Step 1: FOUNDATIONS
Your path toward Certification starts with the completion of our 6 fundamental core courses, which will set you on your way to producing beautiful photographs. These courses are completed in one-to-one, or small group sessions in the city of your choice. Each class takes place over just one day, and includes everything you need for the perfect experience, from free camera rentals, to comprehensive course notes, lunch (where applicable), and even access to the online version of the course when you are finished in person.
The IN PERSON courses included in this phase of the Certification are:
Digital I – Beginner Photography
Digital II – Motion & Light
Digital III – Landscape & Travel
People Photography
Night Photography
Lightroom Photo Editing
Step 2: MASTERY
In this Phase, we will take a deep dive into the key photography skills you need to become truly exceptional. Here is where you will begin to discover your style, your passions and your talents. In this phase, you will be heading ONLINE, and joining our Photography Mastery Program. This is a 6 month program that meets 4 times each month on Zoom. You will be joining an existing cohort of other incredible and passionate photographers, growing your networks, and connecting you with friends and colleagues around the world.
The following is included in this unique and world class online program:
- 6 months of interactive online group learning

Step 3: CERTIFICATION
The final phase of our Photography Mastery Program is to submit for your LPC Photography Certification. Most students will complete this step as one of the 6 projects in the Photography Mastery Program. Your submission consists of a 30-image portfolio that must demonstrate a good grasp of a variety of skills and techniques. You must be able to demonstrate proficiency in shooting a wide variety of subjects in a number of conditions.
Your portfolio will be assessed by the LPC team and this will form the basis of your Certification accreditation. To ensure you reach your full potential, you may be requested to re-submit certain parts of your Portfolio before certification is granted.
Once you have earned your Certification, you will be ready to enter the photography world with confidence! You will also receive:

"Learn Photography Canada has been a wonderful experience and thought me many things which helped me start my own pet photography business.
Before taking these classes, I would never dare to take pictures in full manual mode by fear of missing some good pictures.
Now I can say it was the best thing I have learned to do and brings out a whole new perspective and challenge at taking pictures.
To sum it up, it was an excellent all around experience from the staff to learning so many things about photography. I would recommend without any hesitation!"
