The world of photography is full of different practices, aesthetics, genres and techniques; there are as many photographic styles as there are photographers! It is therefore a very diverse landscape and fascinating to explore, to say the least. After you have learnt the fundamentals of photography, such as camera technique, the basics of composition, portraiture or Lightroom software, it will quickly be possible to follow a more advanced level of training, or develop an interest in more specific subjects.
Of course, there is no limit to what you can learn; it will always be possible to learn and improve. This is why an "advanced" level of training will very often be similar to accompanied practice (by a professional photographer).
If it is necessary to master certain tools before being able to start an advanced practice (for example the use of studio lighting, or a technical chamber), it is then through practice, mistakes and successes that you will progress in a discipline.At THE PHOTO ACADEMY, several workshops take up this idea of advanced learning through accompanied practice:
- Trimester 3, the third level of our long training courses, is spread over 12 weeks and is similar to a project follow-up. A professional photographer guides and advises the participant on the construction of their photographic work.
- Level 2 of our Lightroom training courses is also designed to encourage practice. A tutor will closely accompany the participants during retouching exercises.
Some advanced courses are dedicated to the teaching of specific techniques:
- The camera course teaches the use of a precision camera, often used in architectural photography or the reproduction of works of art.
- The editing course is intended for people who have moved beyond technical considerations and wish to build coherent sets of images.
