Adam's digital photography courses are well developed, comprehensive and easy to understand. Adam possesses expert knowledge combined with the patience of an experienced and skilled teacher. Well worth the investment! You will get more than you expected!

Melissa S.		04-Jan-2010 17:10
This was by far the best photography class I have ever taken. It was well worth the time and money invested. I learned more in a few sessions with Adam on how to turn my work into salable art than I have in 20 years taking pictures on my own. The results were quick to show themselves and immediately implemented. I highly recommend Adam to all levels of photographers.

David		28-Oct-2009 00:45
Adam, your passion for photography is undeniable! I learned so much from two classes I attended: (Mastering your digital camera & Half day field seminar). I'm looking forward to attending another seminar. Thank you for sharing your vast wealth of knowledge. David B

We just wanted to take the time to say THANK YOU for your amazing Photography Workshop. For our 5th Anniversary I knew I wanted to do something special that the both of us enjoy. My husband and I both love our camera and love to take pictures. But we also knew we were not using our camera to our full potential. As you said, it was basically an expensive point and shoot. So we set forth on finding out how to improve our skills and learn more about our camera. After doing research on classes and places, we found a link to your site and I knew that this was exactly the right match and it was!!!! The course was fantastic. You were so generous with your time and knowledge. We learned so much about how to use our camera to the fullest potential and even better we learned how to be thoughtful behind our pictures. Now we automatically think twice before every photo and think about what we did and how we can improve it after as well. We joke with each other about who has the better photo and if Adam would be proud. The setting was IDEAL and the one on one feedback was critical in walking away with feeling like we were given the attention that we needed. We are so happy that you shared your gift with us and highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to take their photography to the next level! You were awesome! Thanks again.

Carla		04-Sep-2009 13:53
I thank you very much for the opportunity to learn from you. I really meant it when I said "no one" is like you! The time we spent together in our private workshop answered my many questions and I feel more confident now to go out and make creative artistic images with my digital camera.

Tiffany		05-Jun-2009 17:03
Adam, I just wanted to thank you very much for teaching me the introduction to digital photography. Your way of teaching is amazing. I learned so much! Your techniques and the way you explain and answer each question is remarkable. I couldn't believe how much I learned and how excited I am to get started with my camera. I was always a little intimated with my camera - but not anymore. Again, thank you very much. I will keep in touch and let you know how my journey with my camera is going. I will also pass your contact information along to anyone who is looking to learn more about photography.

Adam Turow is an outstanding teacher. His enthusiam and vast knowledge of the subject of photography is very much appreciated. I might take the class again, it was that good.

J. Powell		30-Mar-2009 22:16
I have found Adam Turow's instructional digital photography class to be an outstanding opportunity to discover how a DLSR works and more. Adam is a knowledgeable, experienced teacher with an effective easy to understand presentation. Lessons teaching digital photographic principles and techniques are interesting, in-depth and practical. Invaluable information shared during the two hour class is immediately useful, better than any camera field guide or product manual. Several friends interested in photography will be signing up for the next class of Mastering your Digital Camera taught by Adam.

skg		28-Mar-2009 00:18
I am really happy with my photography lessons with Adam. First of all, the classes are small enough that I can ask a zillion questions & have them answered in detail completely, which is like gold because I find with most other classes there's a time constraint and so only a limited number of questions get answered. But in Adam's classes, you can get the answers to every question accompanied by demonstrations, charts, photos as examples, etc. Because of this, I am getting a much more comprehensive understanding of the most minute details of photography. Secondly, Adam's degree of patience is amazing; there are some concepts that are difficult to pick up quickly, and he will spend the time explaining over & again, and in different ways until you get it. This is so valuable because most instructors will only explain something once or twice, then tell you to go over it at home but Adam takes the time to make sure you really understand before moving on. Third, after teaching a concept he shows specific photos that we dissect in minute detail so that we can actually see/visualize how the lesson applies. I am really enjoying learning photography now & after I finish the class lessons, I'm going to take the field workshops. If you're looking for a photography teacher with an easy, likable personality, unlimited patience & who really knows photography, then you should definitely try Adam.

carol clinton		06-Mar-2009 23:17
Adam, thank you! Great class. You imparted so much knowledge! I really enjoyed the fact that I could schedule it on an impromptu basis to fit in my busy schedule, without having to sign up for a 10 week course. I took my camera out with me today, and had a new understanding of how to create exactly what I wanted.

