Earthschooling Photography Course

9-Week Photography Course with Personal Evaluations

This class is designed for students interested in learning about photography or practicing their passion for photography. This class includes instruction on basic photographic technique, 100 days of practice lessons, a section on wildlife photography, portraits, action photography, close-up photography, art and abstract photography and much more. At the end of this course there is an online exhibit of student work with awards.

All student work is critiqued by the instructor in the forum.

This class includes 9-weeks of video sessions where students work through the material together. However, students can also work at their own pace.

Future photography classes are included in the price so your student can "pop into" the classroom any time in the future after they finish the class and meet other students. Enrolled students remain a member of the class and the student chat room for life.
