Photography has never had a larger in uence in our daily lives — or a more profound impact on the way we understand the world. Now more than ever, it’s crucial for photographers to understand and master the skills behind creating compelling images. The New York Film Academy transforms a student’s love of photography into the technique and profound hands-on experience necessary to thrive in the professional landscape. Our programs uniquely focus on the practical elements
of photography, so our students master the essential theory, technical skills, and business practices of the industry, whether they attend our campuses in New York City and Los Angeles.
At the New York Film Academy, we prepare students
to apply what they learn in their coursework to the real world. From short-term workshops to advanced degree programs, from in-class studio shoots to international photography expeditions, we take our students on a journey that offers them the opportunity to build a strong foundation in the theory, aesthetics, history,
and practice of photography. Each student will create original work, as they explore what it means to construct visual stories from their own unique perspective.
Our photography students receive an extraordinary educational experience designed to transform passion into professional skill.
