Interview with Professional Photographer Francis Keating from Brisbane Photography Courses as featured on 4BC Radio

Director of photography : Francis Keating

The Lastest Reviews

Highly recommend(Smartphone Photography Course)

I did a session with Emily from Brisbane Photography and absolutely loved it. She made mobile photography feel creative and accessible, showing me how to frame shots, play with light, and capture everyday moments with intention. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to level up their phone photography!

Beginners Photography Course

Finally took my camera out of auto mode and what a difference! Francis has lots of patience and a well paced class followed by practical application of the camera functions learned. If you think you'll be overwhelmed, don't worry. Francis perfectly paces the class and consolidates the lesson by spending just the right time on each function taught and makes sure everyone is up to speed before moving on.

One on One Photography Course

Francis is a great teacher, I have had countless classes and private 1:1's with him already. I've had a 3 hour 1:1, then the beginners class, and then the portraits class. It's all been so good. I also like the 1:1 classes to work specifically with my camera and then also with meeting other people as well. I have even exchanged pictures with one of the members from the landscape course which was fun. Gets you out and away from the computer. You do not need to have super high tech camera or expensive at all which is why it was great to learn from Francis. Very patient!!!!

Beginners Photography Course

Francis is a great teacher and my partner and I had such a blast! It was nice finally learning about the DSLRs that sat in our cupboard collecting dust. If that's you, the beginner course is absolutely perfect. Francis was very patient and knowledgeable, big thanks to him!

Beginners Photography Course

I had a great time doing the Beginners Photography Course with Francis. He provided me with an easy to understand explanation and notes on how to operate a camera in different environments. I can't wait to go outside and use this knowledge to take some lovely nature photos!

Great course for all ages!!!

Great course for all ages!!! (I am 60). Francis did a great job explaining things clearly and concise. I feel a lot more confident in being able to make those lasting memories even better with photos I can now be proud of. (even selfies...) Thanks, Emily.

Fantastic Class(Day and Night Photography Course)

Absolutely loved the course and took a lot from it! Thank you so much!

This is a must do for anyone with a camera(Beginners Photography Course)

This course was amazing. It exceeded every expectation I had. I learnt so much in the beginner course. I can't wait to book my next course.

Francis is a fantastic(Beginners Photography Course)

Absolutely loved the course and took a lot from it! Thank you so much!

Francis is a fantastic, knowledgeable and extremely patient teacher. Highly recommended!
Amazing course!(Beginners Photography Course)

Three of us from the one work team did this course today and it was amazing! Francis is highly skilled but really put beginners photography into simple terms. We felt comfortable and now feel more confident with our photo skills. Great location. Would highly recommended

Highly Recommend(Day and Night Photography Course)

Awesome course. Would highly recommend Francis is a great teacher. Will be doing more of these courses soon

Fantastic Class(Beginners Photography Course)

Completed the beginners photography course with Francis and it was fantastic! He was very knowledgeable and a great teacher. The course is perfect if you want to learn how to use your camera and practice with expert guidance! Would definitely recommend and can't wait to do another course.

Fantastic, comprehensive beginner's photography session(Beginners Photography Course)

Francis ran a fantastic, comprehensive beginner's photography session. It was relaxed but we got through quite a bit of content. He explained everything very patiently and was friendly and a pleasure to deal with. Looking forward to my next session.

A perfect photography starter course!(Beginners Photography Course)

I thoroughly enjoyed this course. Francis was so patient and thorough and I learnt so much. He is highly knowledgeable and really knows his stuff. Highly recommend!

Night photography success course!(Night Photography Course)

I did the day and night photography workshops. Francis was very patient and helpful. The class was not too big and we were lucky enough to just have 2 for the night portion. I particularly enjoyed the night photography and learnt lots of methods to use to get some great results. I had a few problems with my camera (purchased 2nd hand) and Francis went over and above to try and sort them out for me. I definitely recommend any photography enthusiasts to invest a very small amount to learn more about your camera and what it can do.

A very good way to start taking pics(Beginners Photography Course)

The course is well done, he is very patient,happy to answer any question.Francis knows his cameras well ,takes you around to show you how to use your camera in the field.As a total L plater i was very happy with the course.

Beginners Photography Course

Thanks again for a great morning. I felt privileged to have access to your wealth of knowledge and experience.

Excellent course !

Excellent course! Well structured and clear communication in a relaxed environment. I highly recommend this course - you truly go from amateur to pro in the space of a few hours!
