From Sigi Block, Vietnam & Cambodia Workshop Participant

“In retrospect of my recent trip to Vietnam and Cambodia I like to thank Art and Gavriel for their wonderful  help and assistance during our travels to interesting places. I always seemed to be in trouble with my awkward tripod, the technical aspects of my  camera, etc. But Gavriel and Art were present, helped and blocked out the technical difficulties to make a decent shot. How much did I learn!!!  Many, many thanks.  I have a different approach towards photography now. I am not only reporting a trip in images, I am composing my picture. Your way of looking at a scene had quite an impact on my photographic approach. Thank you, Art and Gavriel for inspiring me. Photography  will be a lifelong passion, I cannot stop anymore.”

From Michael Rainwater, Vietnam/Cambodia workshop participant:

Travelling and shooting with Art and Gavriel was an amazing learning experience.  Not only did we get to visit some of the most picturesque regions in the world but we benefited from one-on-one instruction with two of the best photographers in the business.  This was a tour that was geared for photographers who are serious about their craft.  On most days, we shot from dawn to dusk and when we weren’t shooting we were either working on our images, listening to Art’s great lecture series or having Art critique our work.  In the field, Art and Gavriel were very generous with their time – Art would sometimes provide a running commentary as he selected and set-up for a shot, explaining his thought process and the results that he was trying to achieve.  The end result, for me, was a set of images that I am very pleased with and, more importantly, a feeling that I achieved real growth as a photographer from my experiences on this trip.
