"Years ago I bought a DSLR. I got by taking what I would call "Lucky Shots" but never knew exactly what I was doing. I've always loved photography and finally decided that this year would be the year I take a photography course. I looked online and came across a few online courses but there was something about The Photography Institute that I really liked.
The course outline was great and the modules were very informative and fun to read. My tutor David was such a great help and always got back to me promptly with great direction and tips if I was lost or just needed that little bit extra advice. I can't thank him enough.
When I started the course I never thought that I would have ever actually started my own business, but I have and I am doing really well in it. The Photography Institute gave me all the tools and direction that I needed to understand the functionality of my camera and take a great photo. They not only taught me about Photography they also pointed me in the right direction to get my small business up and running.

Thank you..."

"All I can say is wow!!!
I have been doing a lot of research trying to determine which course to take for my photography passion. There were many choices and a lot of attractive sites. The Photography Institute ended up being my choice because of the superior structure of the course and its flexibility.
The Photography Institute had a huge bearing on my progress and I liked the fact that I could move at my own pace even with a full time job and also work out a payment structure which suited me best. At the beginning of the course I thought I knew a lot about photography but the Institute took me to another level! The advanced manipulation of light is what I call it...
The communication was very prompt and all of my questions were answered quickly and thoroughly throughout the entire course.
Thanks to the Photography Institute, I now have my own photography business called Julian Dean Photography and have been very successful with it.
I have told many people about the course and will continue to do so.
Thanks again to George Seper and the team at The Photography Institute..."

"This has honestly been the best photography course I have taken to date. I have taken both online and in class courses in the past and nothing compares to this one. George's instructional text, is written in the perfect sequence to help all levels understand and learn photography concepts. The course is very well structured, taking you from start to finish with very well thought out instruction and assignments to really get students using and more importantly applying the information they learned in the module.
The assistance provided from having my own personal tutor for the duration of the course was absolutely invaluable. My tutor was always prompt in responding to my questions, and continuously provided constructive criticism and encouragement.
This course gave me the knowledge I needed to turn a hobby into a career. I have and will continue to recommend this course to friends and colleagues..."

"The Photography Institute is the perfect online course.
I was able to take the course at my own pace and on my own free time, and with two kids (one newborn and one toddler) it is tough to find the time for a face to face course.
This course was very informative and my tutor was very helpful and wasted no time getting back to me on my questions. My tutor went above and beyond expectations to ensure I received the correct information, on the topics or questions I had, he made sure I felt comfortable with my knowledge as I was progressing throughout the course.
This course has helped me in so many ways, from getting to know my camera and how to use it, to different lighting situations, where to find work, and making my portfolio, just to name a few. I was able to get some jobs as I was progressing, and I just finished registering my business name. I have multiple clients and this is just the beginning.
The course goes into depth and has great links to further your knowledge and is extremely fun in the process. I had a great time and I cannot thank my tutor, the team and George Seper enough.
I look forward to learning more, about the different areas of photography, and I can’t wait for more courses from George Seper. I will definitely be going through The Photography Institute again! Thanks, The Photography Institute!.."

"This course definitely took learning photography to a new level for me. Now, I can proudly say that I am able to create images rather than just snapshots.
It taught me everything from the very basics like knowing your gears and understanding that light is the most important aspect of photography all the way to the business side of photography.
The author George Seper, has an excellent approach for a novice photographer and was able to guide me to understand why an image can be labelled as great and another not so great. Not to mention my tutor, David Goldman who was always very helpful especially with his timely answers to all of my questions. I enjoyed David's approach as he gave me his honest opinion on what he saw and he never attempted to "sugarcoat" his feedback, which was very beneficial to my learning style.
The support team was always there when I needed anything and they always responded very promptly to any of my needs.
A sample of some of the images that I have created are published with 'Canada Stock Photo':

