Whether you are an amateur photographer/hobbyist that wants to know how to use your new digital camera OR if you would love to learn more about creating your own photography business one day, I am here to help. I love education and am 100% self-taught (with a few film photography classes to learn about lighting) and have accumulated a WEALTH of knowledge in photography by trial and error. I am here to guide you from the basics to running a full time photography business.

Educational packages:

​
