This workshop completely changed my approach to portrait photography. John is an incredible teacher who makes complex concepts easy to understand. Worth every penny!

Hands down the best photography workshop I've attended. The small class size meant lots of one-on-one attention. I learned more in 2 days than I have in years of self-study.

John is so generous with his knowledge. The hands-on practice with real models was invaluable. Highly recommend!
