I loved the beginning photography class! I walked into the class intimidated by a new camera. After the second night, I walked out with confidence. Chris helped me understand not only what the camera could do, but the reasoning behind its many options. I am no longer afraid to experiment with camera settings. I can now look at a potential shot and know what to adjust to get the kind of picture I want.
I also left the class with a great new respect for the art of photography. I had no idea of the training and skill and talent involved. I have found an awesome new hobby. Thanks Chris!

I took the beginning/intermediate DSLR photography class. It was wonderful. I have taken 2 different sets of 6 week night classes at a college. I learned more in one day from Chris than in both of them. I learned so much about taking care of my camera, aperture priority, how the exposure triangle works, about white balance, metering, using flash, and composition, He is very skilled both in teaching and photography and very patient with questions that were asked. I have been into the store several times since with questions and he is very helpful each time. I look forward to taking more classes. Thank you Chris!

I took a class at a store here in town to only find out the instructor had less than 6 months experience in photography.
When you are ready to really learn your camera, go to Christopher’s class. I learned more in one hour at his class than in the other entire class.
They are fantastic about helping you after the class as well. I bought my Nikon flash from them after shopping the internet. Not only did they beat the price, they taught me how to use it properly. They’re service is impeccable!!
Local service is well worth paying the sales tax.

I took the introduction to photography class from Christopher at Perfect Light in December of 2008. I had no idea that I had no idea what I was doing with my new DSLR camera. Learning and understanding how the exposure triangle works was crucial to the photos I was tasked with taking. Christopher helped me understand the mechanics of the camera, metering, white balance and a number of other important concepts. After giving me a good grasp of the "science" Christopher taught a number of composition rules and methods to help take much better pictures. Before the class, photography was something I had to do for my job, after, it's my new favorite hobby.

I took a different class from a photography/jewelry store in town and I learned more in the first fifteen minutes of Christopher’s course than I did in the entire other class. My pictures have improved 110%! It pays to learn from a professional.
Thank you Christopher!

I highly recommend the beginning DSLR photography course to anyone just getting into photography or anyone just wanting to brush up on their skills. I have owned a DSLR camera for two years and learned a lot from this class about my camera and taking really good pictures. The day after the first class I put some of the tools I learned to the test and was amazed at how much better my photos looked. Chris is a great instructor and I will be signing up for future courses.
