HCP Instructors

We've got a solid roster of instructors here at HCP. Our instructors together have a wide variety of experience in photography, having done professional work that includes fashion photography, editorial photography, studio portraits, and fine art, among other types of projects. They bring their experience into the classroom to share with students not only their passion for photography and the creation of the photograph, but also technical know-how, tips and tricks they've learned through their own work, and the critical feedback an emerging photo-maker needs in order to improve his or her own work. Beyond photography, our instructors are experienced teachers, currently teaching or having taught at such other institutions as Rice University, the Glasscock School of Continuing Studies, the University of Houston, Houston Community College, Lone Star College,and the College of the Mainland, to name a few. We really think they're a swell bunch!

Take a look at their individual pages to learn more about each instructor's experience and to see examples of their work.
