Having done other classes with different instructors; I found this to be a refreshing and easy to understand Class and the instructor admitted mistakes which we could all do along the way.

Just want to thank you for this set of videos on using one light. I figured I ought to start learning with one light before getting into more complex setups. And my current model--unfortunately it is my cat because I don't have a partner here! and my friends are not, surprisingly to me, willing to sit for hours while I fiddle around experimenting (actually the cat gets fed up pretty quickly too)...anyway, these tutorials are engaging, the information is presented in simple (not simplistic, but simple, clear, and to the point) terminology, and the Joel is very personable. Well worth the modest investment in the course. Actually that reminds me of some advice some other tutorial person gave, which was, "Instead of buying yet another lens or strobe or whatever, invest in some education." Which is what I'm doing now that I finally have time to watch and practice what I'm learning.

I just finished the Still Life masterclass and learned so much! Totally inspired by the new techniques I’ve learned. Thanks Joel, you are a great teacher!
