    Everything I have purchased has been 100%! Recently I purchased the Cole’s Clique I need to push myself a bit more no other photographers where I live were even willing to help. Best purchase ever! I have learned so much that I never knew existed or how to use! Thank you Cole for being so patient and kind!

    These presets have transformed my photos! They go from good to great! I get the “oohs and aaahhs” when people looks at my photos now. They give them that “edge” that was missing while cutting down my processing by many hours. I typically can just use a preset, adjust the exposure and shadows slightly and that’s it!

    Hi Cole, I just used your newborn lightroom presets for the first time and WOW!!!! I have purchased other newborn sets and nothing has worked the one click magic that your presets do on angry blotchy newborn skin. The “Soft Creamy Color-Neutral” is a dream preset, and “Pink Pastel” adds the perfect something….. You have just saved my hundreds of hours of sitting in this chair! THANK YOU!

Meet Cole It was a summer day in 2008

inside the dingy halls of corporate America when I decided to become a photographer. My closest friends and family laughed at me and thought I was crazy… I don’t blame them since I didn’t even own a camera but I didn’t let that stop me.

We’ve been hired to travel across the globe to photograph weddings in some of the most picturesque places. But as much as I love photography, I love helping others grow their photography talents & reach their goals even more and that’s why I started Cole’s Classroom.
