INSIDE THE MODULES - aka WHAT DO YOU LEARN? Module 0: Getting set up in Lightroom This module is released a week before the course starts to give you a chance to fully familiarise yourself with the layout, structure and the best way of working in Lightroom Classic, including guidance of creating a smooth selection and culling process that helps you see and keep the best of your images, without getting bogged down with 100s near duplicates. Module 1: Getting Started In Lightroom - Global Edits In this module we introduce you to Lightroom's most powerful tools - the global edits. We help you understand how to tweak your images to achieve the effects you're after quickly - from adjusting over and under exposure, to correcting white balance in a few different ways, to having a play with my favourite Lightroom tool - the tone curve. Major Takeaways: At the end of the module you will have gained full control of lightroom key global tools and will be able to use them to correct any global - as in affecting the whole image - issues with your images. This includes perfecting your exposure, balancing your colour and white balance, sharpening and creating clarity and more.

This means you can now effortlessly select your subject from the photo to adjust them separately with just one click, you can pick only the sky, the subject's eyes or only colour green or any other element and treat them differently to the rest.  Major Takeaways: You will be able to use the full range of masks in lightroom and apply your edits exactly where they are needed, and nowhere else. This includes working with with the new AI powered masks which can detect a person's individual features and allow you to selectively edit them in a few simple steps, as well as those more manual tools, that allow you to literally paint with light and colour on your photographs. Module 3: Creative Editing in Lightroom  This is a brand new module in our course where we take all the tools introduced in Modules 1 and 2 and actually use them to achieve different effects on our photos. Wer show you how to be guided by light when editing, how to achieve a light and airy or a moody edit on your images, how to add light and how to convert to black and white, as well as how to edit skin in Lightroom! This module is all play!  Major Takeaways: You will learn how to create yoru own editing process - from knowing where to start and to understanding what elements of your photograph may need or benefit from adjusting and knowing how you can do so to achieve different outcomes. You will also learn how to edit your skin tones so they look delightful - no matter what your subject's complexion.  Module 4: After the edits We close the course with a module centered around all the things you might want to do after the edits - from preparation for print, creating photo books, but also sharing your images online and syncing them between different machines and adobe workplaces. PLUS there is a little Photoshop intro so you get a glimpse at how it's different and what it can do.    Major Takeaways: You will learn how to connect all of your Adobe ecosystem and sync and share your images across multiple devices. You will learn how to prepare your images for print so they look their very best and how to create photobooks. Next course starts 11 March 2024 Absolutely, without a doubt book Editing. I was very unsure at first. My interest in photography is to capture those memories so it felt like it was 'cheating' to edit. I can honestly say it's like magic.To finish off the pictures you love and just give you complete control over the exposure, colours to make them perfect, to rescue the disasters etc. I learnt so much in those few weeks and it made the biggest difference to my photos.  Kerry White Editing in LIGHTROOM Book your space now: COURSE STARTS : 11 March 2024 ( 4 weeks + 1 prep week)COURSE COST : £179 ( payment plans available ) What’s included: 4 weekly modules with step by step illustrated tutorials and videos + prep module weekly edit along class online class ( also recorded) - on Wednesday evenings feedback and advice on your edits private support group PDF workbook and downloadable videos Practice images to learn on Join our next group to really bring life to your images and make them look sleep, polished and full of light COURSE PREREQUISITES: Lightroom or Lightroom Classic CC software installed on your computer or tablet.
