At every workshop, I witness the light bulbs going on and hear the post-program success stories and it's very gratifying,” said Kevin Kubota, Idea Man of Kubota Image Tools. “There's no need for anyone to learn digital the hard way or to feel alone—all the information is available to photographers and the goal behind Bootcamp is to make it easier for photographers to embrace the digital workflow in their business and their lives.”
A few of the many things that are covered during Bootcamp include: - Style, creativity, and inspiration

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.

Interested photographers can find additional information about Bootcamp at www.kubotaimagetools.com/workshops.html
Here’s what some past bootcampers have to say about their experience:
“As a new photographer, two and a half years in my own studio, this is one of the best investments I have made in myself, my studio, and my future employees to come!” -- Phyllis Hornbrook, West Des Moines, Iowa
“Many, many thanks…I learned such an incredible amount, even starting as a newcomer (1 month) to digital. I am so excited to make the transition from film (and my traditional wet darkroom) when I see how super cool and creative Photoshop is.” – Anonymous
“Going to Bootcamp was absolutely transformative! Kevin is an exceptional instructor—knowledgeable, patient, and engaging. Everything I learned here is directly applicable to my wedding work, and I know will improve my business.” – Ilana Hamilton, Portland, Oregon
“It saved me ten years of work! Kevin is an awesome teacher and I would highly recommend this course to any digital photographer.” -- Laurie Richards, Nantucket, Massachusetts
“This experience will help bring my business to the next level! Thanks for sharing your knowledge, experience, and friendship with us.” – Krish Kiefer, Waconia, Minnesota
About Kubota Image Tools
Kubota Image Tools grew from the digital experience of Kevin Kubota who began pioneering the field of completely digital wedding photography in the 1990s. As one of the first photographers to master digital imaging, Kevin became inspired to share his experience and natural teaching ability with other photographers by founding the original Digital Photography Bootcamp, a five-day intensive workshop which consistently sells out. He has successfully trained thousands of photographers to make the digital transition and continuously empowers existing digital photographers with new, effective workflow ideas and outstanding Photoshop® techniques.
Kevin Kubota was named one of the “Top 10 Wedding Photographers in the World” by American Photo Magazine. His wedding, portrait and commercial photography Web site is www.KubotaPhotoDesign.com.
In addition to Digital Photography Bootcamp, Kevin Kubota teaches one-day and two-day programs for digital photographers on a variety of topics that he presents in different regions of the country. He also teaches fine-art digital photography workshops every year in exotic locations such as Italy. Kevin is also a highly sought after speaker at international, national and regional conventions including Imaging USA, Photo Imaging & Design Expo, and WPPI; and photography schools including MARS, NEIPP, and Imaging Workshops of Colorado.
Kevin is also the author of the book Digital Photography Boot Camp: A Step-by-Step Guide for Professionals, now in its second edition, published by Amherst Media. Through his Web site, www.KubotaImageTools.com, Kevin sells training products and Action Paks for Photoshop®, and, through his ever evolving Forum, provides tips and tricks on all things digital.
