Students Review Digital Darkroom

“Just completed my third post processing session with Christine Kenyon and I continue to be amazed as to how much I learn from each session and the wealth of knowledge coming from this professional. Not to mention how she brings out the potential in my images”. Christine’s teaching style is so laid back that she makes what I thought would be intimidating actually quite simple. I went ahead and purchased one of her “six packs” and look forward to future sessions.” ~ Jim C.

“This trip came together very quickly. It was a Christine Kenyon Run&Gun opportunity. I was asking Christine about locations to capture the Neowise Comet, and she said she was heading to a perfect spot. That night, I shot my first panorama, 7 shots stitched together in Lightroom and edited in Photoshop. I definitely learned a lot from this experience. Many thanks to Christine for this Run&Gun nightscape adventure, and for the many editing tips and tricks.  I am very pleased with the final image!” ~ Ben C.
