“I want you to know that I started using what I learned in your workshop as soon as I got back to work. Life is so much easier now! I am really enjoying using the tools you taught us. It was worth every bit of Dell's money to send me to Santa Fe.” - Bryan Kuntz

“I wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed your (Palm Beach) workshop and, more than that, to let you know how much I am using the experiences you gave us during the sessions. I find myself thinking back through how you approached problems as I edit my own work and how I might avoid those problems as I shoot. You're a gifted teacher. Thanks!” - Kerry Maxwell (check out Kerry's blog!) “I attended your RAW Advanced Techniques class at Adorama today and took away greater insight on the power of RAW to enhance my work. I realize that one day is too short a time to go in depth on such a robust topic, but I still took away many ideas investigate further. Hopefully I'll be able to attend another one of your classes in the future. Thanks for exposing the possibilities of RAW.” - Paul Vuto “Jean... thanks, again, for instruction, inspiration and friendship.” - Chuck Kimmerle (take a look at Chuck's work) “I got a lot out of the RAW class you taught yesterday at Adorama and just wanted to say thanks.” - Patricio Henriquez “Thank you for a wonderful workshop!! You gave us exactly what we needed… and provided a real boost forward.” - Maria Myrland & Chris Heyerdahl, Norway “I learned SO much and I have been successfully using it with my images. Your course was the best one that I have taken. You are a very good, patient teacher who seems to be very concerned that the student "gets" something out of the time he/she spends with you. I also enjoyed the togetherness of our group, which also made the week special. The whole week was a wonderful experience. Thank you very much.” - Bob Ludwig “Still basking in all that I learned!! Went back and re-did several interior photos - what a difference!!!! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! You were most generous with your knowledge, time and energy...” - Jennie Jones “I still get a kick out of how backwards my workflow was before the Santa Fe workshop. And I love the “oooh ahaas” I get from my friends who work in Photoshop when they see how powerful the layers and masking approach is.” - Andy Aagard “Thank you for your very generous, patient, good teaching…” - Jim Goldsmith “Your… seminar completely changed the way I see and use Photoshop… Thank you.” - Roy Somech “Thank you for your wonderful Portland ASMP workshop… Your teaching is sensible and accessible; your work is beautiful and inspiring; your insight into people is keen; and I can't thank you enough for serving it all up in an appealing weekend. Thanks for lunch, too! ” - Annaliese Moyer “What a pleasure and opportunity it was for us to spend two days in your Portland workshop, followed by the extra day in our studio…Your ability, tenacity, patience and humor contributed greatly to so many ahh-hah moments for me... I have plowed through books, done the DVD's, but your contribution will save my Photoshop life. Thanks Jean!” - Edward Gowans “It was good to see someone else who stresses the overall Photoshop mentality instead of how-to techniques. Some trainers do a disservice to their students by focusing on the tools rather than the process. I was very impressed with your knowledge and your teaching technique and I feel that you have a high level of professional integrity… I truly enjoyed meeting you. When you come back, be sure to let me know. ” - Mark Fitzgerald “Thanks for such a fun and educational workshop. It was a quality program and your presentation and interaction with the students was wonderful. It certainly reflected well on our chapter.” - Dan Bronson “Thank you for your professionalism and guidance at the Fuji [Digital Darkroom Seminar] at [Fashion Institute of Technology in New York]. Your work inspires many people.” - Steve Stathoudakis “Since I attended your workshop, I have been adding more work to my portfolio... What I learned from you has been helping me a lot! Thank you for giving me such a good and practical class.” - Hirotaka "Ken" Kasuga “Thanks for a great workshop last Saturday--your work is amazing!” - Jessica Haverstick I took your [ASMP] weekend workshop in Portland, Oregon... Thank you for the more than rewarding workshop you conducted. Your accessible personality and extensive knowledge made for an incredible weekend.” - Gary Wilson “I want to let you know how much I enjoyed your [ASMP] talk... here in Portland last weekend. You presented the material in a most user friendly manner. This information will definitely change the way I use my computer for editing and printing.” - John Eric Lutz “I have really come to love...working in layers and channels. It has really given me control. Thanks again and [I] look forward to your next visit [to Portland, Oregon].” - Kevin Laubacher “Thanks so much for [showing me how to minimize banding in continuous tone areas of my digital files]... your way to correct the issue was brilliant, and is yet another lesson in how powerful a good command of Photoshop can be. You are a great teacher.” - John Bigelow Taylor “I enjoyed your program at the Soho Gallery last year. You have converted me to using the computer as a tool in my photography... Thanks so much for your help.” - Marie Hickman “Really enjoyed your seminar at the Fernbank [Museum in Atlanta]... thanks for sharing the techniques and the photos. Your collection at Fernbank was fantastic.” - Barry Gilliand “I enjoyed your presentation at [Fashion Institute of Technology in New York]... Thanks.” - Michael Ginsburg “I have just returned from your fine art digital printing presentation at [the] Fernbank [Museum] in Atlanta. I enjoyed the presentation very much and appreciate your willingness to share... Thanks...” - Tom Thompson “I attended your workshop last weekend at Fernbank in Atlanta. Very enjoyable. I am new to Photoshop and, as a result of your [Digital darkroom Seminar], newly inspired to go out and photograph... Thanks again for a wonderful presentation !!” - Stephen Adams “I have been doing photography for 26 years and have been mortified by the prospect of having to learn a completely new set of skills. But it is learn or get left! Your "tutorial" really simplified and de-mystified some of the areas I have been working with” - Nathan McCreery “When I viewed "Trees and Cloud, Tuscany, Italy" it reminded me of a trip many years ago, and I relived the experience. When I went on line and viewed the rest of the portfolio of [your] images it forced me to pick up my camera... I will download the tutorials and begin. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge.” - Stanley Baum “Thanks again for the wonderful presentation [to my high school photography students]... I am always impressed by your words and pictures. Your energy and philosophies are contagious. I'm sure my students will put your comments into their own work... I really hope you know how much of an impact your presentation will have on them. I look forward to the results.” - Sandra Carrion “I...learned how to use masking - layers - adjustment layers, in a way that erases the borderline between a traditional darkroom and a digital darkroom... ” - Erling S. Kristiansen “Very good atmosphere, good group, and a good teacher...Hopefully see you next year!” - Ketil Born “Thank you again for your enjoyable and enlightening talk at the "Vågå Fototreff" last Saturday...The audience present at your talk consisted of a large part of the country's serious amateur photographers and I could almost literally see how lights of understanding kindled throughout the audience during the hour your talk lasted... I do think your talk and demonstrations may have caused a change of paradigm among our amateur photographers.” - Jan Meyer “An e-mail to tell you what a good job I think you did last night at the APA [Photoshop Q&A] event. You... moved it along nicely and I have to believe that everyone [who] attended got something... Thanks again for the good work.” - John Peden “...sincere thanks for the time and energy you put in [to the APA-NY Photoshop Q&A]. I definitely benefited from being there.” - Mark Niederman “Once again - your help has been invaluable to me... You're a good teacher.” - Stuart Zaro “Thank you for the weekend workshop I attended at ICP… Bottom line, the course was absolutely outstanding and amazing as to what you covered in two days. You are so organized and somehow seemed to stay in touch with all of us and our various needs and levels of understanding. The notes are also excellent. You are very generous with your time, materials, and knowledge. I really can't say enough about the value of this workshop. Thank you very much.” - Rosemary Swope
