“I had zero knowledge in Photoshop when i started but now I am more confident using Photoshop as a tool to make photo editing/enhancements. I really enjoyed the course and could get to ask questions while taking the course. Thanks Digital Photo Academy for a wonderful course.”
“I was fortunate enough to take several courses from Asif in Sheridan’s photography program. As an adult student I was impressed by his ability to deal patiently with and relate to all students regardless of their ability and experience – especially in the daunting Lightroom / Photoshop course. He was always willing to take time to explain even the simplest concepts and did his best to make sure that everyone made progress and felt good about themselves. I really appreciated the personal interest he took in work that I did and was always willing to constructively assess my efforts to encourage me do more or better. He challenged us to translate theory into practice as key to the learning experience. I really learned a lot from him and wish he was available to offer more courses. I found him a great teacher with a wealth of experience and very easy to relate to.”
“Asif is not only an incredible photographer, but he is also a fantastic teacher. I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to learn about digital photography form Asif. Asif combines the perfect mix of humour, technical knowledge, and direct honest feedback to challenge and inspire his students. Asif’s passion for photography is contagious. You can’t help but be inspired by someone that loves what they do as much as Asif loves photography and art. Asif gives praise where it is due, but he is also not shy about being critical of his student’s work and providing honest feedback. His ability to deliver criticism in a constructive way is a big reason why Asif is such a great teacher. Asif has challenged me to push the boundaries of my photography and I’m having a tonne of fun doing it!”
“Asif is incredibly knowledgeable, with not only a passion for the art and science of photography, but also a passion for teaching. I have learned a tremendous amount from him about taking high-quality photographs that integrate technical skill with artistry. Asif is a patient, supportive, and encouraging mentor, offering insightful feedback to help students take their photographs to the next level. His classes are student-centred, experiential, and enlightening for photographers of all ranges of skill and experience. Whether you are a beginner or a practiced photographer, Asif will help ignite a love and excitement for the art of photography, and will support you whole-heartedly on your journey.”
“I was lucky to attend a couple of courses at Sheridan College with Asif Raza, not only that he has a good knowledge and command of photography, lighting, composition and visual arts but also he has an amazing talent of being able to relay the message to multiple types of personalities, mentalities and ages and helping us to be able to understand it and apply it, which is – in my opinion – the greatest talent of an adult educator.
Asif also makes the class fun specially when I was attending the course after a long day at work towards the end of the week.
I have to say that the couple of courses I attended with Asif have better shaped my photography prospective and knowledge. My friends and clients have noticed the difference as well.
I highly recommend Asif as a photographer and an educator to any individual who has a will to learn new aspect in visual arts. ”

“I have had the pleasure of taking numerous classes with Asif and even started seeking out classes that he specifically taught. He is a great, personable and patient man, making him a wonderful teacher and mentor. I learned more from my classes with Asif than I could have ever hoped. If you have the opportunity to take classes or workshops with Asif, I will highly recommend that you do. It will be the best money that you ever spend and you will see instant results in your photography and design work.

“I was very fortunate that Asif Raza was my instructor for many of the courses I took in the Digital Photography certificate program at Sheridan College. With over 30 years’ experience as a professional photographer, I learned so much from Asif’s expert guidance and encouragement. Always excited to share his knowledge whether it was portraiture, lighting and flash photography, black and white photography or navigating photoshop and lightroom. Thank you Asif! ”
“I have taken several advanced photography courses taught by Asif at George Brown College and can, without any reservation, recommend Asif and the courses to anyone is serious about photography. Hi courses cover a wide range of technical elements and he covers them very well, going to great lengths to ensure the students fully understand. He moves quickly, but is always, and without recrimination, prepared to be pulled back to basics for those of us who just did not “get it” on the first go-around. His classes are entertaining, full of energy and wide open to discussion and challenge, which he heartily encourages.
What I believe makes Asif stand out, is his personal interest in the learner’s success. I believe Asif gets his “teaching high” when a student finally “gets it”. It is a great site to see, it is a great class to be part of, and when you are the student, you can feel the sun shine.
