“I’ve learnt a lot, particularly from the fashion and beauty lighting classes. I photograph brides and grooms rather than models, but the techniques I picked up are great for weddings, engagement shoots and even families.”
"Great to have all this valuable information in a single place. Well organised and easy to access. I’ve been looking for something like this for centuries.”
Nicolae Marian
"You can’t imagine how the last 365 days have changed my photography in a positive way! I tried several other online programmes but yours is the best for explanation and techniques!"
