"Full-time PPC: I would do it all again if I could! "

Wow, what an incredible whirlwind of an experience. Holger has meticulously designed the PPC to include all the essential information and skills necessary to make it in the industry. Each week, you're presented with a new challenge that not only tests your photography skills but also builds your confidence. You have the backing of a fantastic team of professional photographers as well as your classmates. It's truly surreal when you complete the course and can proudly call yourself a professional photographer. I would do it all again if I could!

"100% recommend!"

I really loved LIoP's! I took their product photography course with Holger, the founder of the school, and learning from people who are actual working photographers really is the best.

"Professional Photography Course"

The course(s) are very well-designed to cover a broad range of genres covering workflow, technical and artistic aspects. The tutors are experienced, passionate, approachable and supportive and the whole atmosphere school is overwhelmingly positive. I learned a lot but importantly had a lot of fun and met some wonderful people. Time and money well spent at LIoP

"Was a great course to take"

Was a great course to take! With a hands on approach and a very engaging and experienced instructor the course offers you all the technical skill set you need to start doing it on your own.

"Highly recommended"

I've already attended 3 different courses (Portrait Photography, Product Photography and Career) and I honestly think this Institute is one of the best. They teach you with very high standards and it's incredible the development you can achieve in such a short period. Both technical, theoric and practical parts are very well covered! Best choice ever taken.

"Weekend Course"

I so enjoyed the weekend course, the class was extremely professional and very interesting. Great venue and friendly people.

"Inspiring professional training"

I was looking for a course that would be led by working photographers, whose industry and technical experience would be a catalyst for becoming a professional photographer myself. The professional training course was more than I could have hoped for. It creates a container for creativity and learning - combining teaching of technical skills with the important task of finding your individual style as a photographer. The school is led by Holger Pooten a highly successful photographer in his own right, who is an incredible mentor and teacher. His vision and passion for the school really sets it apart and I can't now imagine having gone anywhere else.

"I couldn't have asked for a better experience"

I couldn't have asked for a better experience! The classes are small and therefore every student gets the chance to ask questions, practice on equipment and complete assignments. All the teachers are industry professionals who also happen to be amazing at teaching their craft. I felt very well taken care of and could not recommend LIoP enough! I got personal feedback and recommendations on my work and walked away much more skilled and confident in my photography. Beyond having learned so many types of photography and aspects of the industry I also loved making the connections I did with other students and teachers. I'd do it all again in a heartbeat.

I completed the full professional photography course in the fall of 2023.

"The PPC at London Institute of Photography"

I have completed the flexible PPC at LIOP, and what an experience. It's a brilliant course, and you can take each module on an individual basis. I have learnt so much, and it was fun which is also important. So much thought has gone into what is taught, and it opened my eyes to the true magic of photography. I'd be happy to do it all over again.

"I highly recommend anything LIoP has to offer"

I am so glad I took the leap to pursue my photography professionally and LIoP was the right and perfect place to do so! I recently completed the Professional Photography Course at LIoP, which was amazing. All the tutors are extremely knowledgeable, patient and kind and Holger is a real gem! I would highly recommend anything LIoP has to offer to anyone interested in photography at any level.
