Selecting the right place for you to study photography can be tough. You have to find a place that's right for you.

I'm sure you've seen the online schools that offer photography classes but you'll be missing out on the interaction and experience of other students and instructors. Developing the keen eye for photography requires the help of others when you're just getting started.

I'm not saying online schools would not be a good choice, they give good info for the beginning photographer. All that being said, choosing the right school is difficult. Some are stand alone schools that require extensive application processes and others are within he large Universities.

What you first need to decide is what do you want to get out of the school and your classes. A good example would be a university that does not specialize in photography but they do offer the general basic level courses. The downside is you probably will not get a internship as you would by going to a photography school.

If you're only wanting to practice photography as a fun hobby and not a career, a few basic university classes will be just enough to help you improve your skills. No internship will be needed.

By deciding if want to practice photography for a career, selecting a specialized school will provide you with more in depth and specific knowledge. These are the better schools as they help you focus on specifics and the learning process is faster.

As mentioned before, you must decide what you want to get out of photography first: Career or hobby.

After this critical choice has been made, you can start the search and application process.

In your search you'll find studio schools that offer classes and some will require you to attend a university or college to get your basics as well as have internship experience under your belt.

If you start your search for the perfect school online you can easily find local and national schools, down loadable applications, the admissions process and class details.

The school websites list the detailed requirements that you must have before going through the admissions process.

The schools that do offer online courses will provide you with a good foundation and the basic classes are usually: lighting, composition and other basics.

Once you learn the basics, you'll than need to specialize to learn the art of how to take the shots of the subjects you're interested in.

For example, let's say you are interested in portrait photography you'll need to have a good grasp on light, balances and angles and methods for getting your subject to provide you with the reactions that you need for your subject.

The most current form of photography is to learn digital photography not to say you will not learn any new and useful techniques from the old manual cameras.

You school of choice will help you become better at mastering your photography skills without developing bad habits along the way.

Searching online will put you in touch with many schools to choice from. Be sure to understand the attending a school in person will help you develop you eye for the shot.
