DALLAS Photography Classes

Light Tec is devoted to photographers and photography. Our Dallas location offers classes to help you improve and/or learn new skills.

Classes are purposefully limited in size.  The classes are not lectures, but seminars where participants will learn and then shoot.  Each participant is responsible for providing their own cameras, lenses, and film or cards.  The lighting equipment and accessories described for each class will be provided for participants use by Light Tec.
