Description

Just as in the days of the wet darkroom, the storytelling process doesn’t stop in the camera, but only when the image is incarnated into something that can be viewed and shared in all its intended glory. And now more than ever the capability to create imagery, to create art, that would never be possible in camera alone, is limitless. And with the latest version of Adobe Photoshop Lightroom as well as in Photoshop itself, there is the ability to do this digital alchemy instantly, effortlessly and nondestructively, with an incredible amount of creative flexibility.
 
This indepth hands-on workshop will cover the often overlooked or misunderstood tools and techniques for quickly and easily performing global optimizing, targeted enhancing and even basic retouching on your photography - without the need for Photoshop (well, at least 90% of the time) - and then automatically share these enhancements between multiple images with Lightroom Presets, Photoshop Actions and Smart Filter Recipes that we will create in class. Jack will also provide to attendees over 1000 (that’s right, 1000) of his best Lightroom and Photoshop Presets and Actions as part of the workshop.
