The Freelance Photography Course © 2007

The Freelance Photography course is designed to show you how to capture, market and sell top quality Freelance photographic images for both commissioned and stock photography. The Freelance photo course comes with examples of current photo markets, and how to approach them with examples, projects and your own tutor to help you. Over 200 images and 21 lessons take you from beginner to Professional.

Level 2 photography courses assume you know your way around a camera. Start learning freelance photography at home or the office in your own time today, all you need to begin your own Freelance Photography business is here.

The course is divided into 3 modules with both theory and practical projects for you to complete and perfect your skills.

Once upon a time, only big-name photographers and agencies made money. Todays image market requirements are very different from the sixties and seventies ideas of marketing. You can learn how to cash in on the freelance business and start earning money from your hobby.

The Freelance photography course takes you through commissioned photography, where your clients are usually face-to-face, onto stock photography, and how to research your market, find your clients, submit your images and run your business with advice on the law, copyright and other legal matters.

Student Testimonial

...Firstly, let me express my pleasure and congratulations for this course and the School of Photography. As you are painfully aware, engaging anything on the "web" is a gamble. Especially, when the course fee is so reasonable. Clearly you took the time and effort to review every submission and critique honestly and with professional pride.

I'm a little older now and my business career took me away from photography. It's been some 30 years ago that the art of photography was such an important part of my life. So, I'm on the trail of relearning since the days of Black & White darkroom techniques using a Mamiya 500DTL 35mm camera. Fortunately, I have selected a computer technology occupation path and the new digital offerings are right on for me.

Photography is a hobby and someday I might become more serious. But for now, I looking anywhere to learn and practise. Your course was "spot on".

Dan Pettus, student of our Glamour Photography Course.
