- iPhone Photography School’s May Mega Sale runs April 30 to Monday, May 4 — the biggest price drop the platform has run this year.
- The All-Access Pass — every iPS course, including future releases — is 95% off for the duration of the sale.
- Capture It All, the flagship beginner-to-advanced iPhone course, drops to 86% off. Other individual courses sit at 84-86% off.
- After Monday, prices revert to standard rates. The next deep-discount window typically isn’t until late summer.
iPhone Photography School (iPS) just opened its May Mega Sale, with discounts of 84-86% off across the catalogue and 95% off the All-Access Pass — the steepest price drop iPS has run since last year’s Black Friday window. The sale started April 30 and closes Monday, May 4 at 11:59 PM Pacific Time. Five days, no coupon code needed: the discounted prices show automatically through PhotoWorkout’s affiliate links.
Two of PhotoWorkout’s top-recommended iPS picks are at the bottom of the price ladder right now: the flagship Capture It All course (the platform’s most popular) and the All-Access Pass (the 7-course, every-future-course bundle). If smartphone photography has been on the wishlist, this is the cheapest these have been in 2026.
What’s Actually on Sale
iPS is running its full catalog at sale price for the five-day window. Two prices matter most:
- All-Access Pass — 95% off. Lifetime access to every iPhone Photography School course currently in the catalogue, plus every new course iPS releases for the duration of the membership. This is the most aggressive discount iPS has ever run on the bundle.
- Capture It All — 86% off. The 7-module flagship covering composition, light, manual camera control, editing on-device, and Lightroom workflows for iPhone shooters. Most courses on the platform are derivatives of the lessons here.
- All other individual courses — 84-86% off. Includes Photo Shortcuts, Instagram Academy, iPhone Video Academy, the recently-released Video Editing Academy, and the niche tracks like iPhone Food Photography.
No coupon code is required. The discounted prices appear at checkout when buyers land on the iPS sale page.
The All-Access Pass at 95% Off — Why It’s the Standout Deal
For anyone who would buy more than two individual courses, the All-Access Pass is the obvious play. At 95% off, it works out cheaper than buying any single course at its full sticker price. The pass includes:
- Capture It All (the flagship)
- iPhone Photo Academy (beginner-focused)
- iPhone Editing Academy (mobile editing workflows)
- iPhone Landscape Mastery
- Urban iPhone Photography
- Digital Camera Mastery (the non-iPhone DSLR/mirrorless track)
- Drone Mastery
- Photo Shortcuts, Instagram Academy, iPhone Video Academy, Video Editing Academy, iPhone Food Photography
- Every future course iPS releases while the membership is active
PhotoWorkout’s All-Access Pass review covered the value math at full price; at 95% off the math becomes trivial. If even two of the included tracks sound interesting, the bundle pays for itself.
Capture It All at 86% Off — The Beginner Pick
For shooters who only want one course, Capture It All is the iPS flagship and the platform’s best-seller. The seven-module curriculum is structured to take a complete beginner through:
- iPhone-native composition (rule of thirds adapted to a phone screen, leading lines, framing)
- Light reading — recognising soft-light vs. harsh-light scenes and how to expose for each on iPhone
- Manual camera control via third-party apps and the iPhone Pro’s ProRAW workflow
- On-device editing in the iPhone Photos app, plus Lightroom Mobile fundamentals
- Composition critique sessions that show why certain shots work
It’s the course that PhotoWorkout’s 10 Best iPhone Photography Courses roundup ranked #1 overall — and at 86% off, it’s also currently the cheapest comprehensive iPhone photography course online.
How to Claim the Discount
There’s no coupon code, no email signup, no hoops. The sale prices auto-apply on the iPS checkout page when buyers click through to the campaign URL. The two links to use:
- All-Access Pass at 95% off: secure.iphonephotographyschool.com/affiliate/photoworkout-may26-aap
- Capture It All at 86% off: secure.iphonephotographyschool.com/affiliate/photoworkout-may26-cia
Both are PhotoWorkout affiliate links — the price is the same whether buyers click here or land on the iPS site directly, but the affiliate commission helps keep PhotoWorkout’s reviews independent and unsponsored.
Quick Gut-Check: Worth It?
Three quick filters based on PhotoWorkout’s prior coverage:
- Total beginner who shoots only on iPhone → Capture It All at 86% off. The 7-module structure is paced for first-time shooters and the on-device editing chapter alone justifies the price.
- Intermediate shooter who wants to specialise (food, video, Instagram, etc.) → All-Access Pass. Once you cross two niche tracks, the bundle wins on price every time.
- DSLR/mirrorless shooter curious about iPS → still the All-Access Pass. It includes Digital Camera Mastery, the non-iPhone track that pulls in DSLR/mirrorless fundamentals, plus the iPhone tracks for when the big body stays at home.

Frequently Asked Questions
When exactly does the May Mega Sale end?
The sale runs April 30 through Monday, May 4, 2026 — closing at 11:59 PM Pacific Time on the 4th. After that, prices revert to standard rates.
Is the All-Access Pass really 95% off?
Yes. Click the affiliate link and the discounted price displays at checkout. There’s no coupon code to apply manually.
Does the All-Access Pass include future iPS courses?
Yes — the AAP grants access to the current catalogue plus every new course iPS releases while the membership is active. iPS released two new tracks in 2026 (Video Editing Academy and an updated iPhone Food Photography); both are included.
What if I already bought a course on iPS?
Existing students can typically upgrade to the All-Access Pass and have prior course purchases credited. Check your iPS account dashboard or contact iPS support; the upgrade-credit policy isn’t changed by the sale.
Can I use these courses if I shoot on Android?
iPS courses are framed around iPhone, but the photography fundamentals (composition, light, exposure, editing concepts) translate to any phone. The iPhone-specific chapters — manual control via specific apps, the iPhone Photos app workflows — won’t map directly to Android.
When is the next iPS sale?
iPS typically runs deep-discount windows three times a year: a spring/early summer sale (this one), a back-to-school sale in late August/September, and Black Friday/Cyber Monday in late November. After May 4, the next 90%+ All-Access Pass discount likely won’t be until autumn.
