The CCP is South Australia’s only dedicated photographic school
Located at Sunjive Studios in Hendon, Kaurna Land, South Australia, we offer the Certificate IV and Diploma of Photography and Digital Imaging, nine-week nationally accredited courses, short courses, workshops, masterclasses, private tuition, studio and facility hire. Flexible study options both online and in-person. We are camera geeks, tech geniuses, alchemists, light shapers and image makers. We are artists, history buffs, antique collectors, new media nerds and magic creators.
The Centre for Creative Photography was established in 1997 by our Director Gavin Blake. Recognising a need for education that could work around people’s busy lifestyles, Gavin created a school that allows students to choose their path, whether it be after work part-time, full-time or online study.
