Learn Lightroom CC Classic Weekend Workshop August 17-18, 2019
This is a two-day workshop with hands on classroom instruction. You will go through the entire process and develop a digital workflow on your computer with your images. We will learn to organize our entire photo library using the powerful database tools of Lightroom from import all the way through to delivering finished photos. We will learn to use the develop module to process our images to achieve the best image possible.
Learn what the difference is between Lightroom CC and Lightroom CC Classic and which is best for you. We will learn the new features in Lightroom
Learn Complete Digital Workflow
Using Adobe Lightroom
- Learning to apply keywords and setting up a proper keyword hierarchy will save countless hours locating photos in the future and for online searches when you publish to the web. You will learn to use collections, smart collections and additional metadata to make organizing your entire library fast and efficient.
- You will learn to achieve fantastic tone and color using simple sliders and using the new greatly improved sharpening and noise reduction, you will think you have a new camera. The new lens profiles and their manual controls allow for correcting lens distortions or creating dramatic effects. Dodging and burning are simple tasks in lightroom using the adjustment brush. All of this in a totally nondestructive work environment designed to speed you through the process.
- Even with all the power of lightroom there will still be times when you will need the full power of Photoshop, and you will learn how to make the two work together for a seamless workflow.
- After developing your images, they will be ready for export, and you will learn how easy it is to get the file type and size you need.
- Participants will need a laptop computer with current version of Lightroom CC Classic installed and some images (Adobe offers a free 30-day trial).
This workshop is normally $399 and will be offered to PSNWA members for $200
What to bring:
- laptop computer with Adobe Lightroom installed (there is a free trial you can use from Adobe)
- Notebook / pen / pencil to take notes
We will take a lunch break.

Learn to improve you landscape photos during this class with Greg Disch.
Landscape photography shows spaces within the world, sometimes vast and unending, but other times microscopic. Landscape photographs typically capture the presence of nature but can also focus on man-made features or disturbances of landscapes. As with most forms of art, the definition of a landscape photograph is broad, and may include urban settings, industrial areas, and nature photography.
Here is some info for the landscape class, I will get the others in the next day or so.
There are many techniques used to capture a great landscape photo, during this class we will learn the secrets of the pros.
· Learn to get the best possible focus using techniques of “hyperfocal distance” and live view focusing.
· Learn how to get the most out of the sky in your photos.
· Learn to create sun starbursts in your photos.
· Learn to research a location.
· Learn to use composition to create a stronger image.
· Learn to create panoramas.
· Learn to create natural HDR images.
· Learn to plan a successful photo shoot.
· Learn to photograph the night sky.
Class will run from 9 am to about 5 pm with a break for lunch.
Cost of $75 per person.
