Monthly Critique Sessions
We are often shaken by the phrase, “…you have room for improvement…”. We try so hard to strive for perfection that the term “room for improvement” makes us want to cry.
The reality of the situation is that room for improvement means new growth, the opportunity to try new things, and the journey of continuously improving upon your trade. If someone said, “It’s perfect” about everything you did, there would be no need or reason to grow. Eventually, the idea of perfection would be diluted.
Blake’s Fine Art classroom style critique sessions on f.64 Elite are all about continuous improvement. We want you to grow as an artist/photographer, then these critique sessions are designed for you.

f.64 Elite Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between f.64 Elite and f.64 Academy?
The Short Answer: f.64 Elite is premium photo education, and f.64 Academy is my free blog.
The Long Answer: f.64 Academy focuses on community, relationships, photo education and constructive criticism for continuous improvement on our photographic journey. On f.64 Academy, you will find quick tips here and there that are designed to pique your interest in Photoshop and help with various little things.
On f.64 Elite, there are full-length courses that show you how to do something in depth. Rather than taking a look at a quick tip, these courses go into detail about various topics in photography. These can be workflow courses, creative effect courses, or software-specific courses.
Is the content on f.64 Elite new or will this be a repeat of what I have already seen from you?
All of the content on f.64 Elite is fresh and new every month. I will not recycle old content and call that a course. New critique sessions, challenges, and Live Events will be put up monthly.
The course catalog is unique and stocked with great content!
Do I have to pay a yearly fee at 19.99 per month?
Nope. You pay monthly and can come and go as you please. There are no yearly contracts or messy hidden fees. You pay monthly and can access the set when it is most convenient for you.
Can't I just learn all this on YouTube?
Nope! Or at least I should say, good luck trying to find content like this that holds nothing back and is uniquely focused on your growth.
Most YouTube content shows a magic trick here and there in Photoshop. F.64 Elite was designed to focus on the WHY, not just the how and what. We focus on why you do what you do so you know how and what to do when the time comes.
Furthermore, my YouTube channel has about 300 videos on it. f.64 Elite hosts nearly 1,000 videos. There’s a lot more to it than one would think 🙂
