It was fantastic – I learned a lot in a great environment with a knowledgeable, fun and patient teacher.

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.

I just wanted to say, your course really added SO much value to my life and I’m forever grateful. I use the things I learned all the time and these days I’m making my own artwork for my musical releases. And because of what you taught me I just love photography more and more.

I did a 5 (half) day intensive course with Bettina a couple of years ago. Not only it inspired me to push my photography to the next level, her insights and teachings are still very much part of my photography today. I enjoyed the balance between practice and theory and the feedback we photographers so much crave. I definitely recommend the BSF for beginners and the more advanced professionals. You won’t regret it, even better so, you will definitely enjoy it and learn a great deal about yourself as a photographer.

Es war super! Es fühlte sich an wie eine Reise in die Vergangenheit. Die Gegenstände wurden durch unsere Fotos wieder lebendig. Ich nehme tolle Anregungen und Ideen von dieser Fototour mit.

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 experience with the Berlin School of Photography. I did 3 courses with Bettina: The last GDR, Blue Hour and Street Art Tour. Very relaxed approach to each student during theoretical and great atmosphere during the practical part of the course. You learn many photographic skills to achieve better compositions/photographs. You get to learn about photography and you get to know and see certain parts of Berlin that you normally don’t see as a tourist(like me from Croatia) I would love to do some other courses as well. I recommend.

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!

I initially attended this course by pure interest in demystifying the many features of a camera and how to take good pictures. The class really ignited a much greater interest in the field of photography, as the content is clear and the theory is directly applied with your own camera. I highly recommend this course.

A fabulous course. Bettina’s patient and practical approach really helped me put into practice the technical information I didn’t know how to apply before the course. As well as new techniques I learnt to look at a scene to decide on composition, focus and correct metering before taking the shot. What a fantastic way to explore and learn more about Berlin – a holiday where I didn’t feel like a tourist. I now have good practical advice to build on for the future.
