Learn the Basics of how to manage your digital files, edit your photos, and create unique pieces of art in this fun 3 hour basic Lightroom and PhotoShop course.

You have learned how to use your camera and have tons of images.  What do you do with all those digital photographs now??

In this Beginners Lightroom and PhotoShop Class

We will start in Lightroom to learn how to quickly and easily process your images from a RAW or JPEG state. Lightroom is the new age darkroom for digital photographers and if you want to bring in many images to adjust, this is the quickest method of editing.

Next learn the basics of using PhotoShop to edit your photographs. We will  cover the basics of file management and organization. Learn how to create folders to easily find all of your favorite digital files. We will work in PhotoShop to understand the correct way to set up this program. We will cover the features, and what the basic tools of photoshop is for the photographer. You will learn how to use the cropping tool, how to color balance your images and how to make advanced image adjustments for highlights, shadows and contrast. Learn how to sharpen images and other easy features of Photoshop to get you started using this program to edit your photographs and get them ready for printing.

 Patrice will go over PhotoShop Basics such as:
  •  Importing Your Files from a Card Reader
  • Creating Unique Folders and Saving on an External Hard Drive
  • Basic Adjustments such as Exposure, Cropping, Vignetting in Lightroom (optional)
  • Exporting to Photoshop and saving images as a .jpeg
  • Learning Photoshop workspace and toolbars
  • Opening Up Files in Photoshop
  • Crop, Exposure Adjustments, Sharpening
  • Creating Black and White and Sepia tones, or bringing back color from a black and white.
  • Removing an Item from an Image
  • Basic Retouching Tips

What to bring:

  • Your laptop loaded with Photoshop. If you are paying the monthly subscription fee for Photoshop *$10 a month, then Lightroom is included in that bundle. We can talk Lightroom if that is something the class is interested in. Lightroom is how I first edit all RAW files from the camera. I will reach out to all class attendees prior to the class to see if we will include Lightroom or not.
  • Patrice will provide the images for all students to work on together from processing the files to editing them as jpegs in Photoshop.  You will be encourage to bring in some files that we will work on together towards the end of class.

If you have a different version of Photo Shop, or another photo editing software, I welcome you to join this class. Though some of the features of Photoshop may not be the same, you will be able to follow along to learn the basic tools of editing photographs.

This will be a hands on class and we will be working individually and together to learn how to take the images from a RAW state and the workflow designed to edit, and prepare the file to ultimately present to a client, or print. This class size is limited to 7 attendees, so there is plenty of opportunity for one on one assistance.

We require a 24 hour notice to reschedule your registration at no charge.
