CHARLES GUERRERO

Charles Guerrero has always wanted to be a photographic mentor. Having been in the business of photography for thirty years, he has had the opportunity to teach many people.

Mentoring began for Mr. Guerrero, when the University of Texas asked him to teach photography, this lasted for the next six years. Students anticipated his energy and in return, he says he received back what he put in.

During his thirty years of photography experience, Charles established the structure of photography. Since then he has embraced it to express a style all his own. After receiving a degree from Brooks Institute, the pace was set when he was elected as President of Austin Professional Photographer Guild. He has actively participated in The Texas Professional Photographers, the South West Professional Photographers, and served on the council of the Professional Photographers of America for the last eight years.

Charles helped plan several national educational policies. He went on to receive the National Award, which is given for meritorious contribution in professional photography. Mr. Guerrero looks forward to meeting new students. However, he requires two things if you are planning on taking his class. First, have fun, and second, don't take yourself too seriously.
