Why Choose a 1on1 Camera Course?

A 1-on-1 camera course offers something no YouTube video or group workshop can: personalized, hands-on instruction tailored to you.

Here’s why it’s the best way to learn:

  • Custom to Your Camera: Every brand and model is different. We teach you your camera, not just photography in general.

  • Focused Learning: No distractions, no filler. You get 100% of the instructor’s attention for the full session.

  • Accelerated Progress: What might take weeks of trial and error, you’ll learn in hours with real-time feedback and step-by-step guidance.

  • Comfortable Pace: We adjust the pace to match your learning style—whether you're a complete beginner or already know the basics.

  • Immediate Application: You’ll shoot, adjust, and review on the spot so you know exactly what works and what doesn’t.

If you're serious about improving your photography, a 1x1 session is the fastest, clearest, and most effective way to do it.

Step 1: Book Your 1-on-1 Session

Choose a time that works for you. During booking, you’ll tell us what camera you own (like the Sony A6700, Canon, Nikon, etc.) and what you’re hoping to learn—whether it’s better portraits, content creation, or full manual control.

How It Works

Step 2: Meet Your Expert Instructor

Step 3: Practice, Review, and Apply

Throughout the session, you’ll shoot and review your work in real time. You’ll walk away with:
