Student Feedback - The Freelance Travel Photographer Course
“The past 2 months have been a game changer because of the clarity and support of this course. You have created an amazing resource, and more importantly, you have opened up the industry in a way that I have never seen anyone else do before - although I do of course know this is your style from previous courses!! Having a sense of structure, direction and a ‘friend and mentor’ on my side has been key in being able to get myself motivated to pitch some of my images to a well-known publication.” Rae, UK.

“I just wanted to say a massive thank you for your courses. They have given me so much help and confidence while moving my little business forward. The travel course has meant that I am now happy with my site and I have already been approached for two travel photography jobs and am working with a publisher to include specific images in a travel guide that is being published in the new year. None of this would not have happened without your guidance and support. ”

"The way Lisa delivers her courses and the value within them, is by far the best value for money and the level of detail and knowledge she shares is incomparible to any other course out there. Quite simply, I've never found another photographer that can match Lisa's courses, I'm so grateful to have found such a brilliant photographer and teacher to learn from."

“I am constantly referring back to the information Lisa provided, and challenging myself in new ways with the content. I've been dabbling in photography for 20 years, and still learned some amazing new things from the early chapters on composition techniques. The content that I was most looking forward to - pursuing business in the industry - did not disappoint, but I found that the most helpful content for me was actually in honing my niche and portfolio.”

I had followed Lisa on Instagram and admired her photography for quite some time when I finally decided to purchase her course. It was *so* worth it. I love her teaching style. And, I was able to put into practice some of her techniques immediately like adding foreground objects to provide visual interest. She can definitely help you elevate your photography skills so don’t hesitate to purchase any of her programs!

“This has been such an enjoyable course for me. I came into this workshop with a year of experience behind my lens and mostly self taught. I’ve gained confidence in my work, so much so that I started to sell my prints. It’s really been an incredible journey and I truly believe that Lisa’s course was the catalyst to get me going”.”

"Finishing the course was a little sad as I loved every workbook. My favorite part about all of this is the community and support. Meeting amazing people and being able to connect from across the world is a feeling I will never get over. I can’t wait to see what our journeys hold!”
Jessy Sanchez, USA
