“I had such an amazing experience training with Greg. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable and professional, but he made the entire process fun and empowering. He films and edits everything super fast too, which is such a great bonus. You will leave with content that looks like it would cost way more to produce. 

I walked in a little unsure, and left feeling like a strong, capable woman who knows exactly what she’s doing. He explains things clearly, keeps the energy high, and makes sure you feel comfortable every step of the way.

If you’re looking for someone who can teach you real skills, show you an amazing time in Arizona, film and edit everything himself, Greg is the guy. I will go to him every time!!”

Greg makes the entire process smooth and enjoyable. He’s patient, attentive, and takes the time to understand what you’re looking for so he can capture it perfectly. Whether it’s photography or video, you can tell he takes pride in delivering high-quality results.

If you’re looking for someone who is talented, reliable, and genuinely great to work with, I highly recommend Greg. His knowledge, creativity, and professionalism make him stand out.

Hopefully, I’ll get the chance to work with him again soon. 10/10”

I had such a great experience working with Greg @spartan117gw. Going in, I knew almost nothing about firearms, but he was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and made me feel safe and comfortable the entire time. I learned way more than I expected, and it was obvious he takes both safety and teaching seriously. The equipment we trained with was also top-notch, which made the whole experience feel really professional. As an added bonus, I even got to meet his two sweet dogs. I’d absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to learn in a safe, welcoming environment.

“I had the incredible opportunity to work with Gregory Wong, and it was truly one of the most rewarding and memorable experiences I have ever had. From the very beginning, it was clear that Gregory operates at an exceptional level of professionalism and dedication. Every detail of the shoot was carefully planned and thoughtfully executed. The environment he created was organized, clean, structured, and highly professional, which immediately made me feel comfortable and confident in the process.

What stood out the most was Gregory’s ability to guide me through every aspect of the experience with patience and expertise. He didn’t just direct the shoot he educated me along the way. He took the time to walk me through camera angles, posture, outfit choices, hair placement, and how small details can make a significant difference on camera. Beyond the visual elements, he also provided thorough instruction on handling a weapon safely and convincingly for film. He carefully demonstrated how to hold it properly, how to aim, how to draw the weapon smoothly, and how to move naturally while maintaining realism on camera.

Gregory’s knowledge and attention to detail are truly impressive. Watching him work, you would genuinely believe he had an entire production team supporting him because of how seamlessly everything came together. The way he manages lighting, direction, camera work, and coaching simultaneously is remarkable. Despite the level of professionalism and seriousness he brings to his craft, he also creates an environment that is enjoyable and encouraging, making the entire experience both productive and fun.

Throughout the process, Gregory remained incredibly patient and supportive. Since many of these elements were new experiences for me, he took the time to ensure I understood each step while allowing me to learn naturally and build confidence. His teaching style made me feel comfortable asking questions and trying things for the first time without pressure. That balance between instruction and encouragement made a huge difference in the overall experience.

Not only did I walk away with amazing footage that I am genuinely proud of, but I also left with valuable knowledge about film production, camera presence, and on-set performance. The training and guidance I received went far beyond what I expected from a typical shoot. It felt like both a creative collaboration and a learning experience that pushed me to grow.

By the end of the experience, I left feeling confident, proud, and empowered. Gregory has a rare ability to bring out the best in the people he works with while maintaining an incredibly high standard for his craft. His professionalism, skill, and dedication to his work truly set him apart. I am extremely grateful for the opportunity to have worked with him, and I would highly recommend Gregory Wong to anyone looking for a photographer, producer, or trainer who is passionate, knowledgeable, and committed to delivering outstanding results.”

“Greg not only educated me on the weapons and equipment, but also helped me feel so comfortable and not intimidated having limited prior shooting experience. If 11/10 was a possibility, that’s the experience I walked away with. I learned so much, feeling confident knowing how to handle my weapons manipulation, body position, and effortlessly could identify when I knew I was nailing it once we got on the range. This experience provided me with incredible confidence to dive deeper into training and my deep appreciation for such beautiful custom builds being an artist who loves to draw. A once in a lifetime opportunity that I would suggest to anyone looking to both learn quality training and receive some of the most badass footage and photos with his creativity. Greg is an incredible human being with a heart of gold and genuinely loves putting positivity out in the world.”

“I had the pleasure of working with Gregory Wong and from start to finish, he was incredibly professional, thorough, and attentive to every detail. He made sure everything from lighting to positioning, was thoughtfully planned and executed.

