Norsk Fotofagskole

Norsk Fotofagskole is a photography school in Trondheim, Norway. Its two-year Fotografi og Film programme combines photography and film across genres such as art, fashion, portrait, commercial and editorial work. Its one-year Foto Prosjektutvikling Masterclass is a project-based programme in which students develop a larger body of work, with the photobook as a central format. The school also runs Sample NSP Books, its own publisher of photography and art books.

The programmes target prospective photographers and, in the Masterclass, professional photographers and artists with solid experience in photography or film. Both are full-time and supported by Lånekassen. From autumn 2025, new students starting the first year of Fotografi og Film or Foto Prosjektutvikling study without a semester fee, which the school says is supported by Trøndelag Fylkeskommune.

The school was founded in 2001 and is based in Trondheim. Its Masterclass 2025/2026 photobook projects were shown at the Oslo Negativ festival in October. The next admissions round opens on 1 February 2027.
