Bio

Hello Friends!

As a 25-year creative professional in both the graphic design and photography industries, I have a vast knowledge base that I would love to share with those that are breaking into these mediums, and have the desire to learn in a fun, relaxed and personalized atmosphere. We will work on whatever it is you want to learn, and whatever pace you want to learn it. In other words, no pressure!

Hello Friends!

As a 25-year creative professional in both the graphic design and photography industries, I have a vast knowledge base that I would love to share with those that are breaking into these mediums, and have the desire to learn in a fun, relaxed and personalized atmosphere. We will work on whatever it is you want to learn, and whatever pace you want to learn it. In other words, no pressure!

We can meet up just about anywhere in the KC area, or at your home if its a computer tutoring session. (Unless of course, its a laptop, and you want to meet at a Starbucks or something.) If it's a photography session, we can pick a location that best suits whatever the topic is. The point is, no one wants to learn in an uncomfortable environment, so it's entirely up to you!
I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro,, AfterEffects, InDesign) Mac or PC platform
General Mac OS usage, and Apple based software programs (iMovie, Keynote, Photos, etc)

Spent 15 years as a Hallmark greetings designer, working extensively in Photoshop and Illustrator. Additionally, worked as a Digital Imaging Supervisor for a commercial photography studio in Florida. Currently, I am a Videographer / Motion Designer for a KC based international software company. I love all things photography & video related, and carry my camera with me at all times!

Thinking of starting your own photography or video gig? Even if you just want to meet up to consult about equipment recommendations or evaluations, I'm glad to help.

Please reach out if you have any questions, and if we feel like we can have a successful session(s) that will help you reach your goals, then let's set something up! I look forward to meeting you!

Excellent tutor

Marc was very helpful and proactive in showing me new and better techniques for specific tasks when working with my photos. He kept things basic until he had a feel for my skillset then started introducing the suggestions and options.

Brent, 1 lesson with Marc

I like having Marc as a tutor.

Rather than have a structured class on Photoshop, we work on my specific photos. Marc has been a good choice for me. We have been able to move along at my pace.
