TESTIMONIALS
I love David’s workshops. This was my third time and another amazing trip. It’s not just a photography class but a cultural experience including food and customs. David is always checking in and making sure your questions are answered. He also found a local guide and driver, both of whom keep an eye on you so you feel total safe. My photographer skills improve each trip.
I had the opportunity to be with David for his photography class on the Guelaguetza in Oaxaca this past July 2024. Although it was not my first time to visit Oaxaca I learned so much more this time, and was able to go places and do things that I would not have been able to do without David's knowledge. He was not only an excellent guide and educator but he surrounded himself with others (a driver and guide) who added even more to what was already an incredible experience. I highly recommend this class to anyone who is interested in photography and/or Oaxaca.
As an studio photographer who has taught and attended various workshops, I can strongly recommend signing up with David Coleman... In the workshop, David provided a strong didactic component on his perspectives on photographic storytelling. David knew where to take us and it was obvious he has had a long running relationship with the Oaxacan communities we were visiting. Our group had a great time. David is a patient teacher so if you are a beginner or intermediate level photographer one should feel comfortable.
