Going the Distance

Los Angeles Center of Photography @ 5481 Santa Monica Blvd, Los Angeles, CA

Given the speed with which images made with a camera come into being in comparison to most art forms, the plethora of projects photography churns out isn’t surprising.

Something more than a great project is necessary. Call it identity. It would seem that a series of photographs...

  • Digital Photography Live In-the-Field @ LA Arboretum

    Reviewed by Kelly N on 10/24/2022
    I purchased the Digital Photography Live-In-The-Field at the L.A. Arboretum course for my father for his birthday. He loved it! Mom had just bought him a high-end mirrorless camera, which was above his skill level since he had really only used a point-and-shoot in the past. So, to get him comfortable with his new camera in the field, I thought this course would be a good fit. Dad really enjoyed it and captured some beautiful nature shots and has since created some treasured family photo memories for us since taking this course. The instructor was very approachable, took his time with the students, and facilitated a fun and educational experience. Dad said he would definitely take this or a similar photography class from Coursehorse again, and I look forward to joining him next time, as I also am an amateur photog. This experience makes for a terrific gift. My parents are in their '70s, so I am finding that they value experiences over material items at this age. Therefore, classes from Coursehorse represent the perfect gift for them.
  • Digital Photography Live In-the-Field @ Venice Beach

    Reviewed by ERIC W. on 4/10/2022
    Such a fun course full of ideas and scenarios to try out. I learned so much from Scott about composition and technicals, like how to best use shutter priority or aperture priority, exposure compensation, etc. Really had such an amazing set of moments. If I could do a first-time class all over again, it would be this one.
