Efficiently helpful tips and ideas.

I've owned an iPhone Pro Max for a while but have wondered how to get the best use of the camera. The courses I've taken here have covered much of what I didn't know. They've been specific and detailed with examples. I especially appreciate Scott's showing step-by-step how to use the settings.

Treasure trove of information

The online courses give me a lot of information and tips that otherwise I would not have access to.
I expect to improve my photography game and have a simpler, more direct path to good results, becoming more sure about the choices I am making in the process.

Top notch courses for specialized photography needs

really impressed with the professional quality of courses, especially in sports, automotive and interior photography. The instructors clearly know their stuff and share real-world techniques. Love how they break down complex lighting setups and share practical workflow tips. The production quality is excellent and the teaching style is engaging and easy to follow. If you're serious about improving your photography in these specialized fields, these courses are definitely worth the investment.

Good and Bad

Some of your courses are very good and some are not good, many are relevant to me. Also many of your courses are really old and do not teach the current software.

Scott Kelby should not drink before recording classes. I noticed that he was tipsy long before he made the comment as an aside. He also goes to great length to tell you how wonderful the new features are. We know of we would not be watching these videos.

The transcripts are not useful in the format you now have. Please have someone manually edit the transcript into paragraphs and break them up so the transcript of each class is listed below the class. The NAPP live sessions used to provide notes, these were great and much better than the transcripts.

I really liked the Mastering Selections class by Glen Dewis but it was hard to follow because of how tiny the tool icons appear on screen.A larger pointer and more specific instructions (or notes) would be helpful. I had to watch some sections 4 times, occasionally I could not find the tool or setting he was speaking of.

Kelby One is the best site for…

Kelby One is the best site for studying photography from instructors who know what they're doing. I'm a beginner, so all of the videos have been helpful for me. I especially enjoy the videos on Lightroom and Photoshop, but there is so much more. I believe it's a small investment to belong to Kelby One, and it's worth every dime.

Great Learning Tool

First off. I am a month short of 81. I am a real estate photographer and have been for 15 years. Every time I take a trip, I bring a lot of my heavy case with equipment in my carry on. I really pay the price when I get home with all the added weight.
I saw the webinar about using my cell phone instead of lugging all that gear. I believed the only way to get great photos was to use my Sony mirrorless camera. I only used my iPhone 14 Pro Max for texts and a phone and to get directions to photo shoots.
Right after I watched the webinar, I signed up for the special offered. I now have your app on my TV’s and laptop. My wife and I have so far watched 4 videos all the way from beginning and to the end. What a fantastic resource you provide. The video series moves along at a comfortable pace, have great quality and the information is so beneficial.

The only down side to the videos; my wife, a landscape photographer, wants to upgrade her iPhone 14 plus to the iPhone 16 pro model. How could you do this to me?
Thank you for the fabulous videos.

Scott always seems to make it fun

Scott always seems to make it fun, membership is pricey and I am just getting into what he offers, so far it is enjoyable to watch and is a learning experience, always wanted to try his course and am finally able to afford it, hoping to gain a lot of knowledge

The videos are great

The videos are great! So far I have watched over 20, and three or four different instructors. I have advanced so far in my knowledge of not only taking good shots by proper camera setup, but now know how to post process the photos! I never thought possible what can be done with Lightroom.
