I attended Martin's Landscape Masterclass last week, and I found it to be a unique opportunity to improve not only my landscape but also other genres of photography. When you're on location, Martin takes time to make sure that your composition is good, and offers very useful advice on how to improve it - even if it means that he has to clamber over rocks or get his feet wet to get to take a look at the image displayed on your camera! The classroom tuition and guidance/suggestions on how best to edit your images is very useful and practical. Martin also goes out of his way to make sure that you can get to suitable locations as the weather and other conditions change. Before attending Martin's course, I would never have thought of taking a slow shutter speed photo from the position in the picture, or have had the confidence to do so!

I enrolled on the fine art photography course as I was looking for new techniques to further my art photography. This course delivered well above my expectations with in depth teaching delivered in a friendly and encouraging environment. Martin and Sam have been excellent to deal with throughout. Professional, responsive and just an absolute pleasure to be guided by them. I attended the course on line and it was excellently presented with great interaction between Martin, myself and the other 5 attendees. Martin and Sam's art works are simply stunning and it is great to see behind the scenes and be taught how to achieve this level. I highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to delve into their creativity and find new ways of expressing it. It has massively inspired me and I am now creating some amazing new work. I can not thank Martin and Sam enough. Cheers Paul
I have had the first two lessons of this Fine Art Photography course and I am loving it. Martin is not only an amazing artist and photographer, but also a wonderful teacher. His communication skills are excellent and he is a great guy with a good sense of humour. The course presentation is clear and concise and the information is delivered very professionally with excellent course notes and back up instruction videos. I wondered if I would get value for money for an online course, but we are a small group of students and Martin is able to give us individual attention. I am now enjoying the fact that I can enjoy the lessons in the comfort (and safety) of my own home. A bonus is that most of the group are from other countries. I always enjoy international interaction. Martin is helping us to think creatively and I am enjoying a whole new aspect of photography. I feel privileged to be able to learn the creative techniques which Martin has developed over the years and is generous to share with us. To summarise, this course is enjoyable, exciting, stimulating, well presented and good value for money.
It was indeed a privilege to spend an entire week immersed in photographic and creative learning with the remarkable Martin Osner, his daughter Samantha, and the photographic art world that they inhabit. For me, the measure of success of the week is getting to look at some of the images I have left with, knowing with certainty that I would never have managed anything of that standard just the week before. Martin is incredibly generous with his knowledge and skill, and allows each individual on the course the freedom to follow their own perspective, and develop the skills to enhance these. Beyond the technical learning, growth comes from being made aware of what is possible to strive for, and from being encouraged to open your mind beyond its comfort zone. Besides learning the techniques to apply to any landscape opportunity, we explored creative skills in photography, processing and editing, and in-camera processing, all of which could be applied in any area of photographic interest. Thank you for a wonderful week - it was an unforgettable experience. I will never wish the clouds away again!
WOW- this is it! Finally Fine Art Photography found its way to me. In the last couple of years I was trying so hard to match time and distance with you, Martin, to take part in your course. With this online course you are right here in Germany. In these difficult times it is the best thing that could happen to me. I get up in the morning, cannot wait to get to my desk and explore all the exciting things that you teach us. Finally I can experiment with photography, trying out new mediums, having a laugh at all my errors, being astounded by what comes out of my photos. The good thing is, you don’t have to be a professor of Photoshop, Bridge etc, you can even be imprecise. I love it all! Your gentle and patient way of teaching is heartwarming. To be with lovely people from allover the world is inspiring. I will be with you in February 2021 for the next Course in Fine Art Photography. Can’t wait! Thank You Martin and thanks to all the other partners in trial and error. Evi Schwarz, Germany
So we attended the landscape course with Martin. I have had the pleasure of Martins teaching many years ago and once again we received a masterclass on how it should be done. The attention to detail and the techniques employed were absolutely correct. The syllabus was adopted to the classes requirements and as such we achieved greater results due to the focus. More importantly Martins method of instruction is very hands on and and his time is spent assisting the students as opposed to him photographing and the class trying to emulate him. This was a fantastic experience and I have already made arrangements for an updated class in 2022.
When I signed up for the Fine Art Photography Course I knew that I wanted to do something different with my photographs but didn't know how and what to do to make it different. Well... Martin opened up a whole new world for me! With his kind and gentle way he encourages one to think out of the box and try things that you would never have thought of doing. At the same time he was always there to give advice and encouragement. I learned and enjoyed it so much that I decided to do the follow up course as well. If you want to learn how to make beautiful fine art photographs... do this course. It is so worth it!