Stella		18-Feb-2009 17:59
When I decided to learn photography by tutoring instead of going to photography school, I had a difficult time finding the right instructor as there are lots of teachers around. I am so fortunate that I was able to find you even though I needed to drive one hour to get to your location. As it turned out, it was the best thing I ever did. Your knowledge and passion for photography, along with your teaching skills enabled me to get what I needed and more in a very short time. Now, I'm anxious to market my photography as I learned from you in our last session on marketing. I 'm also looking forward to joining you for your outdoor photography workshop in the spring.

Scott H		22-Jan-2009 13:29
Without Adam's classes I would still be taking snapshots and not photographs. I have attended 3 of Adam's classes now, beginning with "Mastering Your DSLR" in the spring of '08. If you have a DSLR and are still taking snapshots, run to this class. Before that first class I had the camera on Auto mode all the time and let my camera take pictues for me, since the class I have never had it back in auto mode, I control the camera and the shot , the camera now captures what I want it to.The other classes I have taken are classes on exposure and composition. Adam is an excellent teacher who really takes the time to ensure you are learning and having fun. Adam also takes a personal interest in seeing you improve your photography. I will continue to take classes from Adam because of the above and because after I leave his class all I can think about is going out and putting my new skills to use. Thanks Adam! - Scott

I'm a big fan of instructor/photographer, Adam Turow. I attended two of his classes, Mastering your d-SLR I and II and plan on signing up for the third one soon. Each class was about 1.5 to 2 hours long. Adam was easy to understand, thorough, patient and friendly! His pictures are amazing too!

Nice collection! V

Rob Schwander		26-Nov-2008 01:28
just stunning............what else can I say

Arthur Feldman		19-Nov-2008 22:06
Adam is a superb teacher. He not only is expert in his field but is very adept at conveying all the necessary information and techniques to his students in a clear and concise manner. He is also very sensitive to the different levels of accomplishment of each and every student in the class.

Barbara		18-Nov-2008 19:40
Adam, I thoroughly enjoyed the last three classes that I attended. It was a great review of the things that I learned at camera school- plus I learned a few new things as well. Thank you once again. i have enjoyed your classes immensely and hope to go to a few more.

Jeff		11-Nov-2008 15:38
Adam, I have taken several of your classes in the past few months. I'm very impressed with your artistic talent and knowledge of digital photography. I would like to schedule some time with you on a private one on one basis. My goal is to take my photography to the next level. Please get back to me at your earliest convenience. Thanks in advance for all your help. Jeff Ackerman

Rick		28-Sep-2008 16:33
Adam, I would like to sign up for a private workshop with you. I met you in the field last week and you gave me some really good advice. Thank you for your help that day. I will contact you to to set up our session through your gmail account. Rick

Joe		13-Aug-2008 13:56
Hi Adam, just wanted to thank you for a great class on Aug. 7. I was one of the many people in your “Mastering Your Digital SLR” class and was so glad I took it. I look forward to seeing how soon I can take another class like the one you mentioned about composition. I have a feeling I’ll be a familiar face in many of your classes to come! Thank you and I look forward to our next class. Regards, Joe

Jackie		27-Jun-2008 03:12
Adam, I would like to thank you for the instruction you provided and for the wonderful day spent photographing at the Great Swamp National Wildlife Refuge. I learned more from you in a few hours than I could ever have reading books and working on my own. You saved me countless hours of time and and a lot of unnecessary frustration. Thanks again. Jackie

LATIGID		11-Jun-2008 21:22
My Digital SLR manual finally makes sense. After Taking Adam Turow's "Mastering your Digital SLR Camera Class" , was an AH HA moment for me of " That's what the manual was TRYING to explain. Adam is extremely knowledgeable and talented. He explains what's important to know in an understandable fashion. He uses his own photography showing demonstrations of what certain settings do and why they work. I am eagerly looking forward to taking my next class with Adam Turow!

Lisa M.		11-Jun-2008 21:13
Adam, I just wanted to touch base with you and let you know that I truly enjoyed your class this past Tuesday. It is exactly what I needed to get my feet turned in the right direction. It really helps when you visualize a photo and then are told how that photo was taken, books can't do that as well as a teacher. And you for one are quite a teacher, you are very motivating, enthusiastic and very well spoken. I'm looking forward to reading your blog and again, thank you for being so enthusiastic and informative.

Natalie		29-Feb-2008 19:43
Adam, These pictures are very pretty. I love the photos of the Red Fox.

