Shorten your photography learning by YEARS
Learn the fundamentals right in just 30 days and set yourself up for photography success.
When it comes to learning any skill, leveraging a mentor is one of the fastest and most effective ways to level-up.
Mentors have experience.Theyâve have successes and they know what works, theyâve pushed past failures and know what to avoid; theyâve already navigated the road youâre looking at going down yourself and this experience is invaluable.
After almost 2 decades of being a creative across many different disciplines, every time I learn a new creative skillset, I always try to look for mentors because I know how effective it can be. However when I first started photography, I didnât have one, and I wish I did; especially considering just how deep and wide this fantastic visual art can be.
And thatâs the perspective to which I built this course. I had the question:Â âif I had a photography mentor when I was first starting, what would I learn? And how would I learn it?â
This course is the answer to that. Itâs me, mentoring you.
Itâs me teaching you the skillset that has landed me sponsorships and opportunities with almost every fortune 500 brand Iâve ever wanted to work with. Itâs the skillset that is the foundation of how I was able to go pro in photography. But most importantly, itâs the skillset thatâs unique to my perspective and my background; one thatâs deeply rooted in not just photography, but in many creative disciplines and a comprehensive understanding of visual art and its methods, history, and perspectives, learned over decades.
In this course youâll not only be able to learn how to use the camera, but youâll also learn how to see the world as a photographer; how to gain a creative vision; a unique perspective. Youâll learn a holistic view of photography rather than a singular perspective, and Iâll also set you up for success in many of the auxiliary sub-skills youâll need to learn along the way too.
This is the most comprehensive toolkit of skills I could ever give a single person, and I canât wait to teach it to you.
I hope to see you in the course.

Once a day, every day, consistently, for 30 days
Over 10 hours of lessons split over 30 days. Every day features a 15 to 5-minute theory lesson, followed up by a mini-assignment so that we can put what we learned into practice.
Specifically designed to accelerate your learning
Meticulously sequenced to ensure the most efficient and effective path to learning the real photography skills that actually matter in the real world and set you apart from everyone else.
Master the technical skills
Weâll go deep into all of the technical skills you need to know, as well as get you started on some advanced, genre-specific techniques.
Learn the art of photography
Understand how to think and how to creatively âseeâ as a photographer. Weâll cover things like visual hierarchy, finding your true style, finding a purpose, and so much more.
Specialise in a specific genre of photography
Weâll talk about 15 different genres of photography and do a deep dive into the 3 most common ones so you can find the most interesting genres of photography to learn.
What weâll learn in our 30 days together
Over the 10 hours of video content, weâll progressively learn subjects that build upon one another.
To start with, weâll learn a lot about the technical skills that are required for good photography; what I call the âcraftâ of photography. Weâll talk about the best way to think about the exposure triangle, weâll talk about hardware; sensors, lenses. Weâll talk about focus and all of the physical features of modern cameras that we have available to us in the modern age.
Weâll then go into some conversations about light, with an in-depth light study, in addition to the topic of low light that weâll cover too.
Armed with significant knowledge about the craft of photography, weâll then go into what I call the âartâ of photography, and weâll talk about composition, visual language and visual hierarchy, weâll talk about developing a style and finding purpose in your art and really getting to the internal values of why we do what we do.
From there, with both art and craft in mind, weâll then deep dive and attack the genres of photography from a holistic perspective so that we can get a broad view of how photography as a whole works, and weâll be able to plan for which skillsets to then acquire over the coming years.
Weâll talk briefly about editing, and then weâll end the course with many auxiliary topics to photography that are important to the experience of being a photographer. Things like location scouting and planning, back up and storage, sharing our work, creating business, and so much more.
