Sawtooth Photo Pros
2017 Class Schedule

We're doing something new in 2017 with the introduction of our BLACKBOX, LIGHTBOX, BRAINBOX, and MATCHBOX series. Along with our popular multi-session classes, we're also announcing single session classes tailored to specific needs.

steamertrunk What's in the box?

If thinking outside the box isn't getting you anywhere (enough, already!), we've built some beautiful boxes full of good stuff just for you. And you can mix and match them any way you like.

BLACKBOX classes cover camera theory, skills, and techniques.

LIGHTBOX classes include Lightroom and Photoshop instruction.

BRAINBOX classes explore our own imagination using composition and creativity.

MATCHBOX classes are combinations of the above.
