Photography is a
series of decisions.
The Photo Professor helps photographers understand why choices work, not just how to copy techniques. Education, critique, and conversation built around judgment, clarity, and professional standards.

This is not trend-based education
The Photo Professor is not built around presets, shortcuts, or chasing what is popular this year. The focus is judgment, restraint, and understanding context.
The goal is not to create copies of someone else’s work. The goal is to help photographers think clearly, adapt confidently, and make photographs that hold up over time.
