Images Created on the Fly
When traveling today bags at the airlines need to be lighter, gear needs to be less... and more effective. Images need to be created on the fly depending on our time at our locations.
We work with you before the big trip to make you more spontaneous, shoot more creatively and see images that you had no idea existed prior to these workshops or classes.

Vicki changed my life for the legit better in every way
This workshop was highly informative. Left me thirsting for more. I was looking for a technical class to learn how to properly use camera settings/functions. Thought I wouldn't like Zoom instruction but I was wrong. I enjoyed it! I am considering participating in more of her classes in the very near future.

I can't thank Vicki enough for helping me to level up
“ Vicki has been the most helpful teacher I have come across! Her helpful nature coupled with professionalism makes her classes the best to learn photography, there is a lot to take in but the classes are very hands on. The assignments really helped when looking at the results - to see what we could improve upon for the next time. I just kept getting better. you want to sign up with her. Recommended!

I highly recommend Vicki as a personal friend and coach
It all Started when I was struggling with the wonderful gift my boyfriend gave me. I loved photography and want to do more than my cell phone... So here it is, a beautiful camera, lenses - "how lucky am I!" I didn't want to disappoint my boyfriend because it was so confusing to say the least. Vicki made it easy after the first session. Then we became friends, and it was one of the highlights of the year. I can shoot on our Cruise and my boyfriend is ecstatic!
