FEEDBACK FROM THE PARTICIPANTS

Dear Anka! This is such an amazing course! Everything is done in such a detailed, accessible, interesting way. Plus the absolutely amazing charm of Anka herself! With the help of the course, I now see lighting devices in completely non-obvious things, I'm not afraid to play and experiment, I see beautiful and not beautiful shadows, I'm not afraid to shoot against the sun and at dusk. I think I will revwatch it more than once. Thank you!

Anka, thanks for the fascinating immersion in photography !!! I never regretted it! I listened to lectures with great pleasure, and I think that I will do this more than once in order to consolidate the material, and put everything on the shelves, and of course practice, where can I go without it. And, yes, now I know for sure - there is no bad light, and it will no longer be possible to justify your laziness, they say there is no sun, there is nothing to shoot! It was very interesting to watch your "kitchen" and how you prepare photo dishes;) You are an interesting, captivating person, thank you for sharing your knowledge, and you are doing it excellently! 🤗❤️❤️❤️

I watched the lesson "cinematic light at home."
It's just cosmic 😱 !!! So interesting! It helps a lot to understand following the process.
I will try.
I have so many thoughts now!

The student of the course "MAGIC OF LIGHT"
Anka, thank you very much for the lesson about harsh light. The fear of working with such a light vanished by itself, and instead a desire to explore and experiment arose. I am very inspired by your lessons 😌 it was also very valuable for me that you showed directly the shooting itself and the whole process. This also removes the fear of practice. I know now what do do and do not afraid!

Anka, you are an amazing teacher and a very delicate and attentive person. You really gave us all what we expected. Everyone at their own level. I studied a lot in different ways (and I myself am a teacher by education), but I have never met such an involved teacher. Especially from photographers.
You care. You have found a place in the soul for everyone.
Thank you for your work, for all the knowledge and experience that you generously shared with us. Looking forward to new meetings❤️

Just finished watching the second lesson. So much useful information .
Everything is so clear, clear, beautiful!
Also, endless delight from the examples that were shown in practice and in the final photographs. You explain and analyze the picture so coolly and clearly before pressing the button. I also want to be able to do the same, or at least a little bit ☺️ !!!
Natalie
The student of the course "MAGIC OF LIGHT"
Thank you very much! It seemed to me that the door opened to some huge world with a bunch of possibilities and experiments. This is very inspiring and I already want to start trying everything. In general, all the material is presented in a structured manner and without any water, nothing superfluous. Thanks also for the advice on how you can use the various tools at hand. Photography is still not cheap, especially if it is not yet a profession.
Aliaksandra
Ooooh, I watched the first lesson and, to be honest, I'm delighted! I was greatly impressed by home-made light sources, because in my head there was always the installation "professionals shoot with professional light for a million rubles, only this way and no other way", the myth was destroyed 🤯 Anka, thank you from the bottom of my heart for the insight - It inspired me a lot! Experiments should definitely be!
