    My experience taking Thomas's workshop is 10/10! Thomas is a great teacher and does a very nice job of breaking down the manual parts of the camera to someone new to it. This workshop is an excellent value. I will surely be taking any other classes Thomas offers. Looking forward to the next one! Thank you, Thomas!!

    Enjoyed the event. Received lots of good information to start my hobby of taking pictures with my Canon camera. Walking Balboa was fun and I learned and practiced the photography basics. I had time to focus on thinking the settings of the shot before taking it and review of shots taken to answer all my questions. I would recommend the class. The class objectives were met. This class has gotten me more excited about spending time taking pictures with my camera. Thomas is a good teacher and enjoys sharing his knowledge at the appropriate student level.

    Born and raised in San Diego, I've always had a passion for photography and specifically capturing memories. I'm also a huge nerd and wanted to combine two things that I hold very dear to me. Conventions and Photography! I 2019ve spent most of the past 20 years experience shooting everything from families to real estate and products, as well as still life, and also pets. I have a strong idea that minimal editing is needed and to keep things as real and natural as possible.

    Whether it 2019s the energy of an adventurous family or an entrepreneur looking to up their visual marketing, I believe in capturing these unique stories with authenticity and cultivating images that speak to each of them. I want to make sure each image tells a story of the person I 2019m shooting. I truly believe (and it 2019s a little clich e9) that pictures really do say a thousand words. Every individual has their tale and I want to help them capture it.
