About Janet
I’ve been working as a professional photographer for 20+ years and love teaching aspiring photographers. My specialty is portraiture and candid event photography. I am the photographer for the travel book, 111 Places in Milwaukee That You Must Not Miss and I’m currently working on a documentary series showcasing the people and businesses of Milwaukee. For fun, I love to experiment with pinhole cameras, Polaroid film, and lomography (Holga or Diana). If you’re interested in Souping, Cross-Processing film or slides, or any other alternative film processing, let’s talk!

Do you have a Nikon camera but aren’t quite sure how to use it? Do you often feel let down by the images you capture? Learn how to easily move from Program mode to Manual mode so you can make dynamic pictures you’re proud of. We’ll go over each setting on your camera so you understand how to use white balance, ISO, aperture, shutter speed and more to get great results that look professional and polished. I can also tutor you in Lightroom (editing is required with digital images) so please inquire. I Look forward to helping you!
