    I have been a Pro for over 20 years. Newly getting into volume photography (5 years). I was very pleased to receive confirmation that I've been on the right track and I got tons of tips and tricks as well. He is very informative and is not shy to share his secrets. I've watched some of this series twice!

    I just completed Matt "The Body's" Creative Live Courses on School and Sports Photography. Having just finished a stint as the photography studio for a mall Santa booth I realized that I LOVE volume work and working with kids in a high intensity scenario. Matt's course hit the nail on the head of getting started and operating a successful professional high volume business. I can't express strongly enough Matt's expertise in this type of photography, his willingness to share everything he has learned and how he operates his volume photography business from start to finish. Kudos to you, Matt, for teaching such an in-depth course on this genre of photography.

    Always shocked at bad reviews. It usually is because people don't read the title. This is about Volume Sports Photography. VOLUME. Cookie cutter, let's put people through lines and get the photo to make a sale. Nothing about this class suggests you will learn something different. Even looking at all the individual segments will give you enough info to determine that. Plus, they are not going to teach you how to use Photoshop or actual basic photography from the start. There is not enough time for that. Plus, those would be whole classes in themselves (which of course you can purchase on here separately to learn about). Most students on here already have basic knowledge of photography and editing; they're not going to try and tackle something like Volume Photography without knowing how to use a camera or editing software. That all being said, this is is an excellent class and introduction to volume sports photography. Matthew is always entertaining and very educational. Will you learn everything about the business you need to know? No. I previously went to a volume sports workshop for a week and learned a ton, but even with that there were things I simply didn't know only because I have never done it before myself. You have to apply what's learned and actually do it and learn from your mistakes. But at least you have a foundation to go off of, and this class is a great starting point to get into the business of volume sports photography. So yes, I highly recommend it!

    Simply fantastic! One of the few courses that has really engaged me from start to finish with practical and innovative ways to grow my business. The step-by-step approach to making volume photography as efficient as possible made me not want to take a break from each segment of the course. I just wanted to keep watching and watching!

  • Darlene H. Apr 24, 2018

    I absolutely LOVE this class! I have been taking team pictures for a few years now, but I'm always open to hearing new ideas to consider. Little things about putting a marker on the ground, instructions to give the kids, and the posing guide were all very helpful. I managed to photograph 9 teams in 15 minute increments with the tips from Matthew. I already told a friend about the class when she asked me how I do my sports pictures.

    I have a small part time photography business, and we've done some volume sports photography (though on a relatively small scale compared to the jobs Matt gets). This class was extremely helpful in explaining the various elements that go into sports photography. I especially like the posing guide, which we incorporated in our last soccer photo shoot. I highly recommend this class for anyone who's interested in volume photography.

    I've watched Matthew before, on Creative Live, and in person. He never fails to entertain and his knowledge is great. This class on high volume sports photography is the best one I've watched. I'm trying to break into this are of business, and he does a great job of breaking down each area. He is a great public speaker, and does a great job explaining what I need to know.

  • U. Aug 17, 2017

    Fantastic class! Matthew is not only a great teacher who easily gets his ideas and thoughts across but he's fun, funny and engaging. I keep coming back to watch again, and again.

  • jeff S. Aug 13, 2017

    This was a great class! Matthew is a master at his craft! Well worth it very informative! would recommend this class if you want to know what volume sports photography is all about and how to get into it Thank you Jeff

  • gregshep . Jul 16, 2017

    I watched the free live streaming for about 10 minutes before I decided Matt's a great speaker with content you cannot find anywhere else in one place. He gets to the heart of each issue I had with sports photography, even subjects that I didn't know to ask! Well worth the time and money.

  • Jason B. Jul 16, 2017

    This is it... The clearly laid out step-by-step path to doing volume sports/team photography. How to start... staff... shoot... process... build a volume sports photography business without compromising your quality for profit. You can scale this easily to your level and as big as you want to go. The bonus content alone would cost more than the class... trust me. I took the Volume School class as well and it was in no way a duplication of the material... it's very clearly a different model and operation plan. Matthew "The Body" is empowering us to benefit from a highly profitable niche'... Get it!

    Being outside the USA many of the topics about Leagues and their practises are irrelevant: however, the class is brim full of great tips and there was a huge amount of good practical advice. I'm not a new photographer - I've been in the industry since 1980 and have photographed tens of thousands of kids at nursery and schools for year - but never sports. The whole sports photography industry does not exist as such here in the UK. Thats the challenge - to create the whole need and fulfil it. With the insights from the two days of talks by Matthew I'm sure I'll crack it. Hugh thanks to you - and your appalling jokes - a man after my own heart!

  • Bridgett L. Jul 12, 2017

    Matthew's classes are always informative and on point. I had not signed up for it but then did at last minute and I am glad I did. If you want to get into volume you have check out this course.

  • Russell B. Jul 11, 2017

    This has been great. I'm looking forward to tomorrow. I have learned so much about large volume photography that I never thought of. Thanks!!! :)

  • N. Jul 11, 2017

    I cannot full express my gratitude for this class. I have done T & I work before but just little aspects of it have evaded me.this class so far has been extremely helpful and it isn't even over yet. Thank you for not just being open, but being kind. Making it a point to say to "Play by the rules" and to emphasize "Run an ethical business" is refreshing. Don't Be Valdemort! ha ha.
