The instructors, all graduates of the school, have shown and sold their work in over 250 art fairs and festivals on the local and national levels. Combined, they have won over 50 awards for their photography. You can click on our "Photography Gallery" to see examples of work.

Our students work on assignments that are geared to prepare them to successfully compete in the real world of professional photography. These assignments range from photographic essays to magazine covers, from product shots to portraits. Students work in black & white, doing their own film processing and printing. In the course of their assignments, they shoot with 35 mm SLR cameras, medium format cameras, view cameras, and digital cameras. We offer well-equipped portrait studios, a product/still life room, copy stand, macro stand, hand coloring, toning, black & white darkrooms, computer lab, and other facilities to provide our students with a broad range of learning opportunities.
At the Oklahoma School of Photography, we offer a modular learning system for the convenience of our students. A new students can begin every other Monday and complete the course 36 weeks later. Our student to instructor ratio is kept small so that we can give our students the attention they need.
