Smartphone Photo Course: For Expressive and Beautiful Smartphone Photos!

Nowadays, with more phones than inhabitants in Germany, most people own at least one smartphone. Every modern smartphone contains a fairly decent camera, which is often used to take photos for social networks or other occasions: from snapshots and selfies to food, nature photography, and vacation photos—essentially, everything can be photographed with a smartphone. Whether these photos are beautiful or not is often determined by the viewer. However, there are numerous aspects you can consider with a smartphone to create meaningful pictures. For this reason, we have created a smartphone photography course to teach you the most important basics of smartphone photography.

Smartphone Photography Course: Tips and Tricks for Smartphone Photography

You think that anyone can take pictures with a cell phone? We completely agree with you. But for impressive and beautiful pictures, you need a bit more than a trigger-happy finger. This is exactly what we want to teach you in our smartphone photography course. The four-hour course takes place on Saturdays once a month. We will cover the basics of exposure and focus. Additionally, we will provide tips on image composition and portrait photography. Another aspect of our course is the panorama function. Along with many practical exercises, we will also show you the best apps for quick image editing.

Smartphone Photo Course - Small Number of Participants for High Learning Success

In our smartphone photo course, we emphasize a small number of participants: a maximum of eight people. This way, we can focus on each individual participant and practice intensively. As a result, you will learn faster, and we can practice even more, which is essential. Book your smartphone photo course directly here on our website. You can also use our smartphone photography course as a gift; for this, you will find an appropriate online form for a voucher. If you have any further questions, please contact us. We will be happy to help you!

Customer Review on the smartphone photography course

It was a great day!

Now I finally know what my smartphone camera can do. The photo exercises were a challenge at first, but after Bettina told us a few tricks, it was actually child's play.

Thank you very much, now I enjoy taking photos with my smartphone even more.

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 how to use 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.

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.
