Seattle Workshops
I teach workshops in the Seattle area. I am also available to travel — let’s discuss the needs of your group, and arrange a workshop to meet your needs.
Students often ask me for my thoughts on whether they should learn Lightroom, Photoshop, or both (or neither). Click HERE to read my response.
2012 Seattle Workshops for the first half of 2012:
Lightroom Fundamentals
In this two day hands-on workshop, learn the fundamentals of Lightroom, concentrating on the Library and Develop modules where you manage, edit and enhance your images. With hands-on practice, learn how to organize, backup, manage, edit, fix and enhance your images, and the basics of working through large shoots efficiently with collections, presets, and synchronized settings. Learn how to move back and forth between Lightroom and Photoshop, and finally, to create jpeg and other copies of your images to share with others.

Achieving Your Creative Vision with Lightroom
In this intermediate course, learn how to identify your vision for a photograph and how you want your viewer to experience it, and then how to achieve your goals using Lightroom’s Develop tools. Learn what effects contrast, white balance, saturation and other enhancements have on your viewer’s experience, and how to guide the viewer’s eye successfully through the photograph with local adjustments. Work through many photos as a class, and receive in-class feedback on your photo development work. Prerequisite: Lightroom Fundamentals or equivalent. Participants must know how to import their photos, accomplish basic Develop tasks, and export copies of their photos. Limited to 8 students; laptop computer required with the latest version of Lightroom installed. Seattle (Broadway Market Building on Capitol Hill), 9:00 am – 5:30 pm. $350
