A great class with Stef thank you! The class was tailored to my interests and strengths/weaknesses. My only issue was unclear information initially about the class location. Luckily Stef messaged me the day before so I got the correct location.
Thanks for a great day. I have lots to practice now.
Olivia Sidiq • Sep 2020
Can’t recommend this course enough! Alfonso was super friendly and helpful. His class was educational but also so much fun We learnt a lot about our smartphones camera and how to take the best photos. Thank you again!
Julian • Sep 2020
The photography class was great.
Alfonso was very patient and generous with tips and tricks.
He was happy answer all the questions (however daft!).
We wasted no time in establishing what we would cover during the session, and dove straight in to the practical.
It has given me the confidence to start experimenting with my camera.

Dan's professional knowledge and insight is obvious.
He quickly identified my skills and lack of them.
He tailored the lesson to my level of ability. He helped bring out the best in me and my gear. He is concise and easily understood.
Highly recommend these guys.
This image is a simple exercise to understand different focal methods. Sharp!

Alfonso is an excellent teacher! He took me through the manual settings of my DSLR, gave me equipment suggestions, showed me how to use Lightroom to edit photos, and gave me some great tips for how to conduct a successful shoot. Would recommend this class to anyone who wants to learn specific skills or wants to become more familiar with your camera and get a bit of photography confidence!
Fay Wood • May 2019
Chris Jones was such a great teacher! He definitely knows his stuff, and has a fantastic bedside manner.
I'm so pleased with this purchase; my partner and I might look to use Chris's services again in future.
Perfect for all skill levels.
Chris's own portfolio is a testament to his skill as a photographer, but engaging with him , you realise he's a fantastic teacher and personable individual as well.
Thanks!
Lyn Hutchins • Nov 2018
Chris was my tutor. He was knowledgeable, friendly and informative. I was a little disappointed that the weather turned bad but this gave us an opportunity to sit down and talk about camera settings. I learnt things about my camera that I didn't know about. All in all it was a great 3 hours and I would rebook next time I visit Sydney. Thanks Chris.
Rachel Ang • Sep 2018
I enjoyed the lesson conducted by Chris Jones. I have no prior training in photography or art and so it was fascinating for me to learn from Chris about the way a photo should be composed and what I should look out for. Chris was patient in his explanation and made the lesson interesting and stressless.
Sam • Aug 2018
Excellent teacher and mentor spent the time to understand my son 16yrs old his current level and what he wanted to achieve in the session. Highly recommend his services.
