Classes
I teach classes because I enjoy helping people learn. I especially enjoy it when I can help someone get past a barrier, such as showing them that shooting in manual mode or using Photoshop isn’t that scary.
Adult Digital Photography Classes
5 Session Course
This 5-session course is designed to teach adult students how to get the most out of their cameras and how to photograph a variety of subjects. It is for beginners or those who want to brush up on their skills. Instruction includes discussions of camera settings, equipment choices and composition. This course also covers sports, event, landscape, wildlife, lightning, firework and night-sky photography. You will get the most out of these classes if you have an interchangeable-lens camera. Photography using cell phones is not covered. You have the flexibility of registering for the classes that suit your learning needs and your schedule. A discount is given for signing up for all 5 sessions.
All sessions are held at UCCS Downtown at 102 S. Tejon in Colorado Springs.
Adult Photoshop and Lightroom Classes
7 Session Course
This 7-session course is designed to provide students with a wide range of photo-editing skills. Participants need a strong set of basic computer skills to attend these classes. This is a hands-on learning experience in which everyone will be provided a set of photographs to work with in real time as a technique or tool is being demonstrated. You will need the latest versions of Photoshop CC, Lightroom Classic, Adobe Camera Raw, and Bridge installed on your computer. Use of a mouse is highly recommended. Photoshop Elements is not taught in this course.
