What our students say about our teachers
Thank you, Anja, for the tip to take the course “Experimenting in the Visual Laboratory” with Anita! A really, really great course in which I tried out a lot of things that I would never have thought of myself. I learned a lot about my camera and photography in general and took home a ton of inspiration and ideas. It’s a shame that tomorrow is the last class.
—Christina (Munich)
The lighting class was excellent. Gianni is both a great photographer and a great teacher. He made what can be a complicated subject understandable. Gianni helped me see where I was making mistakes and helped me understand how to fix them. Thank you so much Anja, and Gianni for this class. I am no longer scared of speedlights, and I feel like I just got a bunch of cool new tools that I can’t wait to try out.
—Deborah (Boston)
Thank you so much! Learned so much so quickly!
—Tina (New Orleans)
Kai’s classes were terrific. The group was a good mix of levels of experience. I learned a lot, and realized how much I have yet to learn. I was inspired!
—Bob (New York City)
I was fortunate enough to take this documentary photography class with Marco Antonio Bello, and have come away with new insights and a much better understanding of what documentary photography is all about. Thank you Marco for your tenacity and inspiration!
—Barbara (New Jersey)
