His day and longer trips are expertly planned and based on his extensive experience in the region, filled with excellent food, thoughtful and smart classroom presentations and critiques, practically flawless logistics, and excellent shooting opportunities."- Bryan Scanlon, Walnut Creek, CA

​

“Everything about the Oaxaca Experience with David was just great—shooting locations with plenty of good subjects, helpful image reviews, instruction on becoming a visual storyteller, knowledgeable local guide, excellent food, fun workshop companions and more. David has photo trips to Mexico down to a science. Go with him and have a good time and come back with photos to add to your portfolio."- Eric Ahrendt, Contra Costa, CA​​

"Without exception, this was the best workshop I've ever attended.  Not only was the location spectacular (Oaxaca), but the learning environment was phenomenal.  I learned so many new things including how to use my new camera.  David has ultimate patience and is 100% focused on his students having the perfect experience in a perfectly safe and secure environment. I will be signing up and attending many more of his workshops." - Deborah Cole, Austin, TX
