Berlin Workshop Dear Thorsten a short feedback from your workshop. At first I didn't realize what I had learned. The editing and especially the portrait shooting brought me a lot. In addition, the workshop gave me something new. I dared to submit a picture (edited with TVO analog preset) to the Meistercamera street art contest. The picture has now been chosen for an exhibition along with 14 others. It is amazing. Thank you for your influence and the inspiration of your books.

More inspiration, more joy in photography I’ve been to several workshops and walk-alongs with Thorsten. I’ve read all his photography books. My photography has improved to new levels. Thorsten has inspired me to carry my camera around and take pictures. The joy I get doing photography has increased substantially thanks to his workshops and books.

Avoid the hype and save your money I paid for one of his Complete Pack offers which was reduced from $5,688 to just $299. Even with the massive discount I have to say that it still wasn't worth it. In fact I don't think what I got was really worth anything and certainly didn't teach me anything worthwhile. Now my inbox is filled with his emails trying to sell me more stuff even though I have inscribed many times.

In the footsteeps of a Master of photography... A common mistake when you fall in love with photography, is to think that buying gear will bring you talent. Not so. When you're serious about photography, you need to devote quite a few hours, a couple days, to learn the craft by observing from someone who has honed his own craft for decades, like Thorsten Overgaard. I had the chance to be in the footsteps of Thorsten, during a street photography workshop he organised in Paris, and it really opened my eyes on how to have the proper look through my freshly bought (used) Leica. It is the kind of experience that "sticks" with you later, for hours of photographic pleasure. Not only did I learn about the technique but I was able to pick up almost on a philosophical level, an appreciation of life & light that is part and parcel of the craft of true Masters.

My experience is very bad My experience is very bad. I ordered an expensive book and series. I did not receive any sending. Requesting information is not answered. I am going to report fishing at Visa. Hundreds of emails are sent with rebates for his birthday. This is excessive online marketing that I never experienced before. It shows all elements of a scamming business.
