Once you have some photos, it's time to learn a little bit about post-production photo editing.  A program like Adobe Photoshop can take a good photo and make it great! Even the best professional photographers use post production programs to make their photos "pop." At first, Photoshop can feel overwhelming with its abundance of tools and menus. It is a powerful design software program, but with some training, you will see it isn't just for professionals. With our assistance, you too will be able to create impressive, polished photography. Post production photo editing can be used to correct lighting, change colors and saturation, or to blend two photos together to get the best of both worlds (compositing).  In this workshop you will learn the basic tools, a few simple and efficient ways to make corrections to images, and some fun tricks. 

Some topics covered during this workshop:


  • Overview of the basic Photoshop tools
  • Understanding layers
  • Using masks
  • Color correction
  • Brightening photos that are underexposed
  • Correction of photos that are overexposed
  • Color changes
  • Adding effects
  • Simple cut-outs
  • Basic compositing
  • Filters
  • Resizing and cropping
  • Basic "touch up"
  • Other photo editing software programs available (Adobe Lightroom, GIMP)

Once you have the basics, the program won't seem as daunting.  You'll be ready to experiment and try other functions of this very versatile and comprehensive program. There are so many ways you can use Photoshop in addition to photographic work; it is used by graphic artists, filmmakers, video game designers, social media specialists, website designers, and other artists to create mock-ups, branding and logos, and to add special effects.  Adobe Photoshop is a program all photographers should learn.