Maria		29-Feb-2008 02:12
The photography is so beautiful I can`t describe it.

Anne		23-Feb-2008 15:51
Adam, I really like the images on this site, especially the wildlife photos. I also read your blog and learned a lot from your posts. It's always interesting to read equipment reviews from someone who is a working photographer. I have bookmarked your sites for future reference.

Rebecca		21-Jan-2008 15:06
Adam, thanks for taking time to speak with me at the Great Swamp Boardwalk's Bird Observation Shelter last week (1/13/08). I appreciated your advice on Nikon cameras and lenses and look forward to taking your class.

C. A., Parsippany, N.J.		28-Nov-2007 15:53
I knew nothing about digital photography before attending Adam's class. Adam taught a very comprehensive and challenging course. I purchased a camera based on Adam's recommendation and have mastered many of its features. I appreciate Adam's enthusiasm for outdoor photography-it's very contagious. Thank you so much.

Guest		28-Nov-2007 15:41
Great course for both the beginner and intermediate level photographer! Adam's background and experience qualifies him as an expert instructor. The field trip was very beneficial in observing and practicing how to compose good photos but more importantly, was seeing how a professional sets up his equipment and takes a publishable quality photograph.

Carla		18-Nov-2007 15:05
Hi Adam, I am enjoying your class very much. I have been out every weekend to work with my new camera. My goal is to learn the techniques to take photos as beautiful as yours! I look forward to each class. Thanks for a great class! Carla

mark tappe		07-Sep-2007 03:17
Hi Adam, This is Mark, I took your class in Parsippany in the spring I had the Pentax K10D. Still thankful for all your help and appreciation of your technical expertise. Beautiful Images, Cheers, Mark

Poliana DeVane		08-May-2007 02:52
Hi Adam! I would like to thank you for everything you thought me at your class in Parsippany. I learned so much from it and I`ve been taken great pictues since then. Your photographs are absolutely amazing!!

Jenna Kikani		25-Nov-2006 03:28
I took a class taught by Adam and it was great! I've learned so much about photography and how to use my camera. He is a professional who really knows what he's talking about. Great gallery!

Tomasz Dziubinski Photography		03-Nov-2006 00:33
Marvelous gallery :)

Bob		23-Sep-2006 05:47
Hi Adam, I am the guy who met you at the Great Swamp and who you helped and gave much information too. I had the Nikon D70 and you helped me set it up. I have checked out your photo and they are fantastic. Thank you so much for your help that day. Bob

Rob & Amy Lavoie		14-Sep-2006 17:05
Very nice set of pics, keep up the great work

Anton		10-Jun-2006 19:23
Adam is an outstanding teacher. He understands and implements strategies which allow for the learning of technical material in a fun, relaxed, yet highly effective manner. As a teacher for the last 35 years myself and having just completed one of Adam's photography courses, I highly recommend Adam as an instructor. You'll improve your skills and have fun doing it.

Wendy		05-Aug-2005 20:26
Hi Adam - Your website is unbelievable! The photography is really amazing! Very, very nice. You have a real talent!

Debbie		05-Jun-2005 17:02
As a result of attending Adam's class and workshops, I have progressed from a novice photographer to someone capable of producing high quality publishable photos. Adam's workshops and classes are great!!! He is an excellent teacher.

Robert		16-May-2005 23:15
Adam's photography course is well developed and worth the time and expense. Adam presents an excellent mix of theory and practical applications. The level of presentation of his nature photography was impressive and inspirational.

Carolyn Koschnick		07-Feb-2005 02:48
Adam, I enjoyed your images. Someday, I would like to see more of your work. I myself am a fotogirl. Carolyn

Linda		05-Jan-2005 14:17
Adam, Just a note to say thanks once again for a really great class. I am glad I took the class twice, it helped me better understand a lot of the technical issues involved in producing high quality photographs. I' m looking forward to scheduling a field trip with you, and I am seriously considering the Yellowstone workshop as well. Linda T., Parsippany, NJ

Brian		04-Jan-2005 14:43
I found the course well worth it and entertaining. It provided me with some great ideas and techniques. After each class, I�m eager to go out and use a technique or concept Adam explained. His enthusiasm and knowledge are great! Brian G., Parsippany, NJ

Bill		03-Jan-2005 20:40
Very informative class. Instructor�s knowledge and experience in the field, along with his ability to share this information will help photographers of any level improve their skills. A lot of information packed into a 10-week class. Bill R., Denville, NJ

Guest		03-Jan-2005 13:38
