GOOD DAY, I HAVE NOT TAKEN ANY OF THE CLASSES OFFERED- (THOUGH I LOVE VIK'C WORK.) I HAVE TAUGHT POSING AND HAVE WRITTEN 4 BOOKS ON THAT SUBJECT, AND I JUST WANTED TO SAY TRY NOT TO OVER THINK THIS-PHOTOGRAPHY IS A ART FORM AND SHOULD BE ENJOYED AS SUCH. BECAUSE OF THAT THERE NO "GET RICH QUICK" ABILITIES HERE.HARD WORK AND TENASITY IN YOUR ART WILL SERVE YOU WELL. SO, LEARN ABOUT YOUR CAMERA, THINK ABOUT "YOUR" TARGET MARKET-PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY, WEDDING, COMMERCIAL,CHILDREN'S ECT. THEN LEARN THAT VENUE ( THATS NOT TO SAY YOU CAN'T DABBLE IN THE OTHERS ,OF COURSE YOU CAN. BUT IF YOUR GOING STRAGHT FOR THE BUSINESS OF PHOTOGRAPHY YOU'LL NEED A TARGET) THEN PRACTISE YOUR POSING AND LIGHTING FOR THAT PATICUAL ARENA.THEN HIT THE BRICKS.YOU WILL HAVE TO SELL YOURSELF AND WATCH CLOSELY FOR OPPERTUNITIES TO SHOW YOUR SKILLS. HOPE THIS HELPS A LITTLE. DEBBY TABB

Hi Kalina, It is very difficult to choose between the many great courses that we offer. You have done a good job narrowing it down to a couple of choices. Have you looked and compared both of the course outlines for those courses? Jim Zuckerman's Making Money: Vik Orenstein's Business of Photography: http://www.betterphoto.com/reviews/reviewItemDetail.php?reviewItemID=3898 http://www.betterphoto.com/reviews/reviewItemDetail.php?reviewItemID=5515 And finally, I would suggest, (if you still are having a difficult time), looking at the images of both of these instructors. Which style of photography are you drawn to? It is difficult to choose between our wonderful line-up of instructors. If you still need help feel free to email me: Heather Young
