What some of Sebastian's students are saying . . .
This experience has taken me to another level in my photography and my life!! You truly are the hardest working man I know. A true MENTOR.
- S. Morovek
Thank you so much for such a fantastic course and all your updates. I love your classes, and I go over and over them and still keep finding something new. You are great at explaining, that is a real gift, to be able to teach what you know. Not everyone can achieve this quality of tutorials.
- N. MacLean
Thank you Sebastian, you've inspired me and enriched my life in so many ways!
- R. Rosenfeld
I am absolutely enthralled with your program. I've learned soooooo much. You are a fantastic teacher, very clear and knowledgeable on your subject and your voice is so perfect for hearing impaired older "students" of photography. Besides the material content, both quality and quantity, the ability to review and revisit any section many times makes your course so much superior to any course or workshop I've ever attended.
- K. Hutchings
Your courses are excellent. I’m a retired dentist who has lectured internationally. I’ve yet to see ANY course, including those in my profession, organized so well.
- L. Barsh
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, expertise and enthusiasm with everyone. Your programs have enlightened me in Photoshop and the making of art where no other program has come close. You have a unique gift. Thank you for expanding my mind’s eye.
- R. Madden
I have NEVER enjoyed courses like I enjoyed the Creative B&W Artistry course and the Photoshop Artistry course. One never gets bored, the pace is well spaced, your pitch is excellent. I hope to do every single course that you present.
- A. Naude
Your teaching inspires and motivates so many, thank you for that from the bottom of my heart.
- S. Masterson
Thank you so much for all the work you are putting into this course. I have learned so much! I have watched every minute of the critiques and have watched the videos in sessions one and two a couple of times already. This is the best value for my money I have ever received on video courses.
- P. Buermele
When you sign up for a course with Sebastian Michaels you are not merely signing up for self-study. You are part of something bigger: a community of digital artists who support, encourage and challenge one another. A tutor who puts his heart and soul into all that he teaches. You will learn invaluable techniques that will really give you an edge as a digital artist. What you also get though is a more holistic approach. There are detailed video tutorials, incredible content for you to use in your artwork, and core tuition on aspects such as how to promote yourself and how to lessen your self-doubt as an artist. Believe me, I am not exaggerating when I say that this course has been life changing for me. A year ago, I dared not even dream that I would be where I find myself today.
- Caroline Julia Moore
I think your courses, explanations and motivational skills are remarkable. You truly speak to me. You are making this so much fun and helping my “inner artist.”
- D. Testa
I'm amazed at your continued generosity in arranging for and offering so many tutorials! I've already started viewing today's video. Had to pause to get some coffee and thought I'd express my gratitude.
- S. Hollingsworth
Thanks so much for offering this training. I also have the Photoshop Artistry lessons. Between that one and the B&W, it's by far the best training out there. I keep coming back to lessons I've watched previously, and each time I learn something new.
- A. Ecenbarger
I so admire not just your knowledge and expertise, I truly love your enthusiasm. It is such a motivator. I'm a little to old to climb trees any longer, but I would have if I could just because you made it sound like such fun. ... Thank you for all your hard work and a big hug to you.
- S. Masterson
This is a most incredible course. I've been a photographer for over 40 years and finally feel that I'm finding my niche.
- L. Coleman
All your awesome bonuses and libraries are sending me in a whirlwind. You've heard this before I'm sure, but, there is so much!!! How is it you are so generous???? And full commercial rights !!!

Let me take the opportunity to say how special a teacher/mentor and all around inspiration you are - you are definitely the catalyst for a new exciting movement in photography and I just think people like that only come along every now and then - you are a gem.
