  • Who can attend? Open to all skill levels, from beginners to keen amateurs. The photography instructor is there to help you with camera settings and provide any advice you need.

    Brent was a fantastic instructor. He is knowledgable and passionate about photohraphy. He answered all questions without ever making us feel like we asked a dumb question. The River Walk was beautiful, I had never been there before. I am now not afraid of manual mode.
