Here is a sampling of what clients have to say about working with me. Some are semi-professional photographers who have a photography business in addition to a regular day job and some are aspiring photographers who I tutor in Photoshop, Lightroom and Data Asset Management skills. This from a semi-pro photographer who is a full time mom, holds a full time job and runs a successful photography business …
“I knew that to compete in the portrait photography business in Northern VA I had to strengthen my photo editing skills (photoshop). When I started working with Gerry I got so much more than a Photoshop tutor! I got a mentor, motivator and professional advisor. Gerry has been there to give me technical assistance as well as small business advice. He has encouraged me in my organizational skills & he provides me with easy to understand instructions and I feel empowered after we meet to take my photography to more creative levels. Thanks to Gerry and his support I have been able to focus less on the technical details that tend to overwhelm me and I can focus more on my love for photography!” Marti Mefford Photography

A photoshop tutoring client …
“I needed a Photoshop tutor to help me upgrade my skills as the web editor at NAFCU. Gerry came to my office once a week for one hour and got me established with the basics that I needed to know. He has the patience to teach a “newbie” and the ability to make complex materials easy to understand. I would recommend him to anyone.” David Murray, Web Editor, NAFCU

Two stay at home moms with a serious photography habit …
“We were Gerry’s first two group tutoring clients. Having done our fair share of adult education classes we were not prepared for total immersive awesomeness. We both wanted to make the move from budget photo processing to what the pros use and with hundreds of images scattered all over the place we needed some help. Without making us feel like total newbies, Gerry got us organized and showed us how to stay that way. His easy to learn and fun way of presenting has made this a great experience and keeps us coming back for more.” Chloe Spielman & Nancy McNulty, Photoshop Moms.
This from an aspiring photographer and full time mom who wants to learn Photoshop so she can take her small home-based photography business to the next level…
“As someone with absolutely no Adobe Photoshop experience, choosing Gerry as my tutor was the best decision I could have made. He is extremely patient, has flexible session times, and is very knowledgeable. Gerry is committed to making sure your understanding of how to use the program is clear and understood, and not just while you are learning in his studio. He is very receptive to emails and responds in a quick and timely manner. The advice he has given me in starting my own business has helped me tremendously. I look forward to working with Gerry for a very long time.” Melody Campbell
