I have nothing but high praise for Hector. His class is very comprehensive. I took photography back in college (more years ago than I care to admit) and for all practical purposes, I was a beginner when I took his class. In fact, there were several other students who had not used a professional camera before. Hector covered so much ground, going over all the basics, and all the different settings and modes of the camera in a way that he made it understandable, straightforward and practica. I truly felt that I got max value for my money. Thank you Hector!

I had the privilege of taking Hector’s No More Auto class yesterday in San Diego and it far exceeded my expectations. Hector is an outstanding teacher who was able to break down a lot of information to digestible segments with exercises to help each student truly understand the concepts. He is such a dedicated professional that he stayed with us for a full hour past our class time to ensure that he covered all important topics. While it is a very long day and you have homework before you even arrive, the value that I received from the class far exceeded the price I paid. If I could give Hector 6 or 7 stars, I would happily do so. Thank you Hector!

Hector’s Get out of Auto Mode workshop is a fantastic way to dive into the world of photography. This is class is very well organized into sections so you learn as you go in a way that makes sense and doesn’t feel like information overload. You’ll cover the basics of pretty much every type of shooting from portraits with blurred backgrounds to high-speed action shots. Prior to this workshop, I was someone who didn’t use his camera much (because I could do better with my iPhone). I now understand how much more powerful a good camera (than a mobile phone) can be when in the hands of someone who understands it. 10/10 would recommend.

I highly recommend taking this class either in San Diego or Las Vegas. Hector is a wonderful instructor. He takes the time with each student and is very knowledgeable about all the different types of cameras out there.If you want to move away from auto and have more control over what your camera can offer, this is the class for you.Can't wait to take more classes from Hector.

I really enjoyed the "No more Auto" workshop and wish I would've taken it a decade ago.Hector does a great job explaining things and answering questions and even provides a binder full of helpful information you can reference at home.After just one day, I feel more confident with my camera and have been able to take shots that I actually want instead of what auto mode gives me. I'm excited to continue building my photography skills with this new foundation.Highly recommend!

What a great class! Hector is a experienced photographer, a truly amazing instructor!I have always been interested in photography and now with two little young ones I just want to capture all those special moments. I have spent countless hours on you tube but I felt I just wasn’t learning. I was stuck on auto mode…I stumbled upon Hector’s classes and saw the best reviews. Let me tell you that if you are looking to get out of auto mode on your camera in one day, DO IT! Take his class and I promise you won’t be disappointed. I really enjoyed the one on one instruction, it’s what I needed to really learn how to understand my camera.I’m looking forward to use all this new knowledge and taking some incredible photos!

I took this class yesterday and WOW!!! Hector was amazing! He took the time to explain to the features and the benefits. We all had different cameras and lenses, he knew the features on them and where to find them on each of our cameras. Explained the differences. He showed us some poses to use to create a story. He really is passionate about teaching. I would take more of his workshops for sure!! If you want to learn in a positive environment you have to take this workshop!

Honestly, I can't say enough good things about this workshop!! Hector is an absolutely AWESOME instructor. He worked SO hard all day, non stop, with such attention to detail, making sure each one of us got the knowledge we needed to "get out of Auto mode"...Mission Accomplished!! My 10 year old granddaughter and I both took the course, and she LOVED it! She was clicking away all day, and Hector made sure she got a great start to being an amazing photographer. He used many simple exercises to help us understand how everything works. Hector is very thoughtful, creative, patient and extremely knowledgeable...we could ask him any question, and he knew the answer. He taught us things you won't learn in any other workshop, i.e. "painting" with light?...take the course and you won't be disappointed!

Absolutely AMAZING, everything about this workshop was awesome, Mr Hector is a great photographer he was patient with us and had tons of information to share with us , I love the hands on experience I don’t think photography can be taught ( or should be taught any other way) not only was the class filled with valuable information it was fun . I would do it 100 times a year if I could .

Hector is a passionate teacher. He really worked to make sure we understood and gave us time to practice throughout the day-long class. It was a lot for me to learn all at once, but I feel much more comfortable and knowledgeable with my camera, and now I need to put in the time to practice what I learned. I'm really grateful for the binder of notes to refer to.

Hector is an incredibly thoughtful, creative and patient teacher. He truly cares about every single student in his class. We were a group of 6 with different types and brands of cameras. He took the time with each one of us to make sure we were comfortable and familiar with our cameras. I received my camera 4 years ago and was so intimidated by it, it just sat there. I bought books and watched so many YouTube videos and I just couldn't figure it out. Thanks to Hector I'm so excited to use my camera I've been taking it everywhere. I recommend this class 100%!!

