Hi

I would like to know if there is a good photography school (Fashion) in
Los Angeles for post graduate program?
Could someone suggest me?

Thank you
 
Art center College of Design? Don't know if much focus is on fashion, though.

Good luck,
Gary
 
Art Center is not directed towards fashion. It's always been a more "product" advertising focused. To really have a shot at fashion, you would be better off getting on as an assistant to a currently strong fashion photographer working for publications in NY or Paris markets. Do not expect a photo school to do anything more than make you better at the technical aspects of producing a final image....fashion is all interaction with the art director who is most likely sitting at a lap top looking at every exposure as you shoot.

The days of the photographers who have creative control over a fashion shoot are long gone.
 
Surely, postgraduate study in fashion photography can only be working as an assistant to a fashion photographer. What can a school teach you, unless it is taught by currently successful fashion photographers? Who are, of course, too busy to teach until they're no longer in fashion...

Seconded. No one is going to give you a photo job based on what school is on your C.V. better to train with someone and pick up the skills you need that way...
