Field Guide I: The Camera
This class was excellent - I've had my dslr for 2 weeks and taking this class taught me all I needed to know to get going in Manual mode. The instructor was wonderful- she clearly explained all concepts and answered all questions. She was happy to show you how to find what you were looking for on your camera. The only thing that would have made this class better would have been if it was warmer out so we could have done more test shooting outdoors.

5 Dollar Fridays: Composition
If you are into photography, great way to invest 1.5h and only 5$. Some useful tips about composition that, even though wont turn you into a Pulitzer award winner instantly, will awake the will to keep learning and taking better photos.

5 Dollar Fridays: Photoshop Basics
The combination of the instructor and space provided for a highly effective learning experience at an absolute deal financially. To provide such an opportunity, in today's economy, is beyond admirable. I will absolutely attend a course in the future and with enthusiasm spread the word!

Crash Course: DSLR (3 hours)
Charles (instructor) was very informative and taught us the basics of DSLR in a simple, yet entertaining, manner. I would highly suggest this course if you have no photography experience but want to learn how your camera works as well as learning how to take pictures away from the auto setting. I would definitely take another course from this instructor and this studio.

DIY Printmaking
Caroline was an excellent instructor, and we learned amazingly easy printmaking techniques in just 3 hours! Would have loved more time to learn more/move to the next level, but I left with the skills to get printing on my own.

Field Guide I: The Camera
I really enjoyed the Field Guide I Photography class. I've had my DSLR for a year and a half and I definitely feel I have a better understanding of how to use it and what those buttons really mean. Kathy broke everything down and was really helpful when we went outside to try our hand at setting aperture and shutter speed. I'm looking forward to getting creative with my pictures! If there is one thing I could recommend, and this is from someone who doesn't have any experience, is a more informative handout included with the syllabus. Perhaps include some helpful url's or tips to remember so students can refer to them after the course is complete. Other than that, I really enjoyed it! 6 hours wasn't enough!

Photography Workshop: Capture Autumn
Great facilitator. Wonderful content. Very hands on. A place to sit for the non field portion of the class would be better than just meeting informally. It was not the best location to hear new content. Otherwise, great experience! Second great photography workshop with BKC. :)

The Hand-Made Book: An Introduction
I liked the class. I kind of wished we learned one more technique. Something more complicated. The Japanese stitch was complicated and I really liked it but I wish there was something else. But otherwise I learned a lot and it was really interesting.
