Studio Seminars (indicated in Brown)
held in my studio 425 East Lancaster Ave, Shillington, PA 19607
All these seminars have limited seating, so please sign up and forward you registration fee well in advance of these sessions. These are part of a lecture series with weekly assignments. Bring your camera and manuals to class. Advance registration is required. Refunds are not offered after the first class session begins, but you are welcome to attend any missed classes during future scheduled sessions.

Business Related Seminars: ( click for link to this page)
Some topics and photo applications may be geared toward specific business related photography, photography used in a business application or photography designed as part of a product sold to third party clients. Examples might be taking pictures for your employer for brochures, marketing, advertising or web use, even though you are not considered a professional photographer or shooting sports, activities, portraits, events and weddings for any type of compensation. As such these photography applications are generating someone income and presented differently than our normal classes which are designed to enlighten photo enthusiasts. Our Business Related Seminars are designed to meet your specific needs and answer questions relevant to your shooting assignments. I encourage the student to compile a list of questions prior to attending the seminar so I might tailor the material to your specific needs. Scheduled at a mutually convenient time. E-Mail me for additional information or to set up these seminars.
