As result of this workshop, this helped overcome my fear and concern. The best part is you learn something new by knowing and gain some understanding through photography on the street.”<\/p>\n<p>In all, I highly recommend for those who are thinking about going to Street Photography workshop near you in your hometown\/country, do consider register and participate. Hands down!<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>-Brian Bonitz<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>“An awesome experience. Two days well spent. Thank you Eric. You pushed me (us) hard. But did not seem pushy.<\/p>\n<p>You are a very talented young man who teaches at a level beyond your years.”<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>-Les Faber<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>“Okay, so first things first. I am not a photographer. I don’t even own a camera. My weapon of choice is an iPhone 4 that is always at my side.<\/p>\n<p>A recent mid-life crisis has me looking for things to do that don’t include the word “”work””. An interest in looking at pretty pictures led me to my discovery of Eric’s website and blog.<\/p>\n<p>All it took was a simple leap of faith. Not only did I not feel like a total newbie, but I was warmly welcomed into the Toronto groups arms, never feeling like an outsider.<\/p>\n<p>I owe this to the great group of people that attended last weekends event. But more to the point, to Eric Kim, who is not only an insanely gifted teacher, he is a wonderful and kind hearted person.<\/p>\n<p>I highly encourage all fence sitters, if you have the chance to attend one of Eric’s workshops, you will be handsomely rewarded. For pros and for neophyte’s alike.”<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>-Robert Kahn<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>“Eric, your workshop was such as terrific experience.
