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.
