About Your Instructor
Written by Michael Duval / Los Angeles
Mr. Jeff Roush has run a successful, high level, commercial photography
studio in the United States since the early 1980’s.
His client base reads like a “who’s-who” in advertising.
To view his work and read more about his career please visit http://www.roushstudios.com.
Contributing to this success has been his ability to truly understand
the craft of photography and apply it to
every photographic situation that arises. In the developing of these
online photography classes
he relied on his years of teaching, both privately and at the college
level to truly understand the way this material
should to be presented to the student. As complicated as digital photography
can be he has
managed to present this material in the proper way educationally.
Realistically, the best photography learning program if not offered
in an understandably effective forum is a
waste of time and money. Photography, when you strive for excellence
and perfection can be difficult if not
approached and delivered correctly.
His theories of teaching have added to the success of the newly added
Digital Photography Department at
Lambuth University in Jackson Tennessee. He started the department
from "zero",
formulating the program and all of the courses offered.
The University welcomed his knowledge and enthusiasm on the faculty.
His new programs continue to grow each semester.
As a professional photographer Jeff has entertained many different
types of clients and his work has
included customers all over the country.

As you can see, in the professional photographic community he's well
respected among many big corporate clients.
A customer base like this doesn't come accidentally.
It happens through conitinued hard work and perserverance; striving
for excellence in photography with every job,
and with every click of the shutter.
You probably see his work often and don't even realize you are. It's
on billboards, on magazine covers, on trucks,
in magazine articles, in catalogs, on web sites, and so on. Many of
his advertising pieces win awards every year in
Advertising Federation Competitions all over the country. This past
year he added 3 gold awards and 5 silver awards to the collection.
The courses of study that he has developed here for you are the culmination
of this high-level advertising work
and many years of working with amateur, pro-amateur, and student photographers
across the country.
To him a student’s failure is either the fault of the instructor or
the program itself.
Online photography courses are typically bland, expensive, and usually
do not focus you enough
on the education you need. A properly organized course should put
you in a place where you feel like you
have someone directly watching and working with you in perfect unison.
In these courses all of your emails, all of your questions, all of
your assignments, and all of your phone conversations
will be with Jeff, not someone assigned to do it that day. He limits
enrollement to accomodate each new student.
He firmly believes in sharing his ideas, his creativity, his theories,
and his talent with everyone.
Photography is a learning experience that never ends.
We’re never done moving up to the next level of creativity in this
art; we’ll always be learning,
creating, and producing better images.
If you truly want to lauch your own photographic career you've found
the right place to do it.
This program will change the way you think, operate, execute, and
critique your own photography.
Sign up now and get started - I did, and have never regretted it for
a moment.
Good luck with your program!
