“I had no idea walking into Marcus Donner’s workshop just how valuable it would be. I’ve been around journalism and photographers for years, but I came away from the workshop with a whole new grip on what really matters in photojournalism. I learned just about as much there as I did in a whole miserable semester in a photojournalism class back in college.”

— Robert McClure, Reporter, Seattle Post–Intelligencer

“Your two—hour "basics of photography" workshop was just what I needed. For me, the workshop was interesting and straightforward — and, most important, useful.”

— Randy Beam, University of Washington journalism teacher

“In simple, easy steps, Marcus Donner taught our class of professional journalists how to snap crisp, colorful images to enhance our stories. Some writers barely knew how to operate their digital cameras, but by the time we left his class we felt like pros.”

— Candace Dempsey, Food and Travel journalist/Writing Instructor

“As broadcast journalists, we’re being asked more and more to take photographs for the web. Marcus’ workshop talked us through the basic principles of photography as well as what we need to keep in mind when shooting for the web. Not a minute of the workshop is wasted and you walk out inspired and ready to go! Since his course, we have been taking better photos and all of us have enjoyed it more, too. I highly recommend it!”

— Erin Hennessey, News Director, KPLU Public Radio, Seattle/Tacoma
