Here is what one safarian had to say about the Natural Light Portraiture Safari:

It was a great afternoon strolling through Fells Point. Our instructor, Vickie, set up locations to use and why, showing us how to communicate and instruct a novice model. I will continue to take courses from this group, especially if Vickie is the instructor. — Jay B., Hyattsville, MD
