No two Bootcamps are the same, that’s why many “bootcampers” attend over and over again! Space is limited to 21 participants to offer personalized, hands-on training. Bootcamp is the only workshop of its kind that has a money-back guarantee because Kubota Image Tools is confident that the experience will significantly improve the workflow of the beginning/intermediate digital photographer. Interested photographers can find additional information about Bootcamp at www.kubotaimagetools.com/workshops.html
