"Kevin is a fantastic instructor who is extremely knowledgable, friendly and ready to answer any question. He combines classroom instruction with hands on experience while explaining the material in clear, easy to understand ways. I would strongly recommend this instructor."
"This was such an amazing class! It was so fun to take what we had learned in 101, Beyond the Basics, and the morning of instruction and put it to work with real models!! It was great hearing your ideas, talking with others in the group, and then experimenting with our own creativity! I felt like a professional photographer! So much fun!"
