  • Master Your Digital Camera Controls (San Diego)

    Reviewed by iris h. on 10/23/2022
    Definitely it was amazing. I highly recommended. The instructor was thrilled. We took very good photos. I did nit have any knowledge of photography. After the amazing class, I was a pro and was taking photos that catch the eye with the rule of thirds, asymmetrical and leading lines. It was a great class. Thank you Mr. Miller for the amazing class.

    The class was incredible and opened a new door for me after years of photography. Thanks to Francisco’s class I’m confident I can take my photography experience to a higher level.

    Francisco was an excellent teacher, and I learned so much during this time. Can't recommend highly enough!
  • Digital Photography I

    Reviewed by Meryl S. on 10/29/2020
    Amazing! I am a very visual learner so I was a bit nervous about a virtual class, but Francisco provided many visuals with EXCELLENT descriptions to help us learn. Within just 5 classes, I went from not knowing anything about photography (aside from auto) to knowing how to take real images on manual settings. I HIGHLY recommend this class, and I will be back to take advanced classes soon. Thank you!
