A wonderful, stylish, cozy, upscale multifunctional studio. A photo studio with beautiful decorations. We went to a New Year's photo shoot with a girl. There is everything for professional shooting. A huge number of props for creative work. Excellent staff, all issues that arise are resolved instantly. We recommend it!

I want to share my experience of studying at the Blenda photography school. I would like to note that this course was a real discovery for me. The training program was designed very competently, and each lesson was a real immersion in the world of photography.
I would like to express my special gratitude to our teacher Andrey. His professionalism, patience and ability to convey information made the training not only useful, but also exciting. Andrey was always ready to help and answer any questions, whether it was shooting technique or photo processing. He inspired us with his work and shared valuable tips that I had already begun to put into practice.
I have learned a lot and now I can confidently use this knowledge in practice. Many thanks to the whole Blenda team and, of course, to Andrey for this unique experience!

Many thanks to the Blenda photography school, for the quality of knowledge, a good and responsive teacher who will always remain a friend regardless of the end of the course. He will always tell you and advise you. I came to school having no idea how to turn on even the camera. A huge plus is that the school provided not only knowledge, but also a camera for the entire period of study. Also, if a lesson is skipped, it can always be worked out with another group. Thank you so much for everything! See you soon🤗 on the new course ☺️

We were in the studio for a New Year's photo shoot, the Life hall.
We were very satisfied , the studio managed to recreate the New Year's atmosphere , the hall itself is spacious and bright, divided into several photo zones.
We shared pleasant impressions and left in a good mood. We recommend it to everyone

It's a great photo school.The best teacher is Denis Bondarev.
She presents information perfectly, she attended theoretical lessons with pleasure, Denis presents a lot of useful information with a touch of humor.
I think a lot depends on the teacher.I attended other courses, but he was the only one who gave me the love of photography.

I thank all those involved in the BLENDA photo studio for the opportunity to immerse themselves in the wonderful world of the photographer. During the course with Andrey Barilo, we sorted out all the subtleties of setting up the camera. Now the basic rules of filming are clear: Pulse; With wiring; Rules of diagonals and thirds ...
It is very important to back up the knowledge gained with PRACTICE. As part of the course, we had three valuable classes where we honed our skills as photographers. A nice bonus: You can add the received material to your portfolio!
It was an INTERESTING experience!
I thank the BLENDA photo studio for my start! 🥀

I've been here twice already. Once as a model, and another time as a photographer. There are air conditioners in the halls, it was vital in the hot July! Everything about the service is at a high level, and communication and a dressing room, there is a steamer, all amenities. Well, the replacement shoes are great! Each hall has from 2 to 4 different locations. We were allowed half an hour in one room and half an hour in another, as I was not busy at that time! The photos turned out to be very cool! I am happy with my cards and what I took!!! I recommend you with pleasure! I'll come back on my own!

Hello everybody! I recently took a course on the basics of photography at the Blenda photography school.
In a month, I learned camera settings and various techniques in photography.
It was a great practice! The models were photographed.
Andrey Barilo was the teacher in the group. A very talented photographer!
Classes were held in one go!
I am very glad that I went to study at Blenda. One of the best photo schools in Minsk!
In the future, I plan to take Commercial photography for another course.
Great photo school!📸❤️

I was at an event from the photo school for their anniversary (10 years). In one day, 15 different workshops were held (with water, dogs, pregnancy, pigeons, fashion, wedding, lovestory). I liked everything very much: experienced mentors beautifully arranged the picture and helped with the photography, the atmosphere was friendly, like a big family. For the price of the workshop, we got a lot of things: 15 different portfolio shoots, a buffet, prize draws, a cake, backstage photos and videos, useful acquaintances and experiences, etc.By the way, the studio has also opened a new COSMO hall with arches. Recommend. Also, now the makeup kit has become even more convenient and better. In general, I am pleasantly impressed

I want to share my impressions after the last course on the "Basics of Photography" - A wonderful photo school, I chose between others for a long time and did not miss. I was very pleased with the training, everything was thoroughly understood at each lesson, the teacher explained everything competently and clearly, after which there were no questions left.
Special thanks to the teacher Denis, in the future I will go to study with him again. Everything was great.

