Thank you so much for the kind and helpful review Toni.

It was such a pleasure to have you in class Amy.

It was such a pleasure having you in class Lizzie! I am so excited to follow along on your photography journey.

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback Emily! It was such a pleasure getting to know you in class.

Thank you so much Stephanie! I am so glad you felt the Full Participation was so valuable to you!

One thing I loved about this class (along with all the classes I’ve taken at click photos school) Is how well the material is organized and presented. I love the combination of the PDF and the videos along with the weekly Q&As.

I had often been hesitant to bring out my big camera in new lighting situations and opt for a cell phone instead to capture the moment, but now I feel much more confident going forward! I’m so happy I took this class.

Hi Elina,
I’m not sure when I’ll be teaching the next run of this course. I imagine it will be sometime this fall. <3 I'll be sure to announce it in social media, so stay tuned!

Absolute pleasure – I loved your class!!! Likewise I love having discovered you on IG and love following along. You will always be the queen of pullbacks for me!!

Thank you so much Lara for your kind words! I agree that if you can swing it, full participation classes are so valuable. So excited to follow along with you and your images on IG.

Thanks so much for your detailed review Barb! It was such a pleasure to have you in class. It brings me such joy to see others really “see” light around themselves.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback Tessa. It means so much to me and know it will be helpful to others considering the course!

Hello Emily. The next run is usually about three months after the current one so I am guessing late December or early January but D’ann teaching that run so I am not 100% sure.

D’Ann has a gentle, encouraging demeanor about her and is very present on the forum. She welcomes any and all questions and provides timely and meaningful feedback. She creates such a nurturing atmosphere on the forum that photographers from all abilities and experience levels are comfortable sharing.

And then there is D’Ann! It seems so appropriate to take a class on understanding light from a being made of it. She is so knowledgeable and has such a clear kind, supportive, heartfelt, funny, warm , open way of relating information and answering questions and interacting with everyon. It is so clear in her way of relating that all questions are safe to ask. She is one of the most generous teachers I’ve had the pleasure to learn from and her body of work is so breathtaking that it is inspiring. If you have the opportunity to learn from this brilliant woman, do it. Truly. You will be so grateful you did and your world will be a little brighter and more full of light because of it.

Kathrin it was complete JOY to teach you during our month together! Thank you so much for all these kind and loving words. I’m so happy you understand light now at a much deeper level.

Karlee is an incredibly talented and gifted teacher and artist who is so generous with her time, knowledge, and talents. She goes above and beyond to answer any questions or to explain an idea with her own personal examples and videos. She also helped me to see how to see and use light in different situations — I used to think I could only take good photos at certain times of the day, but with Karlee’s encouragement and detailed and insightful feedback on assignments, my perspective has really changed. Now I look at light everywhere I go and am so excited to go out and experiment with the light!

Thank you Karlee for your guidance, encouragement and inspiration. I’m so sad that this class is ending but am truly grateful for this experience with you!

Hi Kathryn

So sorry for the delay in responding to this. This is a great class to take after mastering manual exposure!

Thank you,
Kathrin Brown

Hello Janice. No, there is no other equipment you will need!

Hi Linda. I have a 110cm 5 in 1 reflector. You could also use a piece of foam bird with a black side and a white side of that is easier for you.

Hi Lisa, sorry for the delay. Full participation allows you to ask the instructor questions anytime during the four week class that suits you. The materials are yours to download and keep. The only time sensitive aspect of full participation is when you submit assignments each week. You submit at the end of each week and the instructor will do a personalized video critique for you. Let me know if you have any more questions.

I also really loved having D’Ann as a teacher. She’s so inspirational, kind, and a total role model. She answered everyone’s questions with such care and really make the class an interactive and positive experience.

This is a 5-star class I would recommend to anyone looking to learn about lighting.

If you do Study Along you can download all the materials and do the class whenever suits you. You just have to download all the material before the end of the course. I have had all levels of photographers in this class, it covers light basics as well as more advanced techniques.

Karen I am so glad you took the class and it was so beneficial to you!

The community aspect is my favorite part about Click Photo School classes so I am so glad you highlighted that here. You were such an amazing classmate!

It was such a pleasure having you in class Rachael!

Tamara this review means so much to me. Thank you!

This response is probably a little to late but in case anyone else is wondering it is typically offered 4 times a year (every 3 months).

Hope we really do get to sit together and have coffee one day Lauren! It was such a pleasure to have you in class!

Wish I could have seen that happy dance Tara! Thank you for being such an amazing student!
