Testimonials


 

"I completed the Digital Photography course at Shannow Family Resource Centre in February 2013.   It was an eight week course and it was a great experience to be tutored by Kevin who has so much knowledge of photography and the practical use of our cameras.   I was afraid to touch any button on my camera before the course started in case I upset the settings but now I have no problem at all changing everything around to suit the composition of the photograph I would be about to take.   The course was enjoyable and I got to know the other people on the course and have kept in touch with some of them since.   Many thanks Kevin from Bess Cashell"

"Thanks Kevin for all your great instruction on how to use my digital camera. I thoroughly enjoyed the course and learned so much about how to use my camera and how to improve my images using the software you provided. Thanks for a great course, Michael Rice."