What really stood out to me was how kind and fun he is to be around. He created such a comfortable, positive environment that the entire experience felt natural and enjoyable rather than intimidating. His energy is calm yet creative, and it shows in his work. He exceptionally talented. He has a sharp eye for detail and a clear artistic vision, and it comes through beautifully in the final images. The experience was genuinely incredible, and I’m so grateful to have worked with someone who is not only skilled at his craft but also such a wonderful person.

Not only did I get some insane photographs and videos, but I got some shooting training in as well. He knows what he’s talking about when it comes to how to shoot a weapon. I would absolutely work with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for high-quality, professional photography.”

To say it’s an honor to work with and train under Greg Wong would be an understatement.

When Greg first reached out, I was already impressed. His videography was exceptional, his content was clean and intentional, and everything about his page reflected professionalism. I even remember telling my partner, “It would be a dream to shoot or train with this guy one day.”

What stood out even more was how genuine he was. Instead of immediately trying to schedule a project, he took the time to get to know me as a person. That meant a lot. As a full-time model who’s worked with countless photographers and creators, I’ve learned that character matters just as much as talent, and Greg exceeded my expectations from the very beginning.

What I admire most is his mission. Greg genuinely wants to change the landscape for women in the firearms community. His goal isn’t to create another “gun bunny” photo—it’s to help women become capable, confident, proficient shooters who inspire other women to train.

That was evident from the moment we met. He wasn’t interested in putting me in revealing clothing and handing me a rifle for a photoshoot. He made sure I had appropriate gear, understood the mindset behind training, and approached everything with professionalism and purpose. I immediately knew he respected both me and the craft.

As an instructor, Greg is one of the best teachers I’ve ever had—in any field.

Before we fired a single round, we spent significant time working through dry-fire fundamentals. Every movement had a purpose, every correction had an explanation, and he made sure I understood why before moving on. By the time we transitioned to live fire, I was moving with more confidence and control than I ever had before. He eliminated so much of the learning curve simply because of how methodical and intentional his instruction was.

For me, this collaboration was the perfect combination of my two worlds: my passion for firearms training and personal defense, and my career creating visual content.

The results spoke for themselves. Our content was incredibly well received, leading to new relationships with brands, and one of our videos surpassed one million views in just 24 hours.

I can confidently recommend Greg as an instructor, photographer, mentor, and friend. He is someone who genuinely invests in the people he works with and wants to see them succeed.

I’ve already decided that I’m going to prioritize training with Greg at least once a month because I know how much I grow every time we work together. If this is where the journey starts, I can’t wait to see where it leads.

My experience receiving weapons handling training from Gregory was extremely positive and beneficial to my overall development and confidence with firearms. Throughout the training, Gregory demonstrated a high level of professionalism, patience, and attention to detail. The training was thorough and structured, ensuring I understood proper weapons handling procedures, and safety protocols. He took the time to explain in detail, answer my questions, and provide constructive feedback, which created an environment where I felt comfortable learning and improving.

As the training progressed, I gained valuable experience and became significantly more confident in my ability to properly and safely handle firearms. Each training session allowed me to build upon the skills I had previously learned while serving and improving areas that needed additional attention. Overall, Gregory’s professionalism, knowledge, and dedication had a significant impact on my development. I am grateful for the training and guidance I received, as it strengthened both my confidence and understanding of responsible weapons handling.

I’ve worked with a lot of people who are skilled at what they do, but Greg is one of the few whose passion is obvious from the moment you meet him. He genuinely enjoys teaching, and that makes a huge difference in how you learn.

One thing I appreciated most was how patient he was throughout the entire process. It’s easy to be hard on yourself when you’re new and expect everything to click right away, but Greg never let frustration become part of the experience. He broke everything down into manageable steps, celebrated the small improvements, and made sure I left feeling more confident than when I arrived.

His attention to detail is honestly remarkable. Nothing slips past him, and every piece of feedback has a purpose. Instead of overwhelming you with information, he knows exactly what to focus on so you continue building the right habits.

Whether he’s behind the camera or coaching on the range, it’s clear that Greg takes real pride in his work. He isn’t interested in doing the bare minimum. He wants every person he works with to have the best possible experience and leave with something valuable.

I would recommend Greg to anyone, regardless of their experience level. If you’re willing to learn, he’ll meet you where you are and help you become better than you thought you could be.