The perfect place
to earn PNEUMONIA!
Thanks for the ruined day for me and the photographer, thanks for the complete lack of customer service.
60 BYN!
what your manager thought we needed for an hour of RIGOR MORTIS IN YOUR STUDIO is "top–level customer service." I paid.
My voice dropped, and I started COUGHING after only 30 minutes of shooting in the people room. And we interrupted it.
I was shaking all over from the cold, my nose felt like it had been frozen, and my hands were numb.
THE FLOOR is GETTING COLD: so much so that the pleasant green color of the slippers will become your attribute – you simply will not take them off, because you will freeze.
A DRAFT from THE WINDOWS: although you will be convinced by the manager that they have recently been changed.
It's impossible to change clothes: IT'S FREEZING.
We were given a heater, which is at a distance of 5 cm from the palm of the hand at max. The wind was blowing slightly with warm air. The room is 85 sq.m. and high ceilings are NOT HEATED at all.
Dear studio, the obligations of the public offer have not been fulfilled: there are SIMPLY NO conditions for shooting.

Finally, I was going to write a review and tell the whole truth about the courses at the Blenda photography school. I recently completed a course on the Basics of photography and therefore I can tell you everything about the courses! There are pros and cons. I'll start with the pros ...., with thanks. Thanks to Denis, he is not just a teacher, he is a specialist in his field. The one who understands, the one who explains clearly, and the one with whom you are on the same wavelength. The classes were well organized, interesting, informative, and the homework was fascinating. I particularly liked the practice. The month of training flew by like one day and left a lot of positive impressions from communication, from the process of studying the creation of photography. The month of study turned out to be bright and very memorable, if you want to learn how to take pictures, see and capture moments, then you go to the Blenda photo school, they teach you not to take pictures here, they teach you how to create!)
There is only one minus, I want the courses not to end!!!

We were at a photo shoot in the cosmo hall, the impression was spoiled by fragments from the disc of the ball. They took it out on the leg and arm , taking into account the shooting with a small child. The hall itself is not very clean, the windows are dirty, it was also very stuffy and very hot. The child was freaking out and everyone got tired quickly.
There are no questions about the organization and staff, but it does not cost 60 rubles.
The photo shoot was on 09/21/24 at 14:00

I was filming at the Life Hall today.Here's what I want to say: according to the Instagram photos, the hall is good, but live is even better. The entire "filling" of the hall is in excellent condition (except for the straw chair-there is a hole there). Thanks to the atmosphere of the hall, I was not tense on the set, which is very important because I am an anxious person.
Unfortunately, there was no sunlight and therefore it was not possible to take a picture at the very top of the stairs.
The receptionist is very friendly (this is how you need to serve customers, note to others).
In the lobby of the studio, you can relax on the upholstered sofas. There are also cats in the studio who did not let me take a good picture of them.
And it's also good that the studio is moving forward on Instagram: I constantly see Blenda ads, which, of course, is very competent (not all studios launch a target).
Thank you for your time!

Visually beautiful studio (it was in the people hall), BUT the furniture is old, rickety, some even broken, to put it mildly, the hall is not clean, socks remained dirty after visiting. Given the requirements indicated on the site for visiting, it is unclear why it is so dirty, the cyclorama is dirty, the sofas, the bed too. There is no air conditioning, so it is very stuffy in the summer. I would not recommend it

I have completed a course on the Basics of photography and I can safely recommend it, it is quite deep and clearly structured, interesting homework that will definitely awaken your creative vein. Lectures in 2 hours fly by unnoticed, there is practice. The month of training turned out to be bright and very useful. On the diploma, absolutely the whole group showed decent results, although some people picked up a camera for the first time on the course (they can give it to you for training if they don't have their own) - all diverse and atmospheric work. Of course, the participants did well, they tried, but, undoubtedly, there is a great merit of the teacher - Denis Bondarev. He is able to explain clearly, always answers questions, dilutes lectures with jokes and tips from the practice of photographers (which is very valuable for a beginner). I was very satisfied with the training, I will go to the next advanced course!

