Stay away from this Awful platform targeting photographers but teaching CGI. Support is non existent, to the point if feels like a scam platform. Stay away from this! Edit: the reply to this review is full of lies. Nothing of it has ever happened. That’s crazy.

Virtual photography internship I’m a Pro Plan member, and have been quite happy with the behind the scenes details you get from the teachers. It’s like having a virtual internship.

Full time academic nerd turned full time photographer Having already completed a full round of education in academia and science, when I decided to transition careers to become a full-time professional photographer at 30 years old, I just wasn't in a place in life to go back and enroll in a traditional education system again. PRO EDU and many of the instructors came into my life at exactly the right time. Though such legendary names such as Pratik Naik, Michael Woloszynowicz, Sandro, Earth Oliver, and more, I was able to hone my long time side hobby into a viable full time career. As a former nerd (ok, current nerd still, but that's between us), I love that PRO EDU tutorials are not just about the how, but also the why. I also love that they're taught in a way that I can then translate a skill taught for one specific area into an entirely different genre. Whether casual weekend shooter or professional, PRO EDU has educational content that everyone can benefit from (plus, the podcasts are hilarious!!)

Best content, EVER! I remember buying my first PRO EDU tutorial a couple of years ago, it was Pratik Naik - Beauty & Portrait Retouch and it was amazing. I liked it so much that I decided to try a few others that were listed at the time. I learned about lighting with Chris Knight, about color with Kate Woodman, Fine Art Portraiture with Gemmy Woud-Binnendijk, how to optimize my workflow with Sef McCullough, and much much more. That knowledge not only helped me technically to develop my skills but it also helped me feel more confident in the decisions I make as an artist in every step of my journey and for that, I can't thank them enough. You guys, rock!

Canceling subscription is not easy. While the videos are educational, get ready for a fight when you are ready to cancel. I signed up for the 12 month contract. When the 12 months ended, I wanted to cancel my subscription. I encountered a lot of difficulty logging into the billing portion of the subscription. I could easily watch the videos, but couldn’t manage my billing. As it turns out, a separate account was needed to do this. However, in order to actually cancel your subscription, you need to email support, which in of itself is problematic. After going through many emails, and high pressure sales tactics, (We want to offer you a once in a life time low price only available now) I was told my subscription was cancelled and I would not be charged again. Well, this month rolled around and guess who got charged again! Me. I got charged again. It should NOT be this difficult to cancel a subscription. I sent them yet another email, but this definitely warrants a trip to my bank. Update: I did receive a prompt response and they refunded me, assured me there would be no further billing and issued me a free month. I do appreciate the quick service. Some companies intentionally make canceling very difficult, whereas other companies simply have inefficient systems in place. It’s hard to tell which is the case here. Regardless, I’ve never had so much difficulty canceling a subscription and that’s disappointing.
