Lightroom Post Processing Basics
July 19
Zoom!
$295/person
Learning how to post process your photographs is just as critical as composition and exposure. It can be difficult to know where to start and what to do. We will fix that in this group and one-on-one workshop!
This workshop is for photographers who have little to no experience in using Adobe Lightroom Classic to post process their photographs. We will break it down one step at a time starting with a memory card right out of your camera, to importing photographs, to adjusting the basics of exposure and color, to cropping and to exporting. The workshop consists of a three hour zoom session where you will be shown how to do these things with plenty of time for questions. Later you will have a hour one-on-one zoom session where you will post process several of your own pictures along with the instructor.
