NICE TO MEET YOU
I'm Glenda Christina
While shooting a senior portrait session one afternoon, I asked my model what classes she was taking to help here relax for the photoshoot. She informed me she was taking photography classes but the class was boring.
What? How can photography be boring? After a second senior told me about their boring photography class, I just knew I had to do something. That is when the seeds were planted to start our ACLP photography course.
Mixing important instruction with creativity and fun helped us to put together this engaging photography course that we hope you enjoy as much as we have enjoyed putting it all together.
