FAQ
Where does a photography course for beginners start?
From where you decide to capture the world through your eyes.
This course is designed specifically for those who have no experience.
Even if you have only taken photos with a mobile phone or do not know what the camera buttons do, it does not matter.
You just have to want to see, and I will teach you how to become a real photographer.
Unique features of the online photography school for beginners:
Suitable for all ages from 6 years old
From a creative child to a curious teenager, or even a 70-year-old adult who has just become interested;
These photography courses are designed so that everyone can start with any level of literacy and understanding.
No need to buy any expensive equipment or cameras
Relax! You do not need to spend money from day one.
You start with your simple mobile phone, and I will teach you what to buy based on your interests (portrait, nature, fashion, or…).
That is, before you spend money, you will learn what is useful to you, fully consciously.
Professional photography training with simple, visual language, with engaging exercises
I will teach all concepts such as composition, light, color, emotion, and storytelling with images in the simplest way.
Not with formulas, not with difficult terms; but with real examples, entertaining exercises, and step-by-step guidance.
This is not just a photography training course;
This is the beginning of a journey; a journey into the beautiful world of seeing, feeling, and creating.
You are not only going to learn photography, but also to speak with your photos, make an impression, and maybe one day… change the world with your gaze.
Start, without fear. Whatever your age and whatever your level.
I am by your side to find yourself on this path.
Is the online photography course certificate valid?
Yes, a formal technical and vocational qualification is valid all over the world, but let’s take it a step further…
In today’s world, what really gets you started is not just a “paper degree”,
but real skills.
And that’s exactly what you’ll learn in my photography courses:
Practical knowledge, real skills, and experience that will benefit you — not just your resume.
What’s the use of the technical and vocational qualification you receive?
1. Can be used to build a professional photography resume
2. Can be presented to apply for a license
3. Can be presented in different countries to prove skills for freelance, artistic or elite visas
4. Can be used as part of an educational portfolio to teach or recruit students
But what’s more important than a degree?
Being able to take a photo that will make everyone happy.
Being able to tell a story with light, composition and emotion.
That an employer, client, or competition judge will fall in love with your photo before they even see your certificate.
A certificate is not the end of the road…
A certificate is a confirmation of the start of your professional journey.
And I give this certificate to someone who has truly learned, practiced, and is ready to create the future.
What camera do I need to start learning photography?
You don’t need a camera to start learning photography!
If you already have a simple mobile phone, you’re ready to start.
The biggest mistake many people make is thinking that they need to quickly buy expensive cameras and professional lenses to get started.
But the truth is:
Learning photography starts with learning to “see” things, not with buying equipment.
In my photography school, there is a whole specialized section titled:
“What camera for whom?”
In this section:
• You will learn what lens to buy for what camera
• You will find out which camera model is suitable for your favorite genre (such as portrait, nature, fashion, street photography or advertising)
• Depending on your budget (whether it’s 20 million or 200 million), I will recommend exactly what to buy so that you don’t overspend or make mistakes.
That means before you spend even a single riyal, you will be fully aware of what you want, what will benefit you, and what will shape your future.
The truth is:
You can take your best photos with the most basic equipment
And ruin your worst photos with 100 million cameras…
If you have not learned to “see rightly” and “think rightly.”
In my professional photography training course, I will not let you spend unnecessarily or be confused.
With years of professional experience and teaching photography to hundreds of students,
I will show you exactly what camera, what lens, is suitable for whom.
So don’t worry; start, learn photography with all your heart, see what works for you
And then buy a camera that is truly yours.
Is lighting also taught in the professional photography course?
In a professional photography course, not only is lighting taught…
But it is taught in a way that you will never be afraid of light again.
Lighting is that part of the photography course that many people avoid because it is complicated, scary, or full of expensive equipment.
But in my photography course, light becomes one of the easiest, most exciting, and most important skills you will acquire.
My guarantee to you is this:
After taking this course at my photography school, you will learn to adjust any light without error or repetition, even complex light, accurately in less than 5 seconds.
Even if several people are in front of your camera,
Even if the model’s position and position is strange,
Even if the light in the environment is low or high…
In this course, I teach photography techniques that are completely unique, tested, and the result of my own personal experience.
No need to buy a light meter
No need to spend hours of trial and error
No need to sign up for a separate class for light
Everything is taught in simple language, real examples, creative exercises, and real behind-the-scenes.
Can I earn money by taking a photography course?
Yes, it is absolutely possible.
But let me be clear:
In today’s world, photography is one of the rarest skills that can bring you both income and career freedom.
You just need to know which direction to go, and that’s exactly what I teach you in my professional photography courses.
Is photography profitable? Yes, in these genres and models:
1. Portraits and family (even a visit to the client’s home and office)
Suitable for starting with simple equipment.
Regular clients, flexible working hours, personalized and excellent income.
2. Child, newborn and birth photography
High income, high demand, ability to carry out projects in a studio or outdoors.
3. Advertising and product photography for online stores
If someone has an online store (even their own), learning product photography means cutting high costs + increasing sales
This skill is truly gold for those who have their own shop or work for others.
4. Industrial and fashion photography (for brands and companies)
High profits, business projects, cooperation with domestic and foreign brands.
Suitable for those who are looking for a permanent job or serious part-time.
5. Travel, nature and documentary photography
Suitable for selling works on international sites or creating YouTube and blog content.
You can even work as a freelancer with magazines and travel agencies.
6. Selling photos as NFT
If you are creative and have a different perspective, you can sell your photos on global NFT markets — with foreign currency and even dollar income.
7. Wedding and couple photography
Luxurious and happy market, always traveling and exploring, taking work orders from anywhere in the world, very high income whether as a project manager or as a visiting photographer
What is the difference between online and in-person photography training?
The online photography school at Dr. Saeed Arab Academy is designed to provide professional learning for everyone, without time and place restrictions.
In these courses, you have access to high-quality educational videos, step-by-step exercises, and direct instructor support, and you can progress at your own pace and schedule.
Unlike in-person training that requires physical presence, travel expenses, and a fixed schedule,
online photography training is flexible, affordable, and accessible anywhere in the world.
In addition, videos and handouts are always available and the student can return to them and review them repeatedly; something that is not possible in in-person photography training classes.
While in-person classes are limited to a specific time and place and have limited capacity, the online photography school provides the opportunity for continuous learning, interaction in educational forums, and constant access to updated content.
For this reason, many of today’s successful photographers have begun their learning through online photography courses and have reached the level of professional photography training.
