Creative Photoshop: Beginning

 

This three-day class will be packed with information, so get ready! Each class will be filled with lecture and help with individual questions. Photoshop can be intimidation, even to the experienced user. My goal is to help you learn the fundamental Photoshop concepts in a clear, easily understood manner. With this newfound knowledge you will feel comfortable editing and preparing your photos to print. You will also be able to start stretching yourself into some of the creative processes Photoshop has to offer.

 Here are a few things we will cover in this exciting new adventure into Photoshop! 

 - Basic workflow/organization tips

- Photo retouching and editing

- Workspace and Tools in Photoshop

- Working with selections, layers and masks

- Camera RAW and Photoshop

- Using Photoshop in a new and creative way with unique/antique filters and effects

- Creating text and experimenting with fonts

- Color Enhancement

- Cropping: How to go from an average image to an amazing image using cropping

 

Although we have a syllabus outline for this class, each participant will have the opportunity to fill out a questionnaire that will also help guide my teaching to fulfill the interests of each individual in the class.

You & Your Camera

 

This is a 5-hour class that is packed with camera fun. We will be getting you and your camera off “auto mode” and launching you full swing into getting what you want out of your shots. We will be covering the basics of shutter speed, aperture, composition and lighting, as well as touching on how best to print your photographs. There is an OPTIONAL 30-45 min at the end of this class for those who would like to watch me do a short tutorial on how I get my workflow started in Photoshop.

 Getting the most out of your every day photos is important as you try and capture life going on around you. This class will not only teach you about your camera, but it will teach you how to get the very most out of every shot in any location. Bring your camera, the owner’s manual for your camera, and be ready to shoot!