This was the first time I took a photography class. I bought a Canon T6 Rebel and had zero clue how to use it. Hector did a great job in teaching this workshop and yes, the hours are from 7am-5pm and it may seem long, but time flows because it is a very thorough class. I felt so much accomplished after this class that I finally understood my camera and all the information I learned from Hector was awesome. Great class and teacher! Well worth it.

For anyone looking to learn about photography, look no further! Let me introduce you to Hector. He is a master photographer, who has a passion for the art of photography and teaching it. After one day with him, you’ll feel like a pro. He makes you a personalized binder, has all the right props to make concepts come alive, and is a sweetheart with the patience of a saint.Where I learned the absolute most was watching him compose shots after the course. He has such an artistic eye - it’s like watching Yo-Yo Ma play cello or Martha Argerich on piano. A master at work - with the heart of a teacher.You will absolutely love Hector !!

If you have a DSLR camera and are not using it to it’s full potential, still using Auto Mode... then Hector’s class is for you!! Hector was an exceptional teacher, he took the time to explain things step by step, watched for facial cues and if you appeared confused, he took the time to address it. He really seems like he loves and enjoys photography and teaching people, wanting to see them get better. The day goes by so quick too, cause your learning so much and having a lot of fun too! I highly recommend Hectors get out of Auto Mode photography class!!

I had SO much fun taking the Get Out of Auto workshop with Hector. Went into the class not knowing anything about cameras, it was basically the first time I used the camera I had all day, and left feeling so much more confident with what I was doing. Looking forward to using the information I learned that day, and I think I found myself a new hobby.Also, the homework before the class was intimidating, but just give it a shot, it made the class much more enjoyable. I didn't spend much time on it unfortunately, and I still didn't know what the homework was taking about when I started the class, but I picked it all up after the first hour.

Couldn’t be happier with this workshop and highly recommended. I got a mirror-less camera about two months beforehand and had some time to read about Exposure and familiarise myself with the different settings. However, this workshop really took it to the next level in terms of understanding the different modes (Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority and Manual) and when/how to best use them. Hector is also super fun and patient to explain everything in detail and answer any possible questions. I first thought the workshop was a little long for a beginner class, but honestly, time went by super quickly since it was so much fun to learn and practice the new stuff right away.

I have had my camera for a couple of years with the intention of using it for travel and food photography. I purchased books, viewed online tutorials and even attended another class, they helped somewhat but never held my interest long enough for me to grasp what my camera could really do, instead I felt overwhelmed. I found Hector's class on Facebook and tried to sign up a couple of times but there communications issues with emails etc... I finally was able to sign up for the class on Saturday and I definitely feel more in control of my camera and all that it's capable of. The class was organized and well planned and Hector was patient and methodical, by the end of the class we were all able to confidently manage the settings on our cameras and shoot pictures. I plan on seeking out photography groups to continue to hone my skills and I definitely recommend that anyone looking to conquer their fear of their camera settings sign up for this class. My only caveat is if you don't get a response to your initial inquiry try contacting him through Facebook or another way as I did not even find his emails in my spam, alas it remains a mystery : ) but I am now enjoying my newly honed skills! I look forward to my next vacation to really put them to the test! Thank you Hector!

I was booked on the Get out of Auto Workshop as a Christmas present and was extremely excited at the prospect of learning more about using my Canon DSLR.I have used SLR and DSLR cameras for quite a while now, with my first SLR a couple of decades ago (film), and despite years and years of ownership, I was a complete novice. I lived in the Auto mode on my camera, and regardless of how many youtube videos I watched, the concepts never stayed fresh. This class made everything I had read or seen actually make sense.The course itself provided the right amount of theory mixed in with the right amount of practice to make learning the concepts of properly setting up your exposure. Where I had always struggled before was in how to leverage the aperture, ISO settings, and shutter speed correctly - and all of those concepts were addressed and taught in a way that really made sense to me. I can't wait to apply what I have learned in this class out in the wild on my next photo adventure.I was so impressed and enjoyed the class so much that I am hoping to attend again with my wife so that she can get comfortable behind the camera. I would happily recommend this to anyone looking to learn more about the proper way to take beautiful photographs, and Hector was a great teacher to learn from.

I have been thinking of getting into photography for years, and finally took the plunge and bought a DSLR camera. I was trying to do reading and research on how to use it, and was getting more and more confused. I wanted a class where I could have the functions clearly explained to me, and Hector delivered! A very informative and interactive class, the perfect mixture of lecture and practice (I say this as a high school teacher). Hector is very knowledgable and helpful, and helps to put the use of the camera in easy to understand lessons.

