I love to teach! I spent 34 years as a music educator at all levels from elementary to university. Nothing is more satisfying than seeing the light come on in students' eyes when they grasp a concept. I love seeing the excitement that learning can bring, and this in turn  renews my love of photography

Classes are designed with beginning photographers in mind, and each will be on Saturday and Sunday, 9-4 each day.  For more information, or to register, visit the websites listed on this page. If you have any questions at all, don't hesitate to call or email; I would be glad to answer anything

Astro Photography

Photographing the night sky has been a goal of mine for several years. The past two years I have felt confidant enough in my skils to offer classes on the subject. Although it can involve late night or earlly morning hours, the rewards can be second to none.

I've taken several photography workshops myself, and sometimes, due to class size, I've felt left out, or underwhelmed by the level (or lack thereof) of instruction. Additionally, some of my fellow participants expressed being a bit intimidated when comparing their skills with others in the class.

In my own classes I limit  enrollment to six students, and block out time for individual instruction. Even so, it's hard to fully address each photographer's skill level in a class setting.

The solution? Private instruction. Not only will your specific skill set be addressed, but, unlike classes, date and location are set to accomodate you. In addition, given the amount of time dedicated to you, you will find that the cost may actually be less than a class. You may even find someone of your skill level to share the time with you.

Give me a call or send an e-mail to set up your lesson. You'll learn what YOU need, and have fun along  the way.

Price: $150 per 6 hour day for 1-2 students
