Workshop Testimonials
“James was a great instructor.
His practical experience along with his
laid back attitude made the day fly by.
I learned more in one day with him
than I did in the last three months. Thanks James,
for taking the time and relating to our needs
and showing us how to get the job done right.”
“I sought out James after seeing his amazing lighting skills online. I was impressed with his passionate teaching style and detailed answers. I am still new to the dramatic lighting field – especially with reflectors and outdoor lighting so James was a huge help in getting me to learn new techniques outside of my normal equal powered flat pinup type lighting.
I had taken other photography classes where the instructors rambled on and on and still never seemed to answer my questions. With James it was the opposite. He clearly explained all of the answers to my questions without taking up the clas time.
James is extremely knowledgeable not only about photography and lighting though I was also pleased to find out. He gave myself and the other classmates some very valuable tips for photo editing in Photoshop as well. Furthermore, he gave me some hands on tips for traveling with my lighting gear, working with models and shooting vehicles.
James is a hip, modern and young photographer who seems to be born to understand and teach all aspects of photography. His brain seemed to function at lightning speed and to always have detailed knowledge for our class. There were no dulls in our 9 hour class day.
I was very pleased with the knowledge I gained in one day with James. I look forward to future classes as well as hiring him for difficult lighting project shoots as a director.”
