Very poor

Very poor course, not even close to being for beginners. Luckily, I only paid £4 on Groupon so not lost much money. They claim that they do not sell on Groupon but it is still there.

Hi Steve, we were surprised to receive this review because we do not sell any courses on Groupon for £4. This suggests that you may have left a review for the wrong company.

Good Course and content.

I enjoyed the course, as I'm trying to get out of Auto mode. I found almost all the modules and content very interesting and informative, giving me a much better knowledge of my camera and photography. Some of the information was a little deep for me, but I managed a good pass at the end, so all in all, I am very pleased with the final result.

Excellent value. Very glad I found them.

Loads of inspiration in the courses, blogs, competitions, gallery, and all the other resources. The tutors are all lovely, friendly and always introducing new ideas to get us involved, as well encouraging with their constructive critiques of members' efforts.

A very inspiring course in photography

A very inspiring course in photography, fun and educational course. A course material that in an easy-to-understand way takes you through the camera's technical world. Good and well-prepared course material. Good teacher who in an educational and positive way explains all parts of photography, from a simple photo to an editing a new world. Thanks so much!

Amazing online photography course!

I was going to write a very long review for iphotography, but I will keep it short and sweet. This is an amazing photography course. Coming from a traditional photography background, I was looking for training to bring me up to date and this was, without a doubt, the most complete, relevant and enjoyable course available online. I have enjoyed every second of it and I will keep going back for more. Thanks everyone from iphotography.

I cannot recommend iPhotography enough

I cannot recommend iPhotography enough. I have been a member for about a year, since I purchased the Home Projects course with some birthday money. I have since purchased a few more of the courses. They are excellent and can be taken at your own pace and revisited later. The weekend challenges really inspire you to get out with the camera and show your efforts on the student gallery. The feedback from tutors and other members is really encouraging with useful hints and tips. I really enjoy being a member of the iPhotography community.

Do not worth the money

I am quite disappointed with the course. I though it may be some exercise with every module. It is just quick explained how to use the tools in Affinity Photo. For the same value, in other websites, you will get a complete course with exercises where you can practice what you have learned. I have done others courses in this website, that were really good but this short course, in my personal opinion doesn't worth the money and the time.

Hi Alicia,

Firstly, thank you so much for your feedback - it's really important that we hear your views on our courses, services or products.

I am really sorry to read that you haven't fully enjoyed our Affinity Photo for Desktop course. It is marketed and designed as an absolute beginner's navigation guide to the software interface rather than an specific editing course (we've got plans for that in the future).

This is why we've not included downloadable resource images to follow along or set marked assignments to complete either as per some of our other courses. Leaving out some of these extra features allows us to keep the course much shorter and cheaper in price.

We'll definitely keep these points in mind for the future when we create a Affinity Photo editing course. Thank you for continuing to be a member of the iPhotography community.

Kind Regards

Stephen

Failure of the iphotography course

I was given the iphotography course as a birthday gift. So I started the course.

When I went back to resume the course and I logged back in and clicked the link to "resume the course", it never worked, but instead kept bring me back to the "buy the course" again.

Appalling service.

Avoid.

Update!

Hello Neil. Thank you for the response below and your associated email. I have responded to the points you raised in a response email and will leave it to you as to whether you wish to publish it on here. I have have also upgraded my review to an "average" on the basis that you took time to respond to my review.

Hello David, we are very sad and disappointed to hear this. Particularly when the solution to your issue was such a simple one; which is to clear your browser cache.

We have no record of any support ticket from you requesting assistance with this issue, so our team have reached out to you directly to help you gain access to the course.

We are currently in the process of upgrading the learning area of iPhotography which could be why you struggled to get access, at that particular time.

iPhotography is approaching its 10th year in business and we've delivered online courses to over 104,000 students worldwide and we work with many household brand names. We could not possibly achieve this level of success had we been delivering such appalling service, as you have suggested.

Once you have responded to our direct email, we will have you straight into the course. Thanks for your patience in this matter.

It started with a phone camera!

I fell in love with photography after learning some simple tricks on my phone. Things like the rule of thirds changed the way I was looking at things and the way I took pictures. My love grew and I began looking for courses online, that is when I found iPhotography. I signed up for the iPhotography course that same day after reading the website and reviews.

The course is modular and builds lessons on top of previous modules. This strengthens previous learning while building upon it further. There is no pressure to complete the course and so you can take it at your own pace. I enjoyed learning a module, then putting it into practice. Once I felt I had done enough I would take the end-of-module test. There are great tips and tricks throughout the course which I am sure I have used all of them.

The website critique, live streaming, and much more all help cement more understanding. I have found these great for increasing my knowledge, ability, and style. This is why I decided to join the iPhotography+ subscription. Here the chances to increase your knowledge and meet others who have taken the course is great. Well worth the investment in myself to be honest.

I enjoyed this course so much I then signed up for the Wedding Photography course which I also completed. I am now trying to decide on which one I want to do next as there are a few and I am indecisive.

The team is great, it's clear they have a true passion for their craft which is very infectious to be around. This pushes you on to try and achieve more and more. They are creating a real sense of community and belonging. I am completely over the moon with my choice and the decision to go with them. The only down side is they will have to put up with me from now on :-)

Keep up the amazing work iPhotography I am here for the ride of my life.

I'm just over half way through the course and am amazed at the content and the reviews on your work are really helpful. Investing in this course is money well spent.

A good short achievable course!

Clear concise tuition from Stephen as usual.
Really useful as a refresher and learnt a few new things. Will be good for someone who hasn’t ever done Affinity before and wants to know a little before purchasing the programme.

iLove iPhotography!

I've been a photographer for many years, and a student of the iPhotography courses for several years now. My experiences with the iPhotography team have all been really great. My photography has grown and improved a lot during my time with them. I've had one or two "glitches" during this time and each time when I went to their support team, it was taken care of and cleared up, quickly and with professionalism, and also with service that went above and beyond. I plan to continue with them, they keep bringing out new courses and services that are really helpful to my growth as a photographer.

My literally life changing experience of iPhotography.

I have been a member of iPhotography + for 16 months now and had been working my way through the original course for some time before that.
I cannot praise the experience I've been given highly enough. The tutors are wonderful and the relationships they build with the students/members are very supportive, friendly and professional. The resources they provide are varied and carefully thought out to meet the needs of the members.
I can honestly say that through the very difficult time we have experienced in the last year, iPhotography has given me a community, fun, entertainment and a unique opportunity to learn and develop skills that I would never have had without them. I look forward to continuing to progress with them and find new opportunities to practise my photography.
