My first trip with David was in August 2014. My most recent trip with David and, now, Jennifer, was last month, October 2024. In between, I took 6 other trips to places including Death Valley, Anza Boreggo, Yellowstone and Coyote Buttes. I continue to travel with them because, first, and most important, they have scouted the areas and know where to go to find really good photographic opportunities. Their taste is impeccable. They get you where you want to be.
Almost equally important is that both of them are just good people. They are easy to relate to and fun to be around. They are patient and helpful, always concerned with the group and not their own work. And, speaking of their work, if you look at what they’ve done over the past few years, you will see how highly regarded their work is.
I have no doubt that I’ll be traveling again with them.
Hi Mark,
It's always a joy to see you, and your kind words truly made our day! Your continued support means the world to us, and it’s been an incredible journey sharing all these adventures together. We're thrilled to know that our scouting efforts and companionship have resonated with you, and we genuinely look forward to creating even more memorable experiences together in the future. Until the next adventure!
Warm regards,
David & Jennifer
During my private lesson with David, I requested processing advice for several images taken in Death Valley. I was so impressed that David did not take a formulaic approach, but rather, he took the time to discuss my personal style before beginning our session. His first question was: “Where do you want to take this image?”. He clearly wanted to explore and understand MY creative vision, before delving into the technical aspects of processing! To help me gain clarity, he asked permission to make a series of observations around some common elements that he had seen in my work, and asked me to provide feedback on his observations. With this approach, David did so much more for me than helping me process a few images, he helped me to identify, and embrace, my own creative style! I’m grateful to both David and Jennifer for helping me to learn and grow, and I’m finding so much more enjoyment in Photography now that I’m creating images that represent my own unique vision. I highly recommend their workshops, as well as online 1:1 sessions!
We're absolutely thrilled to hear about your positive experience with our private online mentoring session! Delving into your unique creative vision was a pleasure, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to explore and nurture your style alongside you. It's wonderful to know that our sessions have reignited your joy in photography, and on behalf of Jennifer and myself, thank you so much for your kind words and recommendation. We're excited to see where your newfound clarity and passion will take you next!
Once again, David and Jennifer provided us an educational and artistic experience in Yellowstone. Even though the weather was less than perfect, they know the Park so well, they were able to guide us to places that worked well with the weather we had. In addition to knowing the appropriate locations for various conditions and times, David and Jennifer provided both technical and artistic inputs to participants, in the field and classroom.
This was my third workshop with David and Jennifer. I highly recommend their workshops if you'd like to experience interesting places, learn new skills, and expand your photographic artistry under expert guidance.
We're thrilled to hear you had such an enriching experience with us in Yellowstone! Navigating the unpredictable weather is all part of the adventure, and we're delighted that our familiarity with the Park helped make the trip memorable for you. It's always a joy to share our technical and artistic perspectives and to see participants like you thrive. Thank you for your continued trust in our workshops; we can't wait to explore more captivating places with you in the future!
I am heaping praise on Jennifer and David’s Yellowstone Intimate Landscapes workshop. Their love for the park was contagious, and they provided ample opportunities for in field and classroom learning.
In the field, David and Jennifer pointed out photographic opportunities to consider and then gave us the opportunity to discover what engaged us visually and emotionally. If requested, they provided composition suggestions and instruction on techniques ranging from photo stacking to exposure blending.
Each afternoon participants shared images created during the workshop, with one of those session devoted to insightful but friendly image critique. Afternoon sessions also featured lectures on a range of topics, including black and white photo processing and contemplative photography.
In addition to these ample learning opportunities, participants enjoyed the breathtaking beauty of the park and a collegial environment with a group of fun and talented photographers. This was an all-around fantastic photography workshop experience.
Thank you so much for your kind words about our Yellowstone Intimate Landscapes workshop! We're thrilled to hear that our passion for the park resonated with you and that you found the balance of fieldwork and classroom learning beneficial. Your feedback about the image critique and lecture sessions is highly appreciated, and we’re delighted that you enjoyed the camaraderie among participants. Jennifer and I look forward to creating more memorable and educational experiences in the future!
I have just come home from a wonderful week of photography with David and Jennifer -- and 7 very nice and talented participants -- in Yellowstone. David and Jennifer are excellent leaders, knowledgeable and helpful but low key, letting each of the participants photograph their vision, which is so important.
I learned a lot, had fun, and had the opportunity to photograph some amazing landscapes. This was flat out the most fun week of photography I have ever had. Thank you David and Jennifer for an amazing week.
P.S., I will be attending other workshops run by David and Jennifer!!
Thank you so much for your kind words and glowing review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the Yellowstone Intimate Landscapes Workshop and found it both educational and fun. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we appreciate your acknowledgment of our approach to fostering each participant's unique vision. We look forward to seeing you at future workshops and sharing more incredible photography experiences together!
