Very nice group of people and made sure every detail was planned out thoroughly. Ron, who was our photographer instructor, was very good as laying out how our camera works. Very nice introduction.

Christine was excellent in giving m important information about how to set my aperture, shutter speed and how to look at the subjects in order to get interesting photos. I highly recommend this experience!
