    Photography Courses
    Hello there!

    I'm interesting in changing career and have always been interested in photography. Can anyone recommend the best course to go on that will lead to a recognised qualification?

    Cheers :)

    That is a BIG question. Very generally speaking there are many colleges and universities offering on-campus (i.e. Professional Photography Programs, Professional Photography School) and online courses -some accredited with a degree-some without. It may boil down to what is best for you-what type of photography are you most interested in, what types are making the most money, do you want to attend full-time, etc. etc. I know I have not answered your question but I wanted you to consider a couple of things above. (I attended a college taking night courses on campus many years ago and studied advanced photography-no degree-but it did help me get jobs at photo labs in 3 countries-one lab 14 years! At these labs I got to not only do processing but make enlargements, copy old photos, shoot portraits, take product shots and also shoot location events & weddings). If you Google "accredited photography courses" you will see many possibilities. I'm sure other responders to your question can also give valuable, helpful input. Hope I could help a bit. Photography is a wonderful career -especially if you get really good in a particular area and can understand color, lighting, composition, etc.
