Reviews
'Just kicked myself, that is a brilliant tip, how did I not think of it? These videos are brilliant' Wilfie
Learned a lot from this course especially on using light. Will never take a photo without thinking about it again. Loved the way he showed his own shots to illustrate his point. Really great course! Marien Ramgrab
Interesting how you can massively improve pictures with simple tricks!! Jonas Schreyer
What I like most about this class and what sets it apart from other photography classes that I've watched, is that Bernie explains EVERYTHING. Absolutely nothing he does is a mystery: Angles, shadows, lines, diagonals, colors, poses, everything. Watching this course took me from being an absolute scrub to taking excellent photographs with just my smartphone. Thanks Mr. Raffe! Scott Dyson
This tip alone makes the course worthwhile Beverley
This has been such a great course and learning experience for me. You deserve more than 5 stars I gave in the review, I wish I was able to give you ten Diane
There's lots to learn here, and sometimes Bernie can be a real laugh, but you can really tell that he knows what he's talking about. Well worth the money Michael

I'm a professional photographer based in the UK, I'm originally from London's East End where I grew up in the 50's and 60's. I've been passionate about photography ever since my parents bought me my first camera when I was just 11 years old (a Kodak Brownie 127)!
I'm qualified as a photographer to 'Associate' level with both the MPA (Master Photographers Association), and the SWPP (Society of Wedding and Portrait Photographers) in the UK. I've taught other professionals at various conventions, and I'm also a guest speaker on cruise ships
If you want to become a better photographer, but don't want to be bored or lectured to, these informative, entertaining courses are for you.
