The school was exactly what I was looking for. I had two mornings of private lessons and learned so much. Bettina was the perfect teacher and knew exactly how to get the most out of the time. She was also so friendly and had a lot of tips on both photography and Berlin! Would thoroughly recommend for any level of expertise!

Everything was great. Noga gave us some good tips and taught us to look at different perspectives to take the photo. Never too old to learn!

Great energy, very hands on, well explained and demonstrated too! I felt like a sponge absorbing photography skills. What a difference in just two days! Thumbs up!

Der Workshop „The Big Five“ war grandios. Das Regenwetter hat dem tollen Verlauf des Workshops nicht geschadet. Im Gegenteil. Bettina hat mich zu Beginn so gut inspiriert, dass der eigene Blick von einer auf die andere Sekunde voellig veraendert wurde. Vielen Dank für den tollen Tag. Ein Tip an alle, die noch keinen Workshop bei der Berlin School of Photography absolviert haben: Anmelden und hingehen… Es lohnt sich! Ich fuer meinen Teil komme auf jedenfall wieder…

Learned about city, street artists and photography. Great Mix, really intersting photo tour.

I have been attending classes with BSOP since Feb 2016 and can say that its worth every Euro put in. The hands on approach is enriching in that you actually put into practice what the theory learnt earlier in class session. The modules are rich in content and the assignments are challenging taking you further in your photographic journey.

Really good course. Didn’t know anything about photography prior to coming and the instructor made me feel comfortable and the experience enjoyable – Thank you!

The Workshop for Beginners combines theory and practice in a really nice way. There was a lot of well structured information and Eran was very patient and found creative ways of explaining. I am more confidant now with my camera and when I look at a photo, I can actually understand the ins and outs. It was a really great and useful weekend. Thanks!

Wir waren in unserer Foto Schulung zwischen 5 und 8 Teilnehmer(innen) und alle unterschiedlichen Kenntnisse wurden bedient. Alle haben sich gesteigert. Das ist eine großartige Leistung!

Highly recommended course, it was so much fun with Mara. She explained everything in detail and very comprehensible. In all, very inspiring and already looking forward to come back for advanced sessions.

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.

I completed the 7-month masterclass at the Berlin School of Photography and it was a great success for me. I started without much prior knowledge, having previously only taken a one-day smartphone photography course (also at the BSoP). That had already motivated me a lot! From there it really took off: starting with the technical basics, artistic fine-tuning and experimental photography, I learned more than I had in a long time. Our trainers were equally committed, knowledgeable and highly motivated, so that this motivation also rubbed off on us participants. And there was a great atmosphere in the group of participants, a lot of mutual exchange and support, just great. Definitely a full 5 out of 5 points, big recommendation!!

I recently completed the 7-month photo coaching and am still impressed and positively influenced by the enriching time in every facet.
I learned a lot about photography during this time and am very grateful for this experience.
The patience that was shown to answer my questions, the many inspirations and different perspectives made the coaching very valuable for me.
Over time, a great community has formed between the coaches and coachees, who have always supported each other.
I found it very exciting and beneficial that the content of the coaching was conveyed by different coaches.
The big highlight was our final photo project entitled “Transformation”, which we were able to exhibit in Field Five.

I don't want to miss the time.
Many thanks to you Bettina, Nina, Rocio, Alberto and my 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.
