Testimonials and feedback from current and past students of the course

THIS IS THE BEST PHOTOGRAPHY COURSE This course has helped me gain a career in photography. I learned the most important aspects of photography, the definitions of all parts of camera, camera functions, the poses, the editing and the reasons why I actually take photos. Most importantly, I am now a working photographer and my clients are loving my work. I have no barriers to photography, I shoot with my heart and my soul and I know photography, because of Luke.

”
I've done photography courses in the past, they were very expensive AND confusing. It took several weeks to learn what I could have learned with Part 1 alone of your course. And I love that the feeling I have while watching your course is literally like we are friends and we are hanging out on the balcony at night, drinking tea or beer and discussing life and photography. So chill, and so easy to follow. I loved it.

I don't feel like I'm being taught but a supreme serious authority, but instead I feel I'm taking lessons with my very good friend Luke who is a badass pro photographer. I think the gradient is perfect and I love learning new things in a very fun way. It also gave me certainty.

Becoming friends has led me down the right path that I was meant for. While grueling, and not without serious challenges, I couldn't have come so far without your support, friendship and how much you had to teach in the course. I truly mean that, my friend. While the basics were more jogging memory lane, once you dove into session work I was hooked and loved learning everything I could watching your work, charisma and a genuine sense to help others.

BEST PHOTOGRAPHY COURSE OUT THERE This was a brilliant course. Luke is such a knowledgeable and down-to-earth teacher. He doesn't bother with any of that pompous technical jargon that impedes the progress of most learners; he actually cares about your progress and wants you to learn and improve. He is incredibly helpful through his feedback and is also incredibly validating when you get something right. I have watched many 'how to's' and tutorials on YouTube, always keeping the idea that paying for a course is silly with so much free information, but this course changed what I believe. Luke goes over incredibly important and often overlooked aspects of photography that most teachers just assume a student should already know (despite the fact that most dont!). so with that, this course is worth the money and more. Thank you Luke.

LUKE DELIVERS! Having created an unmanageable sized debt from formal schooling, I will tell anyone, if they want to wisely invest their money on learning something, take this course! Luke knows his stuff, he doesn't p*ss around with theory that isn't important and he genuinely helps his students. On top of that, he's a professional and all-around good guy. Ultimately, you WILL learn to be a photographer.

I am really happy with how simple and honest the information is, and how I'm being taught unbiased information (opposed to the "this is good" or "this is bad" way of teaching). It is just real information without the "you need to do it this way if you want to be good". Your lessons are so informative and at the same time I feel like the course centered on me and the effect that I want to create. I think this is the perfect base for me as someone who is relatively new to photography! The lessons are extremely straightforward and easy to understand.
Zoe E.

There was a point as an aspiring photographer where just knowing the basics wasn’t enough. I wasn’t too confident of my abilities and still had many questions until I took Luke’s photography course. His teachings helped me fill in the gaps in areas of photography I didn’t quite understand yet and one of the biggest parts of the course that helped me was learning how much more you can improve your photos using flash and diffusion. Luke has a simple and very authentic teaching style I appreciate. It was also his humor that got me hooked and to actually enjoy watching him teach. I do believe this is a great course for both beginners and for those who have some experience but want to hone their skills. Luke, I just want to say thank you for being supportive when I had questions and for just being a cool dude!

The title says it like it is, pure and simple. :) I love Luke's command of his field (photography), and the way he gets it across so I too can be a confident professional who knows his stuff.
Craig T.

Thank you very much Luke. Thank you!!! I feel I'm being lead in the right direction. I really needed somebody like you to start my adventure into photography. Thank god I have found you. Now I feel I'm in good hands. You are like a lighthouse in the sea, you will continue to show me the right direction so as not to go astray, not to get confused in difficulties, not to abandon my dream and my goal. I really understood what you wanted to convey. I felt the core of confidence within me. These main points that you indicated spread my wings and created space! Well then, fly on! I now feel the certainty and desire to continue to become a pro!

Why I made this course?

This is everything I self-taught myself over 15 years of making mistakes so that you don't have to. I don't care for complexities. I don't care for theory that will never be used. I don't care to spend thousands on equipment which doesn't actually change a damn thing. I care that YOU can create in reality the images you see in your mind. I know it can be done because I've proven it to myself and many others. Now I want to prove it to YOU.
