The Black&White photography class was excellent! I could tell that Darrin really enjoys teaching people about photography, and was eager to share his knowledge with all of us. I learned a lot and had fun, too!

Really enjoyed the class. Class size was small which gave us opportunities to work 1 on 1 with the instructor.

I thought the class was exceptional. I?m largely self taught and trying to get much better, so having someone teach while walking and answer questions was more valuable than hours on YouTube. Darrin was patient, included everyone, and offered tons of great advice and tips. I can?t wait for my next class!

Darrin hosts a great class tailored to the needs of each student. Small groups are great for one-on-one questions and help.

The class was enjoyable. The group walked around downtown sharing their different view points and offering advice and suggestions to each other. I recommend this class to anyone thinking about street photography.

I very much enjoyed it. I took Darrin's class more for a means to get myself out shooting more than for the learning experience. I require motivation and signing up for the class is more of means to motivate myself to go. I really enjoy night, urban, and neon photography and this class met all three criteria.

Title or Location: Kauffman Center, Downtown KC
This was captured after midnight on one of the foggiest nights I've ever seen. I was leaving an event with my friends and could not resist the urge to travel downtown and capture the city amidst a dense fog. It was such a surreal feeling, almost no one around. Just me and a foggy city, like I'd traveled into some sort of alternate dystopian universe. As soon as I rounded the corner and spotted the Kauffman Center, I was immediately blown away. I spent a good 45min just around that building. So

I was outside shooting the sunset when this cloud started to build. I turned and focused on photographing the storm instead. I managed to capture several lightning shots, but this one is my favorite of the batch.

Grace Schmidt, one of the talented ballet dancers in the Kansas area, delivered a stunning performance during our photoshoot. It was an incredibly hot summer day, and we were practically melting, but with every click of the camera shutter, I felt the urge to capture more. Grace leaped multiple times with grace and power, and in one of those perfect moments, I captured this incredible shot.

I enjoy watching the sun come up every morning, but this particular morning I sent my drone up to catch the sun's rays before they disappeared. Sunrises over the countryside seldom disappoint.

Around 2 years ago on me and my girlfriends anniversary I took some silhouette shots of us together and she absolutely loved them! So a couple weeks ago when me and her were walking around stocksdale park, when I looked at the sunset I thought it was just perfect and had to take another silhouette shot of us together.

Title or Location: Great Sand Dunes National Park, Colorado
This was sunset time at Great Sand Tunes National Park here in Colorado. Any time of time is amazing there to see this natural wonder in person, but sunrise and sunset times I feel are the best as the ever changing shadows just give the dunes such a different look and mood and changes by the minute, I choose a little slower shutter speed just to soften things somewhat and really like how this turned out.
