Building a portfolio is even harder.That’s why we made this course - so you can skip the struggle and create 10 stunning portfolio shots in just a few days.- 10 video lessons = 10 final shots- Each lesson includes shooting with both a smartphone and a camera- Minimal theory — maximum practice- By the end — you’ll have polished photos for your portfolioWe designed this course so that even complete beginners with minimal gear can get amazing results.Even if you don’t know the basics — like shutter speed or aperture — you’ll still walk away with great photos.No retouching (just basic color and light tweaks)My name is Aleksandr Steblovskiy. I have been working in commercial product photography for over 15 years, and I have been teaching photography for more than 6 years. (You can check out my work on my Instagram - the link is in my profile.)So, first of all, I know exactly what I’m talking about. And second, I understand the problems that many beginner photographers face.Together with my team, we decided to create a course focused on practice. The goal is to help you get real results right away - strong images you can add to your portfolio immediately. Photos you can look at and say, “Wow, I made this myself,” and feel motivated to keep moving forward.You can always dive deeper into theory later.This course is designed for beginner photographers, as well as bloggers and influencers who want to shoot their own products or client products in a professional and visually appealing way. It is also a great fit for small business owners who want to present their products in the best possible light.In addition, this course will be useful for photographers working in other genres. Product photography is very different from portrait or landscape photography, and understanding these differences can significantly improve your overall photography skills.
