Biography

Dave Eichinger is a photography professor at San Diego City College, teaching everything from B&W intro to advanced studio portraiture. His specialties (and the courses his students seem to enjoy the most) involve working with infrared film, toy cameras, pinhole cameras, and creating images he refers to as "pseudo-platinum" (soft, warm silver prints that have a look and 'feel' of platinum). Outside the classroom, he is passionate about melding photography with travel. He teaches an annual summer travel course to Europe (this year, northern Italy) followed-up with six weeks of portfolio production at San Diego City College.
