Es war super! Individuell abgestimmt, tolle Impulse, sehr viel gelernt.

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.

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!

Bundestag – Tobias Herrmann

Im Fotoworkshop habe ich viel gelernt. Es war sehr spannend und unterhaltsam. Es müsste weitergehen um es zu vertiefen.

Bundestag – Rüdiger Herzog

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!

I took the beginner’s workshop in English. Eran was a great teacher, clearly very knowledgeable. I learned so much about my camera, including the fundamentals of aperture, shutter speed and ISO. I would have liked to learn a little about composition, but I do understand it’s important to know the technical aspects of the camera first. I would definitely recommend this course — thank you so much!

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.

Evelyn Sommer

I really enjoyed the balance of practical work and being in the class room.

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.

Nature Photo Workshop – Lucie Pol

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 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.

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.
