Jan's workshop on street photography was fun. I don't do street photography so his workshop of tips was helpful. thank you Jan.

I took a workshop with Jan back in July, down at the HB pier. I'm pretty new to photography and have been trying to learn by myself via YouTube videos and anything else I can find online. I was kind of hitting a wall and struggling a bit on my own to progress and just wasn't really happy with my pictures, or with my understanding of setting my camera correctly. A friend of mine had done a class with Jan and recommended him. After about 2 hours working with Jan I finally felt like I had the basics down that I'd been struggling with. I HIGHLY recommend taking one of Jan's workshops. Based on that one session, I plan on booking another one with Jan in the next month or so, possibly more.
Oh,,, if anyone is wondering, I'm running the Sony Alpha 7 IV with the FE 24-70MM f/2.8 GM II lens.
