when you are ready to talk.

      If you are not happy with the quality of your images or you think that you have room for improvement in your photography experience,  you should consider hands on,  individual, one-on-one photography tutoring to move up to the next level.

      I specialize in providing photography private lessons  or photography mentoring, doing a lot of face-to-face, hands on teaching. Some regard me as a photography coach or trainer. Although my base of operations is in Columbia, South Carolina, I have had students fly in from as far as Richmond, Virginia.

     I also teach short courses at  Midlands Tech concentrating on digital photography, be it the Digital Darkroom or the Creative Use of Your Digital Camera courses.  I am also Adjunt Instructor at the University of South Carolina's College of Journalism and Mass Communications, where I have taught  Introduction to Photovisual Communications a couple of summer sessions.

      In the "Learning opportunities" Tab you will learn about the various topics that I teach: among others  -  travel photography, format and composition, wedding photography, mastering action/sports photography, pre-visualization, lighting and the technical aspects of depth of field, f stops, aperture, focal length, shutter speed, ISO and their interrelationships.
