  1. <p>Robert, certainly as a professional, and as an intelligent person, you should know that one man's opinion of an experience or a photographer is simply that, one man's opinion. I am not saying Mr. Israel isn't entitled to share his experience, just that before anyone draws sweeping conclusions from it. For example:<br>

    "There are hundreds of so-called "instructors" out there collecting from two to five hundred bucks a pop for seminars, who once they are in front of a "class", turn out not to know how to "instruct" at all, and are there to do nothing more than boost their own egos and bank accounts. So, this is not as "rare" as it should be."<br>

    I can assure you that regardless of Mr. Israel's conclusions, Clay Blackmore doesn't fit that description at all. In fact, if you do a little research, you'll find that every single other review on the web for Clay's masterclass is positive. For example:<br>

    And finally, read a response to Mr. Israel's identical post on DPREVIEW from CP3Photographer (at the bottom)<br>

    <a href="http://www.dpreview.com/articles/3125173985/review-of-how-to-photograph-everyone-master-class-by-clay-blackmore">http://www.dpreview.com/articles/3125173985/review-of-how-to-photograph-everyone-master-class-by-clay-blackmore</a><br>

    For full disclosure, I own Monte Zucker Photographic Education, thus I produced this tour, and Clay is one of my best friends in the world.<br>

    Mr. Israel, I am terribly sorry you had a bad experience. I can assure you this is not representative of who Clay is. That being said, you obviously did not feel this was a good fit for you. I invite you to contact me personally if you would like to discuss it. I am in business to give people good experiences, not bad ones, and so it pains me personally to have a customer dissatisfied.<br>
