Digital Photography Bootcamp for Beginners

Schedule change to the first 2015 Bootcamp sessions

On behalf of the Omnilargess Team I want to wish everyone a happy and healthy new year. As you know we are moving to our new location in March and this has made it necessary to reschedule our popular Digital Photography Bootcamp for Beginners to later dates as outlined below. I am sorry for any inconveniences this may cause, but the changes are unavoidable.

If you have already registered for this Digital Photography Bootcamp, I have sent an email outlining some options and if you wish to keep your registration, I will transfer your tickets to the new dates and location.
