“Rick – I’ve now taken two workshops with you (2016 and 2021) – both times, I’ve been blown away by your professionalism, knowledge, wit and inclusivity. Learning from you continues to be an enriching opportunity, and I highly recommend your workshops to any photographer looking to level-up their skills.”

“Fantastic. Wonderful. I have learned so much important stuff from you about photography, including about shooting, lens choice and photo editing. Rick’s four days of images and commentary on fine art photography set us all up for great creative work of our own. What I especially liked was how the initial Zoom presentations set us all off in completely different directions. I imagine this is very much what Rick had in mind. You don’t need to know the ‘ins and outs’ of Photoshop to get a lot out of this course. You just need to have an open mind on amazingly creative and positive ways to take your own photography to the next level.”

“Rick most definitely hit a home run. The questions, comments and galleries were all part of this excellent course. I have come away with a renewed love for my camera and what it could do, and a very strong desire to discover the artist in me! Never have I said that before... LOL”

“Thank you, Rick, for such a great course! I feel enlightened and inspired!!”

“Zoom hasn’t slowed Rick Hulbert down, not one little bit. Rick is a gifted teacher, both in the classroom and online, and I have found his teaching in both venues to be of the highest calibre. He combines expansive knowledge with a refreshing humility and humour that allows students to feel confident in what we already know while improving our technical and creative skills. I highly recommend Rick Hulbert’s courses, whether online or in person, and plan to take more of them.”

“Rick’s virtual fine art course was wonderful. I learned so much and the mix of science and art makes so much sense to me. I have several ideas on how to improve my photography and challenges to try in the field. The Zoom meetings and one-on-one session worked great for me. The timing of the course allowed me to digest the info and work on the assignment. I highly recommend the course.”

“Thanks for putting on the FA course. That was one of your most inspiring courses. You hit a home run especially with the handouts of your entire presentation. For a left brain guy like me, this is a really helpful ready reference. You have shown me how to open my eyes, and brain, to get more curious about what I can do with my photography as art rather than photographic records. The course rang my bell for inspiration.”

“While I have attended Rick’s excellent presentations at a local camera club, the Fine Art Photography workshop is the first formal class I have taken with him. Rick is a master of the technical craft of photography as well as an accomplished photographic fine artist. His presentations are exceptionally well prepared and packed with information and examples. Rick’s teaching style is thought provoking, engaging and tinged with good humour.

Thanks, Rick, for encouraging me to step outside my comfort zone to try something new in my photography. Your gallery wall assignment opened my eyes to the value of the artist’s statement and to the power of the series in photography. The opportunities you provided for constructive evaluation of our work, both individually and in the group, offered insight and great discussion. I especially want to thank you for your generosity in helping me to craft an effective workflow. When we are free to head out into the field together, I will be the first to sign on!”
