Architectural Photography Workshop
Special Edition at Gasometer Berlin

EXPLORE ARCHITECTURE IN A UNIQUE INDUSTRIAL LANDMARK

This exclusive two-day workshop offers a rare opportunity to photograph inside the iconic Gasometer Berlin — one of Berlin’s most striking architectural landmarks.

The monumental industrial structure, with its powerful geometry, soaring steel framework, and dramatic sense of scale, provides an extraordinary setting for architectural photography. Its lines, symmetry, textures, and light create endless possibilities for compelling compositions.

Throughout the workshop, you will refine your technical precision and creative vision - mastering perspective control, working with structure and natural light, and elevating your images through professional editing in Adobe Lightroom.

This special edition is designed for photographers who want more than a standard workshop experience - it is an opportunity to create a distinctive architectural portfolio in an exceptional and rarely accessible location.

Please note: This workshop is designed for photographers already familiar with the exposure triangle (ISO, aperture, shutter speed). If you are not yet comfortable with these fundamentals, we recommend attending our Workshops for Beginners Level 1 + 2 first, so you can fully benefit from this advanced experience.

*A good understanding of the exposure triangle is expected.

Customer opinion on the architecture photography course for beginners

Es war eine tolle Kombi, erst der Ensteiger Kurs am Samstag und dann der Fortgeschrittene Kurs am Sonntag. Ich habe viel gelernt und weiss jetzt endlich, wie man in Lightroom, mit ein paar gekonnten Tricks, seinen Fotos den „WOW“ Effekt geben kann.n

Thank you very much, it was a great weekend, I had a lot of fun.

Absolutely top and definitely recommended. I took the master class at the Berlin School of Photography. Here you will learn everything you need, from the basics to the different disciplines of photography, if you want to pursue the path of becoming a photographer. In eight months you will gain insights into still life, architecture, portrait and fashion photography and learn the basics for working with light and setups in the studio. Tasks on each subject area, presentations and picture discussions in the group deepen knowledge and ensure personal development. The atmosphere in the group was very appreciative. The teachers are very approachable and can be contacted at any time. For me, the master class was the best basis for applying to the Ostkreuzschule in order to continue my path.

Taking a photography course in the forest is not an everyday occurrence. In addition to good food, a very good breakfast and a small learning group, we had two companions (Bettina as a photographer, Johannes as a forest expert) who encouraged and supported us all around. After an evening with an introduction and check on our own cameras and background experiences, we were driven into the forest on Saturday and, after a detailed introduction, we had enough time to look for and find our individual path for photos. In the evening there was a campfire in the forest with food (game and vegetables). I developed a very unique feeling about the place, which continued for days, even after the weekend. The photo discussion on Sunday morning was an appreciation of our different perspectives and visual impressions of this forest. Well accompanied by Bettina, who discussed the pictures with us and made one or two suggestions. Angle of view, detail, exposure or perspective. For me, this is a special photography course that I would recommend to anyone who wants to experience the forest in a new way. Depending on the time of year, however, you should be prepared that it can be significantly colder than in the city.

Ich habe die 7-monatige Masterclass der Berlin School of Photography absolviert und es war für mich ein großer Erfolg. Ich habe ohne viel Vorkenntnisse angefangen, hatte zuvor lediglich einen eintägigen Smartphone-Fotografie Kursus belegt (auch bei der BSoP). Der hatte mich bereits sehr motiviert! Von da ging es richtig aufwärts: Angefangen bei den technischen Grundlagen über künstlerische Feingriffe und experimentelle Fotografie habe ich so viel gelernt wie lange nicht mehr. Unsere Ausbilder waren gleichermaßen engagiert wie fachkundig und hochmotiviert, so dass diese Motivation auch auf uns Teilnehmer überschlug. Und in der Gruppe der Teilnehmer herrschte eine Bombenstimmung, viel gegenseitiger Austausch und Hilfestellung, einfach großartig. Unbedingt volle 5 von 5 Punkten, große Empfehlung!!

Ich habe vor Kurzem das 7-monatige Fotocoaching absolviert und bin immer noch beeindruckt und positiv geprägt von der in jeder Facette bereichernden Zeit.
Ich habe in dieser Zeit eine Menge über Fotografie gelernt und bin sehr dankbar für diese Erfahrung.
Die Geduld, die aufgebracht wurde, meine Fragen zu beantworten, die vielen Inspirationen und unterschiedlichsten Perspektiven haben das Coaching für mich sehr wertvoll gemacht.
Es hat sich über die Zeit eine tolle Community zwischen den Coaches und Coachees gebildet, die sich auch untereinander immer unterstützt hat.
Ich fand es sehr spannend und förderlich, dass die Inhalte des Coachings von verschiedenen Coaches vermittelt wurden.
Das große Highlight war unser Fotoprojekt als Abschluss mit dem Titel "Transformation", welches wir im Feld Fünf ausstellen durften.

Ich möchte die Zeit nicht missen.
Lieben Dank an dich Bettina, Nina, Rocio, Alberto und meinen Coachees❣

I took the course for beginners and am super satisfied! I learned a lot about using the camera and was also able to get to know many beautiful corners of Berlin from inspiring perspectives. I can recommend the course with a clear conscience☺️

I had a new camera and barely knew how to use it. In one-on-one lessons with Bettina, I not only learned the technique, but also developed an unexpected enthusiasm for photography in a very short time and will definitely continue. Thank you for this quick and individual introduction with a good price-performance ratio.

I absolutely enjoyed my course at the BSoP after being a guest at the Vernissage of the Master class. I learned do much and my photographic skills improved massively. Thank you - next time again. I can recommend it strongly.

My impression after a beginners course: Far from a professional school of photography. A very old-fashioned presentation was shown for the introduction. There was no apparent concept to me all day...I didn't learn anything that I wouldn't have learned better from books or YouTube tutorials. The handout that was sent to us later was not very informative. Plus point: Bettina called me after this review to see what she could do better. Unfortunately, the conversation and their arguments did not convince me and I still cannot recommend the course.

I loved the "Nature Photo Experience" course! Was a super interesting setting for a the course and was a great way to get out of the city and see the forest in a new way.

I'm very satisfied. I really enjoyed the photography course for beginners levels 1 + 2! It was very professional and personal, with lots of practical exercises.
I can now finally use my camera properly and take the photos I've always dreamed of.
I will definitely take more photography courses and can only warmly recommend it to everyone

My partner and I did the Level 1 course with Alberto and really enjoyed the course and our day! Alberto was a professional and thorough teacher while still leaving lots of time to ask questions and get creative. Would definitely recommend this course to anyone hoping to learn more about their camera and start to embark on their first steps to becoming a better photographer.

I highly recommend the Forest Photography course to anyone who wants to learn more about photography and be closer to nature. Bettina is very inspiring, full of interesting stories and a skilled photographer. She hosted us in an idyllic setting, thought us the most important photography techniques and guided us on a forest bathing to awaken our senses and creativity before we could wander off on our own to put all that we learned into practise. We concluded the day with soup and cake and reviewing the photos that we took that day. For me it was an amazing experience.
