Graduate Success Stories

Real achievements from photographers who started their journey with us

From Hobbyist to Portrait Photographer

Matilda Papadopoulos | Portrait Photographer, Melbourne

After years of taking photos as a hobby, I decided to pursue photography professionally. The Foundation and Advanced courses gave me technical knowledge. Within six months of graduating, I opened my own portrait studio in Melbourne's inner suburbs.

The instructors taught camera settings and helped me develop my artistic approach and understand the business side of photography. Today, my work has been featured in regional publications, and I have clients. The investment in education was a good decision for my career.

Building a Commercial Photography Business

Declan Murphy | Commercial Photographer, Sydney

I came to photography from a marketing background, wanting to combine both fields. The Commercial Photography Masterclass taught me how to shoot products and run a business and communicate with clients effectively.

The client projects during the course built my portfolio and gave me practical experience. Now I work with brands across Australia, shooting fashion campaigns and product catalogs. My studio employs two assistants.

Working as a Freelance Photographer

I wanted to travel and document stories through photography. The Advanced Professional Program gave me technical skills and business knowledge. I learned about lighting in various conditions and working with publications and clients.

Since graduating, I've worked on assignments in twelve countries across Asia and the Pacific. My images have appeared in travel magazines, online publications, and corporate campaigns. Freelancing allows me to choose projects that align with my interests.
