"The hands-on approach while wandering around in various locations is second to none."

"I was a complete novice three years ago when I took my first course with Learn Photography Canada. I didn’t even know how to put the lens on my new DSLR camera! Since then I have taken multiple courses with LPC and would highly recommend them, whether you are a beginner or more advanced.

The instructors are friendly, always encouraging, while helping you to the next level. I have learned so much since that first day, so much that I am now certified by LPC. If you are looking for a certification program that will give you the skills for your own photography business, look no further.

The community you enter with this company is full of photographers willing to help you in any way, whether you need a question answered or would like to practice with one of the members. You don’t just take a course with LPC, you join a family of photographers with the same passion you have who will walk with you beyond the limitations of a class."