Ok, don't walk, run to Hector's class. If you are interested in learning how to really work your camera, I promise you, you will leave his class with what you need in order to do so. With the amount of time, effort and energy Hector puts into this class, I feel like I should have paid more. It's a long day, but it goes by so fast, and he gives you all the tools you need to make a jumpstart into photography (whether you're interested in it as a hobby or a career). I did a lot of research before I selected this class... reviews were one of the main reasons why I picked Hector, and now I know why his reviews are all so amazing. I am happy I now get to add to them!!

Although it was a long day yesterday, I had fun learning the the features about what my camera can do and how to take picture. There was so many inputs to remember but now I have a better understanding of how things work. Hector was very professional. His way of teaching made it FUN and INTERESTING. He's very passionate about photography. I think after yesterday’s class I’m better photographer now than I was before. It's a money well spent for such a small investment...taking the class was worth it. Thank you Hector.

I can honestly say that my experience in taking Hector's "Get out of Auto Class" exceeded my expectations, even after reading the reviews prior to taking this class.What I learned about using my camera, the teacher/student interactions, along with the interactions of the other students was well worth the cost and the time.If you are like I was looking for the right camera class that will teach you how to use your camera, then look no further Hector's class is the right one and you will not be sorry.

Wow, Hector's "Get out of Auto Class" was fantastic. I see few people work as hard as Hector does. He is really passionate about teaching photography and he is so patient and kind with his students. Hector is an organized teacher with a lesson plan which he thoroughly explains and gives each student time and assistance in understanding the information and finding the settings on their own cameras. For the money, this is a great value. We spent an entire day at the park doing "classroom" time and practicing what we learned. I will be taking more classes with Hector to continue learning about photography. After this class I do feel much more confident in taking good pictures and I understand how to operate in Manual mode--which was completely foreign to me before the class. Thank you, Hector, for all you do for your students and for making photography affordable and accessible.

Let me begin by saying that I was signed up for this class against my will. I've had a Canon for a while but was not taking photos (because I didn't know how to use my camera lol) My husband sent me an email with the class info and told me he signed me up because the reviews were really good.I was in Hector's "Get Out Of Auto" class. It was very educational, fun, easy and empowering. He taught us how not only use our cameras but also gave us tips and on how, where and where. He 'made sure that every single person was on the same page and understood how to use their camera, settings etc..(even though there were all different types of cameras). The class is fairly long 7am-5:30pm. But you'll learn so much. He's very professional yet very personal. Very warm personality, friendly and funny. You will not regret taking this class especially if you are a beginner. I had a fantastic time, learned a lot and at the end of the class we all became friends. I would love to take another class by Hector. Can't wait to see what he's got in sore next!***DON'T FORGET TO PRACTICE WHAT YOU'VE LEARNED!!!!

After reading all the positive reviews about Hector's classes, I decided to sign up and boy, am I so glad I did! It was a long day out in the sun (bring your sunscreen!) but it allowed us plenty of time to understand manual settings and grasp how our cameras and lenses really work, learn a great deal of techniques and tips (there were many "ah-ha!" moments) and practice our newfound knowledge with hands-on shooting.I was a little nervous and intimidated at first, but there was no reason to be. Not only were all of us students beginners, Hector is also a super friendly, very knowledgeable instructor who repeated information for us and took the time to answer all of our questions. You can tell he has a genuine, deep passion for photography, and that is definitely what I want in an instructor.The day was exhausting- but that's a good thing. Hector was very thorough and kept us learning and shooting through different exposure and image quality settings all day. (Don't worry, there are plenty of bathroom breaks and a lunch break.)Whether you want to do this as a hobby or take the workshop as a first step in a photography career, you will be happy with the results. I went in there knowing next to nothing about my camera and came out feeling much more confident! After a little more practice on my own, I will definitely be ready to take more advanced classes in the future.

My 14 year old daughter and I took the get out of auto class together. Hector is a great teacher. He gave us some work before class so we could maximize our learning during the actual class. This was very helpful. Throughout the day, he patiently explained techniques as many times as we needed to understand and he gave us multiple opportunities to practice. We can't wait to practice what we learned. We feel so much more comfortable in using our camera!

