classes - seminars - private lessons

ASOP provides comprehensive, hands-on photography classes for all levels of study, from beginners and hobbyists, to aspiring artists and working professionals.

Our belief is that sophisticated art instruction should be accessible to everyone in Austin, regardless of his or her goals, and it should be available witout having to submit an application or portfolio.

So whether its through our extended classes, our one-time seminars, or through private instruction, we'll paint a detailed and accurate narrative of how photography works, and we'll do it in a manner that is both memorable and engaging. Rather than offering a few tricks and tips on how to get a certain type of picture, we prefer to develop in our students a solid, knowledgeable foundation, which they can then use to create any kind of picture they want.
