I enjoyed every minute of it! Everything we learned we practised on locations, it was a great experience!

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.

Eran is a great photography teacher; with him I learned and understand everything I didn’t before, not even in my country and language. Your classes gave me a good knowledge of my camera and technique, that allowed me to take others courses and improve my photography. I want it to be more than a hobby now.

Ich hatte drei lehrreiche Stunden im Rahmen der Big Five Tour mit Bettina. Wegen des Regens haben wir die Tour etwas abgewandelt und die vielen Tropfen gekonnt eingebaut. Die Tipps von Bettina konnte ich sofort umsetzen und ich bin sehr sehr zufrieden. Ich werde auf jeden Fall noch weitere Touren mitmachen. Vielen Dank Antje

The workshop with Mara was perfect! I came out of the classroom having learned many things that have given to me more ideas for photoshooting and the photos I take from now on! Completely satisfied, I recommend it!

My teacher Oliver was the best! He had very strong points of view on everything — from where I should position myself when taking street photography, to how I should hold my camera, to how I can take magical long exposure shots at night. Some students might find his style overbearing, but as an amateur photographer, I valued his tips and advice so much. I learned so much in 3 hours, and I hope to participate in another class in the future!

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.

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.

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 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.
