Photography Classes

Manav Singhi Photography Classes by Art Photographer Manav Singhi, the concept of Photography Classes is to provide complete and thorough training in photography and full support not just while the course is going on but for a lifetime. This is probably the only course which is based on the contents and not just the duration. Which means, making you a photographer is a commitment, whatever time it may take. It is not a training program, where you need to bother about, how many sessions you have attended and about the duration of course. In the unlikely case that we are unable to make you understand a particular topic, we would continue with the same, till you are confident. So, you may cover up the course contents at a faster or slower pace as per your own capabilities. 

The number of students is also restricted in one group, enabling individual attention. In the success of our students lies our success. So, go ahead and unleash your passion for photography.

Broadly speaking the training involves the following parameters during your Course.

Online Interaction - Feedback and interaction is important. Besides direct discussions at the academy. You will be always in touch through an online forum. Post images and questions and get comments and answers directly from our mentors. 

Highlights - Content based training program - the training ends only when you are confident enough to handle everything on your own.

Well equipped studio infrastructure - get hands on experience with professional studio lights and other equipments.

Complete guidance - From buying a camera to setting up a studio and a successful career (Job Placement Assistance).

We have just one course No Basic No Advance just this one complete course and We have planned this course in a way which will going to make you an all Rounder Photographer. Photography is a practical subject so just theory will not going to help anyone cause its human tendency that when you don’t do practically something yourself you tend to forget it easily. We have planned more of the Practical sessions in Studio and on the field so that student can click what they had learned and can resolve any query on the spot.

Important note :- This Course is not for any Casual Photography enthusiast but we need serious candidates who are interested in photography seriously. I Manav Singhi is not at all interested in numbers of Students but I need those students in the school who are passionate about this subject. You make it a profession or do the Art photography in future that depends upon you but you have to be serious about the subject. Once you joined the school it’s my reputation on stake (cause when you will show your clicks to world they will inquire about from where you learned photography) and believe me I take my reputation and work very seriously.

Testimonial of Students

Jimmy Jiten Agarwal

I like how "Manav Singhi Photography Classes" works in many respects. I like that it is not a 'traditional' film school. I like the freedom I had have as students to follow my own train if thought and come up with ideas. I like the equipment available to us for use, as well as the fact that we get to work closely with the teachers on various projects.
