This was the best course we have watched so far! So informational." -Beau P."
I loved seeing the BTS and how you used toothpicks to prop up the mangoes! Some great use of colours and creative shots!" -Alaskah W.
"Great course! The tips about props were very helpful as I was surprised to learn really how few expensive things you need, mostly patience + time. The Photoshopping section is very helpful to get tips on selecting, I think that is the most challenging part of editing, so it was good to sit through all four image edits." -Daniela N.
