Have you been to a workshop where you spend hours taking notes and then struggle to remember anything when its your turn to try? Have you been to a workshop where you watch the photographers shoot for hours but don’t get to practice much yourself? By the time you get back in the field, you can’t remember anything you paid to learn. How about courses? Most photography educators will just record a video of themselves shooting, or talk to the camera for hours, with no real structure or thought to how to guide you to building on your own skills. Are you tired of taking workshops and not improving as a photographer? Are you afraid of wasting your time and money on courses that don’t improve your skills?
Learning with Josh is different.
The Learn With Josh Difference
With 2 masters degrees in education and 12 years experience teaching young kids, I’ve learned how important it is to meet students where they are and how to guide them to learning. Learning comes from doing, and I’ve practiced for years how to find the blocks holding you back and how to structure content to bring you from beginner to master. The best learning comes when you have a mentor that can push, guide, and critique YOU so you can learn through performing. When the pressures on at a gig, you’ll be ready.

I learned as a teacher hwo to meet kids wwhere they were and to guide them to learning on their own. Just lecturing didn’t work. When I work with my photography students that would be my same approach.
People record long boring videos that you have to watch then try to remember while your on a shoot..
You watch a photographer shoot for 2 hours then try to remember everything while you practice
People get flustered watching other photographers do well while they are overwhelmed. Students are afraid to embarrass themself in front of other photographers who they thing are better than them.
Theres not much time to work on your own skills. You need to be challenged and guided through speedbumps to learn the best.
