    WHAT WE DO AT DCP
    Since our first test classes were offered at the (then) Spot Studio in 2009 we have had more than 1600 unique clients come to us for photography training. The feedback and reviews have been overwhelmingly positive and we are expanding to offer a full range of classes from basic camera operation to immersive, 6-day workshops with nationally recognized photographers and teachers.
    HOW YOU FIT IN
    If you're just getting started, consider the DSLR Evening Classes or Beginner Full Day Workshop. If you're already comfortable with the basics and want to advance your photography, look into one-on-one tutoring, a multi-day workshop, software or other specialty classes. Join us for a movie night or attend a lunch talk or gallery show. We look forward to meeting you at the studio.
