Core Classes
We are currently conducting all of our classes virtually. Classes are offered weekly and can all be attended by signing up online. We save most of the recordings for the classes for one week after the class. They run approximately 1 hour in length, with 30 minutes of Q&A at the end.
As classes tend to present general overviews on a given subject matter, please be aware that not every function specific to your camera may be covered as a defining element of the class. We highly encourage you to have your camera handy, along with any photos you've taken that you'd like to get feedback on from your instructor.
Seminars
Offered throughout the year on a variety of topics and disciplines, our seminars are typically presented by an all-star lineup of world-class industry influencers and expert instructors. These events tend to be conducted in an auditorium style setting and are typically held off-site at a variety of venues across the markets we’re located. At this time we are hosting many of these seminars on our virtual platform.
