I learned more about my Canon 60D in 20 minutes than the 10 years I’ve been using it. Chill and informative vibe, and a great group of people to learn with. Ashlee is the real deal and an amazing teacher. Wether you live in PV or just stopping through. This class is well worth your morning.

Instructor Ashley is very professional and had even provided a live model for my private class. We met in the oldest part of town along the beach, which was colorful and perfect for various lighting challenges. This is a great way to see the town AND to learn more about portraiture ... while supporting local artists. I was especially happy that Ashley helped me learn some new tricks with my old camera!ritzagarzia

Ashlee was very knowledgable about everything. I have learned about photography before but her helpful tips and walkthrough made all the difference. Most importantly she taught us how to pose our models to get the best looks. She was patient and answered all the questions we had. She took us to several different locations so that we could practice different approaches. If you have any interest in photography it's definitely a must do
