Our instructor really took her time explaining each component of her lesson plan. My favorite part was getting to be hands on with the material she gave us. -
iPhone Photography
I just got my first iPhone after being team Android ever since I got my first HTC smartphone circa 2010. I'm still getting used to doing things the “Apple way” and PhotoUno's “2-hour iPhone photography class” is an excellent way to accelerate the learning curve of learning to harvest the capabilities of the iPhone camera. We had Francisco (Lyons) as the instructor of the class. We had a small class (4 students) which probably made for a better experience before we all got my individual attention. The class seats up to 9 people. We started the class off with short introductions, then we got into the very basics of photography. Think ISO, shutter speed, aperture, the rule's of 3rd's etc. I already knew most of this, but this was a greater refresher and I felt it was taught at an adequate level for the uninitiated. We got into shooting actually objects and learning about the multiple settings and functions that the stock iPhone camera app makes available. The class is laser focus on the default camera app, and the instructor didn't make mention of any 3rd party apps at any point. Overall, I felt that it was well worth the money. Francisco was great and was excellent at breaking down somewhat complicated subjects to a beginner level. I felt a lot more comfortable using the camera after taking this class. -

The large format workshop was incredible! I had been wanting to get some hand's on experience, but never had the opportunity and was intimidated by the equipment.

I had a great class. It was the first time for me learning about the potential of my camera and Sepia taught me a lot. The lesson was organized for outdoor indoor and editing and answering all my questions. I didn't need to write anything during class and as promised I got the information from Sepia via email afterward. Thank you for a lovely day. -
Intro to Smartphone Photography
Sepia was engaging and entertaining as an instructor, and the class helped me understand the functions of my cell phone so I can take better photos! The cell is the only camera I use, so I might as well know how to. The class helped me do that. -
Intro to Smartphone Photography
Sepia was so engaging and in-depth about photography as a whole, not just related to smartphone use. He took time with each student to show techniques and answer questions. I had no idea how much I could do with the camera on my phone and the quality. Loved this class. -
The Analog Film Lab
Max was super patient and attentive to each students needs, including my own. I came in not even knowing what ISO was. Max wasn’t supposed to come outside with us for the shooting portion but he popped out to help me with my first shot and was really patient in doing so. The class was so informative, fun, and rewarding. I met some really awesome new friends as well. I am definitely booking another class to further expand my film/photography skills. Highly suggest. This class was a surprise birthday present from my husband and it was probably the best present he’s ever given me. -

Intro to Smartphone Photography
I was initially skeptical about a class in smartphone photography--point & shoots & SLRs are one thing, but camera phones?--but there was actually a lot to learn (which really shouldn't surprise anyone given how advanced these cameras are nowadays). It was nice to have the class on Governors Island, on a mostly sunny day, which helped with the class. The course instructor, Sepia Prince, was great; not only is he a really cool guy, but, as a professional photographer, very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend the class for anyone interested in taking better photos with their phones. Highly recommended. Yoni -

iPhone Photography 101
Class instructor Clint Weldon was great. He knows the digital space really well, knowledgeable, and accessible. This class was geared to the vacation user, and creating Instagram style photos. That could have been because of the class, but he knew how to pull it all together for everyone. Left with 4 apps, new gear options, reviewed composition & lighting techniques. Only wished more field time. Lecture was a bit too long for me, but informative. -