Yesterday I completed a course in commercial photography with Denis Bondarev, one of the best teachers at the Blend photography school.
I would like to express my gratitude for the organization of practical classes at the photo school. And of course, special thanks to Denis for submitting the material, for analyzing homework and for a great time. Thank you, your photo school is really the best in Minsk.

It's a great studio, I've always liked it. But recently they did tinting on the windows, which was very upsetting. Now, even in the daytime, you have to use additional artificial light 😢

Hello to all readers! 03/17.24 I graduated from the Mobile Photography course, which lasted a little more than a month (these are five classes of 5 hours each, in the 6th lesson I defended my project. I can say that this is absolutely enough to immerse yourself in the learning process with your head)) we had a lot of interesting homework, and the teacher himself, Denis Bondarev, an interesting young man, explained everything in an accessible and understandable way. Homework analysis, communication with the group and the teacher was carried out by means of a cart and vk. It was a cool experience for me personally, I liked everything. Most likely, I will not become a professional photographer)), but now I definitely have an idea how to hold a phone, how to set it up before shooting and how to make a "candy" out of a photo. Therefore, for those who want to finally))) it's right to take pictures on the phone, I recommend the Blenda school"

I was filming in this photo studio. Initially, there were no issues with booking and rules in the photo studio. The administrators seemed very friendly and attentive, and were shown into the hall (VOGUE). The hall is very bright and clean. Specifically, there are live plants in this hall, which was very pleasant and added several photo cards. The administrators offered a speaker to connect their music and fully immerse themselves in the atmosphere. Time flew by unnoticed. I was very pleased with the studio, I will come back again.

I give my objective assessment, we were in the GQ hall:
1. If the furniture needs to be repaired, then in my opinion it needs to be repaired, and not to warn customers here carefully, and it is better not to sit down.
2. If a cat lives in the studio, then black underwear must be washed from the animal's fur, otherwise it becomes unpleasant to take photos.
3. The staff is friendly, this is an undoubted plus, thanks to them
4. The toilet on the floor of the building is terrible, keep this in mind, especially with children
5. There is water in the studio, a sufficient number of slippers, which is very pleasant.
6. The place to change clothes is conditional, we were lucky, there were no people, and it was comfortable

I rented the people hall at 9.00 for 1 hour. 25 minutes passed and the lights in the studio were turned off. When asked what we should do, the girl said - I don't know, it's not our problems, it's all the Horizon, the studio is not responsible for it. We waited and waited, 2 receptionist girls came and offered a photo session in another hall (black), at another time, or to postpone the photo session to an unknown time, since they do not know if they will turn on the light. The mood is spoiled, the photos are only in 1 image, and there should be 4 of them, plus a subject shooting. As a result, when it came time to pay, they said the price was 35 rubles. And I booked a studio for 1 hour for 60 rubles. Accordingly, why should I overpay? The day is ruined, there are no photos really, the money is spent, the boorish attitude of 2 administrators who did not even try to resolve the conflict, but on the contrary refer to the fact that problems with light are not their problems. And whose problems? Do I have to solve them? I needed 1 hour of time on this day. They refused to compensate for it somehow. Terrible staff. They do not know how to communicate with customers, but only rude. The fact that the lights turned off is not my problem, I spent money on a taxi, I spent my time - so what? To spoil the mood. Thank you- BLENDA Photo Studio

She studied at the commercial photography course. In general, it's not bad. Denis Bondarev taught the course. There are a lot of good reviews, I will agree with them and I will not list them again)
I saw the main disadvantage in a class on foreign wedding photography (led by another teacher). The lesson took place in the form of a conversation, where he showed his foreign weddings, including men of non-traditional orientation kissing on the beach. Proving and showing with pride that this is normal, free and youthful)))) Along the way, touching on the political situation in the country and topics that, in my opinion, are completely inappropriate and incorrect for discussion in training) Instead of knowledge, he left an unpleasant aftertaste )

I study at the Blenda photography school in Grodno with Oleg Zanimonsky. I used to look at the course skeptically, because I naively thought that everything could be learned on the Internet. But I was very wrong. Oleg, the teacher, is very attentive to each of our questions and helps us develop. It indicates errors very correctly. He shoots just awesome. In general, our classes are always super interesting) it's a pity that the course is coming to an end
