Living on the small island KelbyOne is like a window to the world, a great tool to connect with other photographers and be connected. I'm a food and travel photographer and writer, I use to travel a lot, work for magazines and books, well, sometimes I work in a team with authors and chefs but most of the time on my own. So every creative input is very welcome and it feels good to be part of the KelbyOne community. Thanks and congrats, and keep up the great work!
Signed up thinking I would have access to full information. Not true. Add another £10-£30 pound per class/per month. Subscription canceled. Significantly disappointed.
KelyOne is OK but nothing special. Many of the courses are dumbed down to the point of ridiculous. Paying to learn things that should be common sense. Most of these are focussed on family/baby photographers and are hosted by the same. Pure drivel. The forums are (as most are) populated by so called experts who have clearly had limited success in photographic endeavours. As is often the case, those who shout the loudest are often the ones with the least to offer. Simply run down portfolios for these people down and it's very apparent they should be listening more than pontificating. Lots of opinions from this crowd but per other commentators, often bully newer members and in some cases course instructors - it's quite pathetic. Would be nice to see some professional photographers moderating these resources - get rid of the 'volunteers'.
There are however some real gems within the KelbyOne ecosystem. Chris Knight, Lindsey Adler, Jeremy Cowart, Jay Maisel and others have contributed to some great content. Deep and meaningful learning here. Hopefully Kelby will start to favour quality over quantity.
I've always felt that pro and amateur alike benefit from listening to a pro speak/present. Amateurs offering some half-baked classes may appeal to amateurs who don't know any better but KelbyOne alienates the pro market when adding this type of course content.
Scott Kelby's PS and LR content is also quite good and has made me better at what I do.
KelbyOne is an educational membership community driven by a passion to provide incredible training for Photoshop, Lightroom & Photography made affordable!
Hi Alan, we appreciate your review and helpful feedback. We offer a wide variety of courses for amateurs all the way up to pros. Additionally, the resources that come with being a KelbyOne Pro member, the discounts, the Community, toolkits, etc. are useful to those who have managed to watch all 700+ courses. We encourage our pro members to submit their portfolio for a chance at a gallery.
