“A clear and concise overview of wildlife photography”
Your photography workshops are unique. Even before I had registered for a workshop, you were responding to my emails. I had many questions from the technical to the philosophical. You always answered promptly with thoughtful and detailed responses. During the workshop you made sure I was getting what I wanted and needed by personal attention and by spending extra time beyond the workshop schedule. I particularly appreciated that you provided instructional materials and a webinar prior to the workshop. It far exceeded the instruction in any other workshop I have attended. The workshop itself was well organized and you structured our class sessions to be great learning opportunities to support our photo sessions. I also very much appreciate having your book. It's a clear and concise overview of wildlife photography and I carry it with me in my camera bag and continue to use it as a reference. Most of all I thank you for your sensitivity to wildlife and your approach to photographing them in respectful ways.

“She clearly exceeded my expectations.”
Kathleen is a professional photographer specializing in wildlife. I have been fortunate to have enrolled in several of her workshops, in Arizona, California, Botswana and South Africa. She clearly exceeded my expectations. Not only does she understand the ins and outs of photography, she has a very good handle on explaining and demonstrating her craft, is a pleasant person to be around and easy to work with. Kathleen has recently made a major career move that all photographers can envy, to devote herself to become a full time photographer and workshop facilitator. I heartily recommend that if you want to upgrade your own photo talent, to enroll in one of Kathleen's upcoming workshops.

“I would not have been able to get so many beautiful shots without her steady help”
I appreciate all the help Kathleen gave me more than she will ever know. I would not have been able to get so many beautiful shots in the snow of these beautiful animals without her steady help. I am not a photographer but an artist taking pictures for reference. I don't really get cameras, and all the settings for different lights, speed of animals and so forth. She helped me throughout. I was at Triple D a few years ago and lost about half of my photos of the white arctic wolves because of not knowing how to work with my settings on my camera. This shoot was all in the snow and I would not have attempted it without knowing she would help me. Kathleen was also very conscientious about taking care of all the many details involved in setting up something like this. Also, she is a lot of fun. I would recommend her to anyone that is interested in shooting pictures of animals anywhere.

“Everything was superb: Kathleen as instructor; environment, roaming animals not caged; wide variety; virtual access.”
This was my 5th visit, each one different. Enjoyed sharing with other serious photographers. Nice to be able to enter park before sunrise. One of my favorite pictures was a lion's mane highlighted by the sunrise behind him. Raised platforms allow photographing animals without bars or fences blocking the view. Owners usually around, much like a family sharing their home. Other photographers very considerate, not "hogging" sites. Kathleen had pre-training session night before, refreshing techniques. Also, thought meeting everyone helped bond us as a group. In all, Out of Africa a wonderful experience whether you are a serious photographer or not.
