I've been a professional photographer since 2001 and have a wide range of photography experience, including many years photographing babies and children. I've taught photography for fifteen years to professional photographers, enthusiasts and teens through group workshops, private lessons and online classes. I'm recognized as a Master Photographer by the Professional Photographers of America and was also awarded the organization's Photographic Craftsman degree in recognition of my work teaching other professional photographers.
Homework Offered
Each week will include a photography challenge in which the student will apply what they've learned by creating one or more photographs. Students will also review and analyze food photos taken by a variety of professional photographers.1 - 2 hours per week outside of class
