What people are saying

My Clients Know Best…

"I attended the Photography and Pints workshop that Yves hosted and it was fantastic! Yves is extremely knowledgeable and so willing to share his knowledge. I learned so much from this workshop and hope to take some others in the future! If you are looking for some great beginner information to help your photography skills reach out to Yves and attend one of his workshops, you won't be disappointed!"

Simone Cameron

"I attended the Long Exposure workshop in Dorothy. This was not just about long exposure but included much emphasis on composition as well as anything else the participant might want to pursue. Yves was well organized and prepared. The day was a great learning experience from beginning to end. I look forward to attending other workshops."

James Gabbert

"I would recommend Yves to everyone! I've done some Beginner's Photography courses, but the instructions were complex and hard to follow. Yves’ instructions are simple and guide you through the shooting process. I really enjoyed the small group workshops at the Upper Kananaskis Lake. I was really appreciative of Yves’ constructive feedback on my photography and helped me refine my skills. Thanks, Yves!"
