Your course is inspiring, challenging and very rewarding. You will be happy to know that I am finally changing my camera setting from, wait for it…. auto to semi manual. Never thought I would see the day. Thank you. Hope your day goes smoothly. Look forward to working on my next assignment.

Thanks for your help! Tim

Hi David, I was very excited to receive your feedback and responses to my questions so quickly. A big thank you for your prompt reply and encouraging feedback. I certainly feel I’m improving and gaining confidence both with my camera knowledge and my ability to take an interesting photo. I will certainly make sure to ask more questions when I get stuck rather than procrastinate! Kind regards from a very happy student.

This course was absolutely fantastic. It has given me enough knowledge to self-learn from here on. The tutor, in particular, was excellent. He encouraged me to excel and at the same time corrected me and gave me another perspective. I really enjoyed this course. I would recommend it to anyone who would like to take up a hobby or start in the field. With me, Ijust turned my passion into a profession. Oh, and I am already enrolled in the advanced course.

Good afternoon David,

You were really quick at returning this to me, thank you. I found your notes very constructive and I am open to all your advice re the transgression of being a “happy snapper” into becoming a “photographer”. Was surprised to see that I had done so well but I think in these early learning days you are being less critical and very encouraging which stimulates students like myself to only do better in the next submission. Having written that……one day I hope to knock-your-socks off with my camera skills (that you will be teaching me!).

Have a great day, Janet

That’s it ! …I finally made it to the end.  It has been an amazing journey, looking back to where I started to where I am now.  Thank you, for looking after this course and all the feedback you put in to each and every assignment, it certainly makes a difference.  I have yet to really make any sort of career in photography yet, I still find it hard to head in the one direction.  Since coming back from Malaysia, I have found starting out again difficult at times; the amount of photographers or mums with cameras out here is staggering.  I think I would like to head into more food/commercial photography, it just means working out some marketing.
Anyway .. This was just a short note to say thank you.

The way I approached writing my photography courses was by writing content that I wish I was taught when I studied photography.  I know what you really need to understand to be able to produce the images you want, so this is what I put in my courses.  It is my students work that speaks for the success of the course and put simply, I just love teaching and seeing people being able to express them selves visually.

“I really enjoyed the course. I learnt so much and am thankful for the excellent support I got from my tutor. I gained lots of confidence and the course enabled me to identify my weaknesses and develop my strengths.

I have won awards in shows, been paid for my photographs, and my photographs are being exhibited in galleries. What’s more, I now have my own photography business shooting portraits, weddings and specialist animal photography.

My career is never ending and I learn something new every day. Photography opened my eyes beyond the imaginary. I am so thoroughly enjoying my rewarding and fulfilling career.”