Went into the class as a novice, and left the class with a general understanding and skill set to take different types of photos in manual mode, aperture and shutter priority. Snacks and study manuals were provided, and learned everything from basic fundamentals- to physics- to taking photos in extreme conditions (weather, darkness etc.) The Long Beach "No More Auto Mode" workshop was a great investment! Hector really takes our education seriously-- imagine my surprise when we had a test at the end-- but l left with a deep appreciation for his passion and patience as we learn everything about our cameras and how to use them. I would recommend this class in the future to anyone who just got into photography or needs a good refresher on taking excellent shots in manual mode/A or P mode. Thanks again Hector

Hector is an AMAZING instructor. He is very patient, informative and very fun! I would HIGHLY recommend this course for anyone that would like to know the proper way to use their camera. Even though the weather conditions were not how we all would have liked but we all battled the high winds togetherHere's a few suggestions for future students:1. When you receive the homework assignment, MAKE SURE YOU DO IT A FEW TIMES BEFORE CLASS! This will make things much easier for you.2. Regardless of weather forecast, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A WARM JACKET in your car...just in case!3. Don't be afraid to ask questions because Hector has all of the answers.4. Be ready to take LOTS of photos and have a great time!After the course, I went out and took pictures (because practice, practice, practice is the key) and I have a few photographer friends that were highly impressed with my photos. You will not be disappointed by taking this course with HECTOR THE GREAT!!! I can't wait to take the other courses with Hector!

Took this course in Long Beach this past weekend (3/11/17) and it was fantastic! I was hoping to learn a few things. However, I went home with SO much more knowledge and I can confidently go out and shoot in manual and get the photos that I want. It's amazing! What a gift. Do yourself a favor and book a course with Hector, you won't regret it!

Michael Breitner

Hector is amazing. I took his workshop about 4 years ago and my photography improved by leaps and bounds. And I just took it again to review what I had learned and what fill in the blanks for things I'd either never mastered or forgotten. Hector did not disappoint! He knows his craft - and that's just the beginning. In our class of 7 people, we learned about every button and dial on our camera quickly and simply. Digital Cameras Demystified!Even though people can take great pictures on their phones and on Auto Mode on their SLRs, it's extremely liberating to learn what's possible once you have the skills. With practice, it's now about creativity and self-expression.I highly recommend this workshop to anyone who has a DSLR or is considering getting one. It's a shame to have a camera that can do amazing things and not be able to take advantage of it. The workshop is worth every penny. Go for it!!

If I could give this class 6 stars, I would! This was one of the best photography investments I've made since I purchased my camera. I loved every minute and learned more than I could have hoped to! From the moment I signed up for the class, Hector communicated with me about my camera, the pre-course work, etc. Then, on the day of the class, I got so much more from the class than I could have expected. There were so many basic skills taught in a manner which made them understandable and enjoyable ...the class was actually FUN! I walked away feeling like I could be confident taking photos in many situations (and not just in the ONE mode I knew how to use). I learned all the buttons on the camera and I'm beyond excited to start playing around with my new knowledge. I'm grateful for the expert learnings, the easy way Hector presented it and that it was so enjoyable and understandable.

I had a blast taking Hector's class! He really opened my eyes to what my camera can do for me. He covers everything you have been wanting to learn about your camera including what equipment to buy and what all those modes actually mean! Hector also teaches all the information in a way that is relatable and easy to grasp - he even gives you a how-to binder of everything he taught that day. Thanks to the small class sizes, he is able to really help everyone individually and answer all questions along he way. I also really enjoyed meeting all the great people in class as well. I would highly recommend anyone new to the DSLR world to take his classes, you'll thank yourself later :)

I took DSLR workshop in San Pedro June 11, 2016 with Hector Gonzales. I got my DSLR camera few months ago, but I was shooting with Auto Mode only, because understanding the buttons was overwhelming. After spending a day with Hector, I feel very different about photography and understanding, how the camera works. Hector is an amazing photographer and an amazing instructor. I highly recommend this workshop for anyone, who wants to learn about photography and take it to the next level. Thank you Hector for your time, knowledge and sharing your passion for photography with us.

I took Hector's get out of auto workshop because I bought a new dslr camera and knew nothing about it. I was hoping to gain basic knowledge of how the camera works (besides auto mode) in a fun friendly environment. I picked Hector's class based on the reviews I read and I was not disappointed. Hector was patient, knowledgeable, funny but most importantly, passionate about photography. He made the class fun and interesting but informative at the same time. I would HIGHLY recommend this class if you are looking to learn how to use a DSLR camera and get out of auto mode.

I recently (Temecula May 1, 2016) took Hector's class, get out of Auto Mode, and was not only thrilled but completely amazed with what I learned. Hector has a gift of teaching to all different levels and learning styles. He doesn't simply show you the buttons on your DSLR but allows you to take pride in discovering, while thinking for yourself, how they work and why. His interactive techniques were extremely well planned, organized, and at times had a fun comical edge, only adding to a beautiful relaxing day. Needless to say, I would highly recommend Hector's class and can proudly say, from now on it is Manual Mode!

