KNOWLEDGE BREEDS SUCCESS
Have you ever stopped to think that "what you know" is the only thing you actually own in life? You can't leave home without it.
There's an 80/20 rule that states, "20% of what you know can lead to 80% of your success."
Think about that for a second. How does knowing lead to success? Is it by preventing yourself from making bad decisions? Is it by knowing the right choices to make? Or is it a mix of both?
Another saying says, "The more you learn, the more you earn," which is one of the foundational beliefs here at PRO EDU.
We believe and embrace the growth mindset within creativity. We believe that we are all lifelong students, and mastery is in truly knowing that you will never master a craft like photography.
You should never stop learning.
We believe in teaching the failure just as much as we believe in teaching what led to success.
Gear Acquisition Syndrome (G.A.S) is a real thing in photography. Camera companies spend millions trying to convince you that more megapixels is THEanswer. It's never-ending.
It's FOMO nonstop. It's what many blog constantly publish. CLICK BAIT B.S.
We are here to tell you that at this point, gear probably doesn't matter—intention matters.
The story matters; it always has. It always will.
Have you ever gotten a new camera or strobe and realized that your WORK LOOKS THE EXACT SAME? Same work, but now you have to pay off the thousands of dollars in debt and extra overhead you took on.
Sure, sometimes new gear can help you get better. It absolutely can.
BUT........ consider for one second what would you rather have? A mentorship with your favorite photographer where you can learn from their mistakes and see how they work?
OR....... Would you rather have a new bag full of gear without any instructions on WHY to use it?
Notice we said WHY and not HOW.
At PRO EDU, we believe in learning WHY first. When you do, the HOW because easier.

FAVORITE TUTORIAL:My favorite PRO EDU tutorial is retouch workflow with Sef McCullough. Because of FS2.0, learning to isolate and working with a proper workflow my images gained so much quality! Together with his coloring tutorial my photography is next level without the need of somebody else to retouch my pictures.
ABOUT: Nick Franken (‘82) works and lives in the Netherlands. Father of 2 and a passion for photography. Working as a professional for over 11 years now and it never felt like working. It’s a lifestyle, and it take up 24 hours a day! I’m inspired by live, my clients, music and all the people around me. Live your live like you did as a kid, enjoy it together with the people I love.

FAVORITE TUTORIAL:The Science Of Color With Kate Woodman.
ABOUT: Barbara MacFerrin is an award winning fine art portrait photographer based in Boulder, Colorado. Inspired by old master paintings of the Baroque period, she can capture unique beauty to display in timeless, fine art portraits. Her intention is to capture her subjects' true essence and to create not just photographs, but works of art.

Favorite PRO EDU Tutorial: I would say, Introduction To Dramatic Portraiture With Chris Knight, is the defining tutorial that really made me fall in love with going ahead to choose Pro Edu. His understanding of lighting on subjects is really what made me go ‘Wow! this is how you tell stories with light!’ and it really made me into the photographer I am today.
ABOUT: Shian Bang is a portrait photographer based in Singapore. He specializes more in fine art, cinematic and narrative portraits,
having been largely influenced by the films he’s watched and grew up with. He started out as a photographer in the SAF, during his National Service, before embarking to be a travel photographer in Thailand, traveling around the region, covering various subjects in the country.
Favorite PRO EDU Tutorial: Im having quite many tutorials from PRO EDU, it’s been a huge source of knowledge for me since the beginning of my career as photographer. All of them are very valuable. Perhaps the one I like the most is Kate Woodman’s Narrative Photography and The Science of Color. I think storytelling is more complex, very creative and inspirational indeed. Kate is a master in this field and learning from her is a great opportunity to level up. In The Science of Color she teaches importance of the right color choice, the affect is has on audience, emotional connection to it and how how to skillfully use it in your work. In Narrative Photography Kate shares her strategies in conceptualizing ideas, walks you through 6 different setups and breaks down her workflow from the being till the end. To me, two of these tutorials are complimentary and I’d recommend to watch them both. These have inspired me to create a new body of work.
ABOUT: I’m a portrait, fine art and maternity photographer based in Norway. Originally from Moldova, I grew up in a family where every one was expressing himself in some form of art or sports professionally. So it was only natural that I take same path. My passion for arts and inner need to express my emotional views on the world visually led me to choose photography as my medium.
"Only just dipped into the wealth of knowledge available so far having just joined recently. Videos are brilliantly filmed and easy to follow. As a professional its really important to keep learning and experimenting with different techniques and perhaps looking at something you know from a different viewpoint. In the short time I have used the platform I have already used information from here to use in the real world. I look forward to digging deeper and discovering new content
