“Tom has an endless ability to answer some of my toughest questions and help me understand what seems to be the foreign language of a camera. My favorite is his system for organizing my manual in color coded tabs. Tom’s many years experience and college education as a professional photographer is noticeable and very helpful, and he has a dry sense of humor.”

“Overall this was a great class. I don’t learn well in an auditorium type setting with 20, 30, 40+ people. I took a Jumpstart course and loved the format. Tom provided me with instructions for my Nikon after he found out my version so I knew where in the manual to find things. He was very hands on, showing each of us individually how to do things.”

“Just took Tom’s JumpStart DSLR class today. It was wonderful. I finally know what all the knobs and buttons on my DSLR are for! The custom course book, which Tom must’ve slaved hundreds of hours over, is phenomenal – it’s the most concise intro to photography I’ve seen anywhere.”
