Client Testimonials

If you are a photographer and looking to improve your skills, I highly recommend taking an on-line workshop with Sheen Watkins. Not only is her nature portfolio world class, but she is an excellent instructor. Whether you are looking to improve your photo or editing skills, she can patiently guide you through all the intricate details of your subject matter.   NORM

Thank you so much for the 1X1 training on the use of Lightroom cataloging and grouping.  Although I used Lightroom for several other things, I stopped using it to organize folders after I had the catalog crash on me twice in the past.  Although I have come to learn that the type of USB drive I was using contributed to the crash, I was so discouraged that I stopped using Lightroom for that purpose a few years ago.

After Sheen provided training to our camera club, I was encouraged to revisit my approach, which then led me to reach out for a more focused 1X1 session with Sheen.  I so appreciate Sheen’s gift for teaching.  Her knowledge of Lightroom is excellent and no question goes unanswered.  Her kind approach and patience in working with people is excellent.  My session with Sheen encouraged me to not only used Lightroom again for organizing images, but also to improve my back up storage strategy by including Backblaze into the mix. 

Thank you for everything and I highly recommend people to take advantage of your trainings and workshops. 

Money well spent!   DONNA

I had a lovely photography introduction session with Sheen. She took the time to ask the right questions before we met and structured the content perfectly! If just getting started with photography or seeking some inspiration, I highly recommend connecting with her for a session of your own and/or signing up for her tips and articles, they are amazing: Aperture and Light STACEY
