I teach photography on the National Geographic Expedition ships around the world from Antarctica to Alaska. I'm certified on behalf of National Geographic and Lindblad Expeditions to teach photography at all levels, professional to iPhone shooter. When I'm home in California, I still love to teach, so please contact me for private photography lessons, completely separate from National Geographic & Lindblad Expeditions. 

Photography is about FUN, and so is my teaching style. We'll work on creative techniques that work for any camera, as well as a simple approach to learning the technical aspects of photography, and how to master every button. Frankly though, photography shouldn't be about the buttons, it is about your vision and your ability to capture the moment.
