    This is a very good training for beginners like me; I was able to get a better understanding of the basics when working with a Family. I agree that there are many other good and mode advanced training in Creative Live. Keep the good job.

    Tamara Lackey has a skill for teaching her expertise that is always amazing to learn from. I saw some reviews saying this sounds like she is advertising her book. However, I never got that feeling. In fact, referring to her book sounds like an extension of this class for those that want to learn more. The Class itself is a GREAT refresher, and it is PERFECT for a quick recap if you are going on location. This class does seem to be straight to the point in a good way, and there are great takeaways, such as her lighting technique and lens choice. I rec​ommend this class : ).

    After reading the reviews, I wasn't expecting much. I actually enjoyed wathcing it thought. I realized I do a lot of thing right and got some good ideas on what to work on. There are no really in depth explanation, but or me that was just the right amount of thing I already knew and needed to be reminded of and things that I can get into more detail in later in other classes.

    Short, precise, reinforcing previous learned issues.

    I really like her for family photography and I took the free live course so I can't complain about the content. As a suggestion, I would say that she shouldn't take so much time talking about her cause.

    I agree with the others that the info was great and useful, but I would have loved to have seen more. While the price of $29 might make one "assume" it's just a little tidbit, I was hoping for more! I love Tamara! I have some of her other classes and it wasn't a waste of money, just would have liked to have seen more ... like even more of the videos of actual shoots. That's so helpful for me ... to see what happens with real live people at real live photo sessions.

    This course was okay. Tamara is lovely, but the content is perhaps better suited for a beginner who knows the basics but wants to start refining his/her skills.
