We have a different photo theme bimontly and the two hour sessions take place in different outdoor locations around Phoenix. It's a great opportunity to try something new with the guidance of a professional photographer, and come away with some new shots for your portfolio or album.

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

Complete beginner? Please complete a Beginners Photography Class before attending a regular group session. This is a 3 hour structured workshop where you’ll learn the basics of using your camera with more 1-on-1 time with the instructor. Scroll down for dates.

What to bring? We recommend bringing a camera that has full manual mode or semi-manual modes (Aperture or Shutter Priority). Compact cameras and smartphones also welcome!

What’s involved? Each session starts with an introduction to the theme, and the photography instructor will chat about the camera settings and techniques to use. You’ll then have time to take lots of photos, with the instructor present to answer any questions. You’ll receive feedback and have a chance to chat with everyone to share tips and ideas. We’re a social bunch!

After group editing session. After each group the instructor runs an optional 1.5 hour critique, select, and edit session to help you improve your important post-shoot skills. While much editing can be done on modern cameras, it's best to bring a tablet or laptop with editing software to get the most out of this session. Select this option when booking to attend.

The meeting point and full details for the day are sent in the booking confirmation email to the email address you provide at time of booking.

It was a very instructive. I am in total beginning stage of photography, did not understand anything about manual use of a camara, always used auto settings. This class gave me enough information to start using my camera manually. Love the class, great instructor and attendees.

A beginner's class is challenging as the instructor must gauge each person's comprehension along the way. Jimmy Sullivan was excellent. Class size was perfect, and Jimmy stopped along the way to make sure we were all caught up with each other so it never got overwhelming. I will definitely take more classes.

I think it was great. The location was wonderful and provided a lot of opportunities to play around the the angle of the sun and shadows. Jimmie is a great teacher too; he checked up on us frequently without hovering.

It was nice to get out with a seasoned photographer. He was pretty busy with the folks who were new to photography but made time for each of us. He was ready for questions and knowlegable.
