Tony Lei Fotographique nurtures aspiring shutterbugs with a lineup of photography and digital-photo-editing classes. Within an airy, 2,000-square-foot facility, beginner-level students can absorb the basics of photography, like how to adjust camera settings and how to properly tilt one's beret. A four-hour beginner photography workshop also covers the ABCs of proper lighting and allows students to put their new techniques into practice by shooting a live model. While the intermediate workshop whips novices through a crash course in professional lighting techniques, the advanced workshop focuses on photographic creativity, helping superior photographers get the most out of their craft with master-level tips on light modifiers and the best angle for bunny ears.

Digital-photo-editing workshops dish on the industry secrets of how images get tweaked after they've been taken. Photo-editing students can learn digital retoucher and compositing techniques to erase red pupils, adjust colours and contrast, and Photoshop the prime minister into their bachelor-party snapshots. And since a former imaging specialist with advertising and creative experience teaches the workshops, the instruction is always up-to-date. Workshops are limited to 10 students to maximize individual attention and minimize the chance of flash mobs.