Ute Grubb

00:05 12 Jan 16

This class is truly fantastic!For years I have been saying I should take a class to learn how to use my Canon Rebel DSLR camera other than in auto mode. My husband signed my up for Hector's "Get out of auto mode" and it couldn't have been better.You will receive some homework before the class that forces you to look at all your camera buttons and play around with them. The class itself is 10+ hours long (so prepare yourself for a long day) and you will get a binder with everything you learned that day.Hector goes over all the basic photography terms, best practices, equipment and your goals of taking the class.After reviewing all the physical buttons on your camera he explains each function in detail and makes you practice. The class is very hands on so you can see the effect of different settings on your own camera and learn from it.You will go through all options of your camera until you "graduate" to shooting in manual.Hector is amazing and it shows that he loves photography and teaching alike. He has the day perfectly planned out and created a great manual that you get to take home. He also answers any questions that you have and makes sure he has the right props so you can practice!Don't waste your time or money on other classes, as tempting as the Groupon photography classes might sound. You will just end up taking Hector's class anyway :)

If you are looking for an amazingly comprehensive photography class that will teach you to use your camera to take amazing pictures, look no further! I decided to take Hector's class based on all of the 5 start reviews he has and the class TOTALLY lived up to all those stars! Hector is a great teacher and I was so impressed with his ability to take something that he knows backwards and forwards, and break it down into steps, hands on activities and explanations that help even the most novice of photographers learn. Hector is very laid back and makes the day so much fun and educational. By the end of the day I felt like I knew my camera and had the skills to be able to take a great picture! I am so excited to practice my new skills and continue improving my photographs, armed with all of the amazing tools, tricks, tips and skills that Hector was able to teach me. I was a little nervous when I recieved my "pre-homework" for this class and was not sure if I would do well in the class. The homework is very minimal BUT helped me to better understand the concepts that were taught during the day. Hector takes the time to show you how everything works on your camera and HOW those buttons will help you take great pictures. I don't have a bad thing to say about this class, it was flat out AWESOME!! Thank you Hector!!!

WOW! Where to even begin? I just took Hector's class this Saturday and was blown away! I did not know what to expect out of a full day photography class, and walked away SO excited and much more knowledgable about my camera! Hector is so passionate about photography, which transfers to his students! He could answer every question about every camera, regardless of the brand. During the wonderful day together, we learned ALL about the best ways to use our cameras, the three most important rules (take the class to learn!), lighting, and other great tips and tricks! Hector is so kind and a great teacher for anyone at any level! I am so grateful to have been able to learn from Hector and look forward to being able to take a class from him soon!

Hector, Magnifico!! If you want to learn how to use a camera Hector is the man. A teacher and a gentelman who takes the time individually on every lesson we are working on. I did not expect how he takes so much time for every person and never misses a name and never misses a beat. He demands you learn or he won't leave you alone, and he knows when you do not know...I want to take his session on night photography sometime in the future. I wouldn't consider anyone but Hector. I highly recommend him if you want to learn about your camera. He's a great resource. JW

I had been wanting to learn how to use my Cannon Rebel T3 in Manual Mode and wanted a hands on class VS. an online class ..I found Hectors class by searching the internet for a photography class in my area "Temecula". Took the pt. 1 Class "Getting out of Auto Mode" .. and it was awesome. Hector took all the fear out of switching from Auto to Manual. He Has a Simple way of explaining how to use aperature, shutter speed and ISO and teaching you how each manual mode works. He brings a binder with all the information he teaches in class and sends each student home with their own binder. There were 8 people in class (his max.).. and we all got his hands on attention and help throughout the class .. and we all pitched in to help one another. It was a full day of information and hands on teaching. Hector was very friendly and welcoming and very easy to understand and work with. I asked him on lunch break how long it would take before I would be totally out of Auto Mode and he said the end of this class .. and sure enough .. I'm out of Auto Mode ! .. I'm looking forward to practicing and getting better with time and can't wait to take another of Hectors classes in the near future. Thanks so Much Hector for making the day such a pleasure to learn.. no less in a beautiful location too ! Everyone that took this class had a great time ...

Took Hector's "Getting Out Of Auto Mode" class, and It was exhilarating to learn about the composition of a complicated piece of equipment and everything was made easier with his guidance into Shutter Speed, Apertures, ISO, WB etc.,. Hector was caring, patient and knowledgeable. I hope to practice enough and take his other classes. If better photography is your goal, here is your man. I highly recommend his classes.

I had a great time learning about the functionality of my camera. Hector was very thorough and I left wanting to invest more time into photography. You reach a very strong comfort level using your dslr in its manual, aperture priority, and shutter priority settings. Highly recommended!
