The London Institute of Photography (LIoP) is a well-known training institute in the Shoreditch area of London from where they offer sought-after courses in various aspects of photography to students from different backgrounds and parts of the world.

Courses are presented by well-qualified teachers, all of whom have worked extensively in the field. Although the Institute is London based, it attracts interest from students from all over the UK, Europe and beyond. Most of the teachers are indeed award-winning professionals.

Great technical skills are taught to ensure that students understand how to best employ their new-found knowledge to take memorable photographs whether of a street scene or still images, for example.

Because the Institute places a high premium on the quality of the instruction they offer, no class ever has more than 8 students, and tutelage takes place in an environment ideal for sharing and imparting knowledge both theoretically and practically.

The Institute offers courses throughout the year; therefore students are invited to peruse the website for dates of courses and additional information such as course fees. Classes are always small and therefore courses are often booked fully weeks in advance. Therefore those who are interested are advised to check back regularly to ensure they book a place on the next available course that interests them.

The Institute offers different courses, some of which are the flowing: the 13 different individual courses that include fashion studio photography, still life photography, and lightroom and photoshop courses. These are only examples; there are various others such as their very popular Professional Photography Course as well.

Various talks by experienced photographers and social media influencers and specialists are scheduled by the Institute with regular intervals. At one of these Holger Pooten, Director, said recently, “We are passionate about sharing our knowledge and expertise with all those individuals that are keen to learn the skills and brush up on their existing knowledge about photography.

“We offer a great number of courses for our students’ benefit, whether to practise their new knowledge as a hobby, or whether they hope to work in the profession. We cater to all. It pleases me to say that our different courses are as popular as ever in the 2nd quarter of 2019 with the result that our teachers remain busy. I want to invite anyone – also beginners – to contact us for information and enrolment.”

Students speak highly of the Institute and are happy to refer their friends and colleagues to them.
