For most courses, we recommend having your own camera to get the most out of the learning experience. This allows you to become familiar with your specific equipment and continue practicing between sessions.

For beginners who don't yet own a camera, we have a limited number of DSLR and mirrorless cameras available for in-class use. If you're planning to purchase a camera, we suggest waiting until after the first session where our instructors can provide personalized recommendations based on your interests and budget.

Our teaching philosophy at Xluzaovorm is centered around these core principles:

1. Hands-on learning: We believe photography is best learned through practice. Our courses include extensive hands-on components and real-world assignments.
2. Small class sizes: We maintain a low student-to-instructor ratio (maximum 10 students per class) to ensure personalized attention.
3. Progressive skill development: Our curriculum builds skills systematically, allowing students to develop confidence alongside technical ability.
4. Creative exploration: While mastering technical skills is important, we equally value developing your unique creative vision.
5. Supportive community: We foster a collaborative environment where students can give and receive feedback in a constructive manner.

Our goal is not just to teach photography techniques, but to help you develop as a complete visual artist.
