Watching this Course from Ireland live, and at my leisure having purchased the course, I cannot praise Tony Corbell enough. I felt I was right there in the Classroom with him and gained so, so much from stunning course. He really does explain the techniques he uses so well and is one of the greatest Educators that I have seen in photography. Worth every Euro ( Dollar ) !.. Thank you Creative Live and Keep up the good work ! Andy Jay www.ajphotography.ie Cork Ireland.

I had the wonderful privilege of joining Tony Corbell in studio for this course. My husband gave me the opportunity as my Christmas present. It was, without question or cliche, THE best Christmas present I have ever received. I went in to the course at Level 0, knowing nothing about studio lighting, and came out with a wealth of invaluable knowledge. Tony explained everything so well and showed how literally anyone can set up and shoot with studio lighting and get the outcome they want. If you are starting off like I was, with little to no knowledge of studio lighting, wanting to up your game and increase your photography skill, this is the course you should invest in. It has, hands down, changed everything for me.

A very comprehensive class in teaching the core fundamentals of studio photography. No bells and whistles approach, just good old honest education that will last you a lifetime. This class easily compliments all the high-glitz classes relating to fashion studio photography. A good investment for sure. Highly recommended! (Nobody moves, nobody gets hurt! Ain't that right Tony.)
