“Lifesaver!”

“I really needed the skills that David was able to bring to this task. I had been using Lightroom for a while, but never really grasped the organisational complexities. I think it would have been impossible for me to get it all sorted out on my own. David is a master, showed me exactly how to set it up, sorted out all my old setups, and now I’m all set. Next lesson will be to start improving my LR techniques, looking forward to it. Bottom line, incredibly grateful to find somebody with David’s depth of knowledge who could work with me on my setup in a custom way.”

Thanks!

“It took me a good while but I did get my photos re-linked, thanks to your patient forensic troubleshooting to work out what the problem was and how to fix it.”

“Excellent Teacher – D.A.Wagner is the absolute best in the business!”

“David is a superb tutor and consummate professional. With his combined years of experience in both Commercial Photography and Teaching – David brings a phenomenal amount of knowledge and seasoning to the sessions. His classes are chock full of information and insights. I needed to unlearn some things I learned as a PC user; organize my existing 20,000+ photos (which were scattered all over the hard drive and were scaring me); and learn how to use LR correctly going forward to maximize my organization and processing at a more professional level.

David has the multiple abilities and skills to make sense of my chaotic style and computer issues; move me along at a nice rate on the creative and artistic side of developing my photos; and offer first rate tips and techniques based on what I want to accomplish with LR and my photography. As a person, David is sensitive, patient, and kind. He has demonstrated a wonderful sensitivity to my artistic vision, and so much patience. The sessions fly by – he makes it fun. For the new customer looking for an excellent tutor- you need not hesitate. I recommend him wholeheartedly. He is excellent!”

“Great Working With You”

Thanks, David.  Great working with you.  I learned a lot today.  There’s so much more in Lightroom than I knew.  You’re an excellent, knowledgeable, patient teacher.  It’s a great comfort for me to know you’re there to answer my questions as I learn how to get what I need from Lightroom.”

“A Terrific Tutor”

“I feel very lucky to have found David as a photography tutor. He is professional, patient, kind, intelligent, and most importantly…tolerant of my endless questions. My sessions with David are fun and painless… I only wish I had found him sooner. Would I recommend him? My answer is a definite ‘yes’.”

“Great Tutor – Great Lesson”

“I spent a few hours with David both shooting and editing my photos and was extremely pleased. David carefully selected a location for our shoot that provided me with the opportunity to learn and employ different photographic techniques and to deal with different lighting problems. David is a working professional photographer and effectively passed along a slew of practical and theoretical tips about composition, layering, depth of field and other matters that I was able to put to good use during our time together.

I especially enjoying taking a series of pictures that we later stitched into a large panorama when we progressed to the editing portion of our time together. David has a deep knowledge of photography and is a wiz with Lightroom and Photoshop – and with Mac computers in general. Among other things, David reviewed and explained all of my Lightroom and Photoshop preferences and helped me understand the different options and coordinate my choices and actions so that I could quickly and efficiently transfer images between Lightroom and Photoshop.

David is an enthusiastic, organized and patient teacher who inspires you to grow as a photographer and to learn more about the creative and practical side of photo editing. I look forward to our next time together and recommend David as a photographic and editing coach without any hesitation or reservation.”
