Then this is a course for you!

Dave is humble! For specifics, he only wants me to say: "Dave has been making prints for almost 40 years starting in his Dad's basement. Coming from a photography family - his father was a career photographer and his father's father was an avid amateur" - Dave says his printing work comes from "a place in me that gives me great joy in what I am doing, how it is being done and who I am doing it with."
His printing skills and knowledge are unmatched in the Ottawa area.
