About James
I am a master photographer with four decades of professional experience and a published photographic artist with work accepted by the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, the 1st renown museum to accept photography as an art form.
My Studio is fully equipped and designed to be an inspiration to any person wanting to expand their skill and ability as a photographer. My tutoring will help you to achieve this goal. I love photography and will share the passion with you.
The best place to find out more is (concealed information) and call my private line (concealed information)
I started teaching in the early 1990's for Adult Education classes given at Martha's Vineyard High School, and have continued doing so through the years at various venues.
[I also taught video production at the Wampanoag Tribe for the State of Massachussetts.]
I was in-house photographer for Vivitar Corporation, which was at the time a large camera, lens, flash, etc. manufacturing company. They also put me through additional education at UCLA in photography to supplement my TV/Film degree.
I have four decades of experience in all aspects of photography, to include commercial work for large companies such as Estee Lauder, work for events for companies such as Lotus & Boston Scientific, over a thousand weddings, thousands of portraits, postcards, posters, art, etc.
About the lesson
- All levels
- English
Languages in which the lesson is available :
English
I discuss their interests in photography (portrait, landscape, etc.)
I find out their desired goals from taking photography lessons.
I try to learn what level they've already achieved in order to best advance their skills.
I ask about their equipment so I am prepared to teach with their equipment in mind.
Many levels from teenage kids to adults of all ages. I mentor a former Doctor of Psychology and a retired Boeing 777 pilot for the last several years.
I'm a photography teacher, and select a couple of others to meet and talk with. A personal connection is always best.
I love and have a passion for photography. I think the people I mentioned that I mentor right now show me their gratitude with their return of enthusiasm as they grow as photographers. But I'm fond of seeing each student advance in their photography passions.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Possibly you find yourself photographing the same subjects most frequently and this tells you your main interest to which you'd like to improve your knowledge and skills. Possibly you simply want to feel you're in control of your camera and equipment, instead of always being on auto pilot. Knowing thyself as best you can is always an advantage.
Reviews
All the reviews collected from students are verified by our team. They are therefore reliable and correspond to a real experience with James.
Perfect! I have had the pleasure of learning photography and how to operate my mirrorless camera with James. He is extremely patient, easy to learn from and teaches in his studio which makes for a great setting. I am 3 classes in and couldn't be happier with my choice to learn from "James Schot gallery Studio". You won't regret it.
-Maidely A.Excellent! As a student, the one-on-one time is perfect for me. It allows us to discuss the specifics about the field that I wish to pursue in my Photography career.

Very knowledgeable
Amazing experience, with only 2 sessions I am already taking great pictures. I didn’t know anything about my camera Canon 5D Mark IV and now I am feeling a lot more comfortable with it .
James was extremely knowledgeable.
A great experience! James is an excellent communicator and made it easy for us to learn
James gave me a better understanding on how to improve my picture taking not only with my camera but also with my cell phone!
I'm very pleasedPatience and saavy
I was impressed with Mr. James Schot’s talent and expertise in the field of Photography. His approach to the art of photography is fascinating and unique. His work speaks for itself, it challenges your intellect and your senses.
Thanks ever so much for spending time with Lydia and me last Friday. Honestly, I don’t think I’ve ever experienced a true photographer’s studio before.You really were quite the gentleman and educator for us . I’m most appreciative.
As a photographer, he has a strongly intuitive creative eye. Beyond mainstream work, he has tried and successfully experimented with different “mediums” of expressions of light. He has a deep passion for this form of art. As a workshop leader, James brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to his workshops. With over 35 years in the industry he knows what he is talking about! He has a hands-on teaching style. We were both hearing and seeing the topics at hand with short mini 10 minutes “lectures” followed by practical hands-on demonstrations in his beautiful, well equipped studio. He makes room for questions and will navigate the directions of the session accordingly to the topical concerns of the participants. Be inspired by his creative energy and take advantage of his many years of experience; you will be glad you did.