"Coming into this course, I didn't quite know what to expect. There are hundreds of online photography courses out there, but the feel of The Photography Institute's website and the photographs used felt like a higher quality than the others.
When sending in some initial questions before signing up, the promptness of the student support staff in responding to my questions was phenomenal.
Once in the course, I didn't need their help very much as things are extremely well-designed, but I knew I would be able to rely on them if I needed it.
The course itself was very interesting and easy reading - George Seper, the author of the course managed to get through some pretty technical stuff without making me feel bogged down. He's quite funny and the practical knowledge he shares in this course is amazing. He goes through a very broad range of topics and provides resources if you want to go more in depth on a certain topic.
Through the modules and assignments, I have been able to figure out where I want to go in the world of photography and have been given some invaluable tips on how to make this happen.
Before taking this course, I was a bit lost on where to start and where to go. I now have a direction and a plan that I feel really good about. Although I am just starting out, I feel a lot more confidence in myself from having taken this course. I also feel like I don't have to take the $10,000 course I had been considering! Thanks so much!..."
...Heather Nicholds. Victoria, BC.
"The information learned in this course is invaluable. For starters, it is great to be able to use a professional camera and actually know how to operate all of the functions and get the best images out of it.
The feedback from assignments is also great because it allows the student to see an unbiased point of view. If I have learned anything it is that not everyone sees what I see in an image and that is important to remember when taking photos professionally.
I know a few professionals whose work would benefit from this course, yet it is simple enough that a beginner can understand and develop an amazing career or fulfilling hobby. Great course!...."

"The "Professional Photography Course" offered by The Photography Institute has moved my photography to the next level.
My photographs are no longer just photographs, they are images that make people go WOW!
My instructor guided me when needed and was critical when he needed to be, yet he remained very positive throughout the process. I like the idea of the instructors being full-time professional in the field.
The diploma is advertised as cutting edge - and this it is!
I have, since starting the program, created my own website and portfolio and looking forward to using the guidelines given to me of starting a small photography business..."
...Mark Parker. Langley, BC.
"This was such a terrific and well presented course with practical assignments and constructive feedback from my tutor.
I learned so much more than I expected and have become more confident when shooting any type of photograph.
I would recommend this course to anyone wanting to learn more about digital photography, especially if deciding to make a career out of it.
Thank you..."
...Lianne Atwood. Huntsville, ON.
"The Photography Institute course has helped me immensely in improving my technical knowledge of camera gear and equipment.
The combination of this, plus practical knowledge has resulted in making me a better, more confident photographer.
Understanding the language of photography is one of the first steps to learning the trade.
The Photography Institute has instilled in me the foundation I needed to begin building my career in photography..."
...Paul Jeffery. Calgary, AB. 
"The Photography Institute has an excellent and cutting edge course from beginning to end.
As an intermediate/experienced photographer, I felt that I might be wasting my money. However, that was not the case! The course offered a lot more than I originally expected and has given me the tools to be a successful photographer.
I've already noticed a huge difference in my photographs as well as my work-flow. My client's see me as a professional because of the experience I've been equipped with along with the definitions ('photography lingo') I was taught. I recently spent about 6 minutes with a client who asked me where I went to school. I asked them why they should ask me such a question. They responded that I was very knowledgeable and they hired only the best! Take it how you may, I got the contract!
Overall, my experience with this course was great. My tutor was very prompt at answering all of my questions, which was fantastic as I could still maintain my work schedule and of course my income while progressing through the course.
If you ever thought about taking a course but didn't have the time to do so, I recommend The Photography Institute. This is not just because of their well packaged program, educated tutors and really nice website, but because you can work in your own pace, without the fear of missing a deadline and failing the course.
This course helps you build confidence and the skills needed to stand out against the thousands of photographers out there!
Thanks again to the team at The Photography Institute..."
...Bill Reilly. St. Catharines, ON.
"A fun and Rewarding Course!
The Photography institute provided me with the knowledge and understanding to be confident in my photographic career.
This course is a fantastic way to learn from the basics of photography all the way to the business side of photography. I found it to be a rewarding challenge, which paid off greatly for me.
Having your own personal tutor answer any questions or concerns was very helpful. Each module and assignment gave me plenty of insight into the topic at hand and although often challenging I didn't find any of the modules to be impossible.
One of the major benefits from this course was the increase in work I received due to what I had learnt.
Whether you are looking to start a photographic career, or just wanting to take up a new hobby, The Photography Institute in my opinion, and through my own personal experience, would have to be one of the best choices you could make.
Thank you to The Photography Institute and my tutor for a great learning experience..."
