How are they good value for money ?, you may ask…
Answer.
Bruce uses only professional stylists, hair and make up artists and agency models for his courses.

A past students comment about the learning experience with Bruce Smith.
Dear Bruce:
I would like to thank you (and your excellent team) for a thoroughly enjoyable and invaluable learning experience over the last couple of days. It has exceeded all expectations.
I feel the workshop has improved my confidence and the shots I was producing at the end were noticeably better than when I started.
I will definitely be looking to attend some more of your workshops in the future.
