CREATE MEANINGFUL PHOTOGRAPHS GUIDED BY INTENT & PERSONAL VISION
The MasterCOURSE will teach you how to truly see and use photography as a creative tool for meaningful personal expression, revealing not only how the world looks to you but, more importantly, how it feels to you.
Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned photographer, sooner or later, you may feel that your photography has plateaued, and that you are taking the same old pictures in different places. If this sounds familiar, chances are there might be something missing in your images: a clear intent and a strong personal vision.
There is only so much you can learn through isolated workshops, individual books, and online material found on the internet. For the serious photographer who truly wants to make a quantitative leap in their photography, the options have been limited. For this reason, we created the MasterCOURSE “Photography with Intent”: the first coherent, structured, and comprehensive online program for expressive photographers.
The MasterCOURSE is the cornerstone of the Essential Seeing Photography School. It is a flexible and structured distance learning program that will cover in-depth all the steps of the photographic process, helping you create meaningful photographs, guided by intent, from the original message to the final print.
The MasterCOURSE will not only significantly improve your theoretical, practical, and critical skills in expressive photography, but it will also provide you with a holistic view of all the different steps involved. Indeed, light, visual design, composition, post-processing, printing, and presentation are not independent steps but extensions of each other. By becoming one of the MasterCOURSE students, you are enrolling in a structured, coherent, and comprehensive learning program. The unique value of the MasterCOURSE resides not only in the quality of the various modules it consists of but also in the way they are linked together.
The MasterCOURSE is not simply a course based on theory and practical examples. It is truly a learning program with a tried and tested original method to unlock your expressive and creative potential, based on a series of connected Practical Assignments that will guide you throughout the program. These Practical Assignments, linked to each of the different modules of the program, are thoroughly explained through examples and case studies, and will help you activate a mental switch that will forever change your personal approach to photography.
The MasterCOURSE represents the culmination of 7 years of work and the materialization of Rafael Rojas’ knowledge and experience as a Master Hasselblad Fine Art Photographer, his academic depth provided by an MA in Photography, and his pedagogical skills as a former post-graduate university lecturer. This learning program also draws on his hundreds of hours of experience teaching personal photography through workshops, photo-immersion trips, and lectures all over the world.
The MasterCOURSE is, indeed, Rafael Rojas’ biggest contribution to the community of fellow photographers and the pinnacle of his teaching career.
“I am utterly convinced the MasterCOURSE will provoke a turning point in the way you approach your own photography.”
