Testimonials

For the past twenty years, we’ve been thrilled with the people who have trusted us with their photography education. And we are humbled by the number of people who come back time and time again. Our students are more than just our clients, so many have become friends - in fact, Tony even married one.

I REALLY loved the course. Learned a ton, and my vision as well as my appreciation of light and shadow, especially as it applies to portraits is increased 10x.

Thanks,
Oliver J

I learned so many pertinent concepts in the class and it awakened my passion for photography.   You did an excellent job of simplifying tricky topics like lighting ratios and complementary colors.  Plus your down-to-earth teaching style is really effective!

Tony, you simply are the best of the best. 40 years of taking pics and I've learned more in 3 days than a decade of books and videos. My sincere thanks. I can only hope to be so lucky in the near future to again see you on Creative Live.

Tony, You are the best teacher! Thank you so much for your humility and your teaching skills. I used to get discouraged when I made mistakes but when you said you've learned from your mistakes it made me want to move forward even more. You have given me the confidence that I need to know exactly what I'm doing. I know I still have a lot to learn but now I'm on the right path. Thank you so much!

This has been a fantastic workshop, with more concepts and ideas than I could ever have got even with a college class on this.



Tony - thank you thank you for your incredible teaching - detailed, thorough, completely approachable and unpretentious, specific. You make it obvious how much work you have put in to learning your craft and at the same time make it obvious that we can learn it as well. Our emotions make us feel there is some magic we just might not have, but you take us behind the curtain. Thank you.


I can't tell you how much I've enjoyed your class so far.  People are tired of hearing me talk about it.