I came in excited but not knowing what to expect. I knew I’d get some cool photos, but I walked away with so much more! Greg created an environment where I felt completely comfortable despite being new to shooting. His instruction was clear, encouraging, and confidence-building, and he made the entire experience feel approachable and exciting. We drilled things until I felt comfortable and competent in the drill. He operates with patience and an unwavering attention to detail which is very important when dealing with something such as firearms. He brought an array of different guns to the range which allowed me to practice and become comfortable with multiple different guns. I felt like a real life Lara Croft. 

Then for the photos which turned out absolutely incredible. He has a talent for bringing out strength and confidence in people while creating images that look like they belong in a magazine or movie. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, and the final result was beyond anything I imagined. He is a true creative and is carving his own path with his visions and execution. 

If you’re considering training or a photoshoot with Greg, do it. You’ll leave with new skills, unforgettable memories, and some seriously badass photos.

I had the opportunity to train and create content with Greg, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations from start to finish. His level of professionalism, attention to detail, and overall vision are truly next-level.

He creates an environment that feels both comfortable and focused, which made it easy to fully immerse myself creatively. He doesn’t just have you show up and shoot content, he makes sure you understand proper technique, positioning, and handling, which translates directly into the quality of the footage. Because of that, the final content comes out that much more elevated, natural, and realistic.

Not only did I walk away with incredible photo and video content, but I also gained real knowledge and confidence in what I was doing. His video skills are truly unmatched. His creativity, precision, and eye for detail are on another level, and it shows in every final product.

You can tell he’s genuinely passionate about what he does, and it reflects in the entire experience. I’m so grateful to have worked with him and would absolutely do it again. If you’re looking for someone who delivers high-level content while also providing a hands-on, well-rounded experience—Greg is your guy.

“Working with Greg was nothing short of an amazing and professional experience. We had been talking for awhile about making this tactical shoot happen, and when we finally were able to get it all coordinated, it was such a blast (literally 🔫💥🧨)!! He really takes pride in guiding and coaching you to make sure you feel comfortable with a firearm, and gives you an entire "training day" before the real content starts happening. I felt confident, relaxed, and at ease working with Greg and can't wait for the next shoot! Plus, the quality of the content he creates is unmatched and unlike any other creator in this industry. It's beautiful, stands out, and when you see it, there's no doubt you'll be able to recognize it's Greg's work. Job well done 🤝🏽”

Greg takes the time to do his due diligence, ensuring every model is properly prepared for the safe handling of advanced weaponry while emphasizing correct form, focus, and discipline.

Working with Greg isn’t just an opportunity to model with weapons, it’s also a chance to learn responsible handling practices and develop tactical awareness. His expertise in lighting, angles, and creative photography and filmography consistently results in striking visuals.

Greg is also an excellent communicator who creates a positive and enjoyable working environment. I highly recommend working with him!”

“Greg was one of the best trainers I’ve ever worked with! I’ve been in the film industry for 5 years now, and working with Greg boosted my confidence, helped with my awareness and sharpened my skills quicker than I’ve ever experienced. He is highly meticulous, patient, and understanding. He knows how to explain what is expected and what to do in a clear, concise manner. I had the best experience over the course of a couple days and I feel my skill level upgraded in a huge way! 

He doesn’t just teach you gun safety, operations or tactical work, he gives you real life lessons. Along with filming amazing content and editing!! I’d highly recommend his training if you’re ready to put in the work and level up. He’s the guy to help challenge you :) “

“Growing up in a military family, tactical training and firearm safety were always something deeply ingrained in me. Now, being an ambassador for Women for Gun Rights and Women of NRA, there’s definitely a level of pressure that comes with representing women in the firearm community. Because of that, I never want to become stagnant when it comes to my training, discipline, or skill set. I’m always looking for ways to grow, sharpen my abilities, and continue learning. Getting the opportunity to train and shoot with Gregory was such an incredible experience. Not only is he an amazing teacher, but this was also my first time really getting to create cinematic, fun range content with a professional videographer behind the camera. I had a very specific narrative and vision in mind for what I wanted to create, and he executed it beyond anything I could’ve imagined. I genuinely cannot wait for the world to see what we created together. What makes Gregory stand out is not just his talent behind the camera or his knowledge on the range, but his patience and the way he teaches. He’s thoughtful, detail-oriented, and explains things in a way that truly sticks with you long-term. Whether you’re a beginner wanting to learn proper fundamentals or an advanced shooter looking to elevate your skills, Greg is absolutely the person you want alongside you.”
