 We offer courses in digital point-and-shoot cameras, film and digital SLR cameras, sports photography, lighting and some photo-related computer programs. We also have a series of courses geared towards the individual SLR manufacturers, so whether you shoot Nikon, Canon, Pentax or something else, you'll always find the right one for you!
As a reminder for past, present and future students, please book your seat as early as possible. There were many instances in the fall when there were no seats available 3-5 days before the evening of the class. We hate to turn people away, but to keep the group to a personal, manageable size, we are forced to apply class size limits. We hope you understand and continue to check back for new and repeat classes.
