I love teaching people photography. We will meet and talk about your interests and experiences and talk about the tools you plan to use. Let’s look at a few photos you’ve taken, and a few photos you love that someone else has taken. Then let’s go out and shoot! The best way to learn is in the process. I will guide you each step of the way. Once we have some new imagery based on photo tips we can edit together and wrap up the day.

Liza is professional, friendly and makes you forget you're in a photoshoot. She has great vision if you're unsure what you want, will work with you if you know what you want and listens to your feedback. Liza helps guide you to look your best without you even knowing it. She also has a great team to help you look your best.
Liza is very knowledgeable but also very relatable. Her classes are packed with technical knowledge but fun and easy to follow.
Liza is a breath of fresh air. She has really terrific insights as to what makes a photo work. From color, placement, perspective, texture and light she is a true artist!
Liza's professional with many years of business acumen. I enjoy working with her because she understands business and conducts herself like a professional business woman.View more recommendations
