Questions
Before you decide.
Which tier should I start with?+
Start Free and upload 10 Photographs. When you want more feedback than that and the whole 20 module curriculum, go Plus at $9. When you stop wanting an upload limit at all and you want the Interactive Labs and the Photography History Hub, go Pro Guild at $14. Elite Masterclass at $25 is for Photographers who want to be taught, not only critiqued: six Micro Courses, 24 taught lessons, the complete Courage Lab, and three Signature Portfolio Audits a year.
What is the difference between monthly and yearly?+
Nothing changes about what you get. Monthly is billed every month and opens with a 7 day free trial, so you are not charged until day 8 and you can cancel inside the trial for free. Yearly is billed once and costs the same as ten months, so you keep two months. Plus is $9 monthly or $90 yearly, Pro Guild is $14 monthly or $140 yearly, Elite Masterclass is $25 monthly or $250 yearly.
What happens to my access if I cancel?+
You keep everything through the end of the period you already paid for, then you drop back to Free. Nothing is deleted. Your Photo Uploads, Vault, notes, and completed modules stay exactly where they are, and they come straight back if you resubscribe.
Do you keep my Photographs?+
They live in your private Photo Uploads archive so you can watch your work change over time. Nobody else can see them and you can delete any Photograph, or all of them, at any time.
