Photography Lessons

I continue to get requests to do some lessons. So thinking out loud - here's what I've come up with:

BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOGRAPY LESSONS

$100 PER LESSON. 1.5 HOUR LESSON.

MINIMUM 4 LESSONS. during the course of a month.

The reason for the 4 lesson minimum is - let's only take serious people. You can't expect to get what you need in an hour-and-a-half and there's going to be some sort of assignment for each session so you can do things on your own. I can if you like combine two lessons into a 3-hour lesson.

First half hour is an evaluation (let's try and figure out what you need).

The concentration is black and white output, but there are so many possible areas: digital capture, film development, inkjet printing techniques, photoshop techniques (uh, that is vague but geared towards the b&w print), useful photoshop plug-ins for b&w, street shooting, urban landscape (composition - bring a tripod), rangefinder shooting technique - in other words, anything that I know something about is fair game.

I'm guessing that every person is going to arrive with different goals and different expertise so I would like, as much as possible to tailor it to the individual.

Note: All of this in my state-of-the-art, fully equiped, smoke-free studio (studio can fit two comfortably). Have I left anything out? Let me know.
