What our students say about our teachers

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)

I really feel that the classes I’ve taken with StrudelmediaLive have given me the confidence to keep putting my work out there!

—Cecily (Portland, Oregon)

It was probably one of the best classes I’ve taken and I was — and still am — pumped because Anita imparted such a wealth of knowledge on us, I seriously wish it never ended.

—Aniya (Barbados)

Bryan is a generous and attentive teacher, and he went to great effort to prepare multiple handouts full of resources. And he also had a nice way of framing the daunting task of getting organized.

—Denise (New York City)

Live online photography classes makes learning fun and easy. The best part is that you get to meet and talk with participating photographers from all over the world.
