Our group of talented photographers captured the essence of the festivities in their own unique styles.

'Jonathan's workshop in Oaxaca couldn't have been a better experience. It was my first time in the world of street photography and the first time I tried this style, and it couldn't have been with a better teacher.' - Ale Garcia

'This was my second workshop in Oaxaca with Jonathan. Having previously participated in this workshop, I knew that there would be plenty of opportunities for shooting in the streets, markets, and at events. Although it was the same workshop as last year, there was an additional town that we visited and I particularly enjoyed the Luchalibre that we attended, if not for great shots, for great entertainment.

I am looking forward to my next workshop with Jonathan.' - Pamela Fricke

'It was a privilege and a great pleasure to join Jonathan's workshop for Carnaval in Oaxaca (2025). I really enjoyed the small convivial group of photographers and the relaxed atmosphere.  The group size allowed for Jonathan to offer one-on-one instruction and ample time for detailed nightly reviews.  His feedback was candid but constructive: I never left a review feeling discouraged.  I especially appreciated Jonathan's good humour and his genuine interest in helping us each grow in our practice.  I would happily recommend one of his workshops.'  - Tracey Suba
