Photography Education

In Person : Retreats, Workshops, Tours, Coaching, and One-on-One.
On-Line : Unadided, Interactive with instructor, and Mentorship.
My goal as a photography instructor and mentor is
to show you how enjoyable photography is. After all your personal enjoyment matters. Grab whatever camera equipment you have and let’s go have a peaceful and enjoyable outing. I’m a firm believer you do not need the most expensive camera and gear to enjoy photography. I love the challenge to create that photograph in my mind to film oh wait digital today. The creative side is all yours there’s no equipment or computers that do the creative side which is the enjoyment of photography to me. I preferred to create the photograph in the field and camera, instead of the computer. However, there are no firm rules in photography. You can create your photograph anyway you like with the camera and apps in post processing. It’s your photograph and your creation. Kenny Rogers
