The world doesn’t need more beautiful pictures.
We will learn to take beautiful pictures, but we aim to go much further than that.
We create images with strong aesthetic and technical qualities.
The goal of the year is for you to develop a quality portfolio, creating images grounded in photo history, trends, and your unique perspective.
High pace and rich content
We educate photographers who are aesthetically fearless. That's why we cover everything from basic camera techniques, fashion, photo history, portrait, art, documentary, studio work, and more.
We visit galleries, work with clients, and exhibit our work. Our strongest areas? Perhaps portrait, art, and documentary.
We aim to inspire your love for photography and the world, show you a new country, and maybe even a new way of seeing the world. We have ambitious goals, and you’ll help shape them.
Here's what we'll work on
- Camera comprehension
- Composition
- Lighting
- Genre understanding
- Photo editing
- Studio work
- Practical experience
- Portfolio building
- Travel experience
- Study trip to Japan
East Asia is a hub of aesthetics, offering an unparalleled view into the world of art, photography, and modern forms of expression. We’ll plan the study trip together once we meet in the fall of 2025!
Portfolio and student work
We emphasize giving you the opportunity to develop a high-quality portfolio throughout the year. Some of these images will be used in various exhibitions and published in the local newspaper. Our magazines showcase much of the work we do and what you can learn in a year in Sund’s photography program.
