Customer comment from past classes

"Just a note to let you know how much I enjoyed the photography class this past Saturday! Christian is a "natural" when it comes to teaching - he really thought everything out - from his slide show to picking out the exhibits to photograph to knowing how to not overwhelm everyone with his obvious camera knowledge! I had a great time and learned so much!! I would recommend this class to anyone, and would even sign up for it again myself! Thank you for the very cool opportunity!"
