Who Are We?

The Photo School is a boutique educational provider, delivering secondary and tertiary level photographic training. Our programmes are designed for passionate, enthusiastic, motivated people who love taking photographs.

We offer programmes that introduce and develop skills in technical photographic and creative image making, business skills for photography, and in modern digital and traditional through to antique processes. The emphasis in all instances is for practical, hands-on education that is accessible and seated in real-world photographic practise. Our programmes lead students to careers in a wide array of professional photographic applications.

Tertiary programmes are delivered from our purpose built facility in Raumati Beach, on the Kapiti Coast. Some components of Practical and Advanced Photography are delivered at the Porirua and Kapiti campuses of Whitireia Community Polytechnic. Students find it rewarding and liberating to study in our unique environment.

Secondary programmes are delivered in schools around the country, and Gateway photographic training is offered online, for secondary students and beginner photographers who find distance learning to be a necessity.
