Real ‘Mentors’ listen and advise, set realistic programmes with achievable targets, monitor your progress and reward success with further incentives. In short, the ‘sky’s the limit’ but perhaps we will push you to the Moon and the Stars!

How will you help me achieve my Qualification?

We will guide and advise you in the ‘appropriate’ grade of Photographic Qualification for you, based on our assessment of your work and endeavour to push you to your limits. What we can’t do is guarantee you will pass but our joint track record in mentoring so many of the industry’s well known names to success speaks for itself.

How is this different to every other training course?

We will constantly monitor your professional development for as long as you are with us. No more attending courses for a day and ‘goodbye’. We really care about your progress and will guide you on your quest to become the best photographer you can be. Passion for the craft of photography is something Kevin & Martin will instil within their students.

Are there any hidden costs?

In a word, “NO”! We will not hide anything. Furthermore, should you wish to attend any other training provision by either Kevin or Martin, you will receive preferential treatment in the form of healthy discounts.

FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT OF MY SPECIAL MASTERCLASS….

There is an art to critique and mentoring and it doesn’t come easy. It is far more complicated than applying so called ‘rules’ and measuring images by those notions. Many of those ‘rules’ are grounded in the established world of Fine Art and can neither be used rigidly or retrospectively applied to a photographic image.

In this one-day Masterclass program by a World class trainer you will learn how to analyse, assess and CONSTRUCTIVELY critique images. We will look at the 10 major components in any photograph in depth and to improve your photography and actively assist others in their quest too. This is an essential program for any photographer wishing to achieve at the highest levels of competition and qualification in the industry.

Happy New Year!

Here’s wishing everyone a very Happy and Prosperous New Year. 2012 will see a lot of changes in my many training provisions including quite a number of new programmes and more activity in the UK and Europe in addition to my events in the USA.

On January 5th, my colleague Kevin Wilson and I launch our “EIP-Academy” to assist photographers in the UK and Europe achieve at the very highest levels. For an annual fee payable in ten monthly instalments, our students will have access to two of the World’s leading trainers of Professional Photographers. There are many other offerings out there significantly more expensive than ours but none to surpass the quality and intensity we are to offer.

Latest News on i2i

Not long before Christmas my website was hacked resulting in the deletion of all the content up to that point. It also turns out that the backups made contained corruptions too! Perhaps a cautionary tale when using WordPress based sites! Anyway, please be patient as content is gradually added to this site. The most important immediate events on my 2012 calendar are Imaging USA, WPPI, Texas School and Image Explorations. Each of the main events will have their own page so keep on looking!
