We offer digital workflow training and tuition for photographers at all levels. We get you working confidently and quickly. Keep reading to learn more about what we offer.

1. Organise your work

We show you how to make sure your images end up in the right place, consistently. Find the right photographs quickly. Our recommended tool is Adobe’s Lightroom 4, which offers a compelling mix of speed, quality and features. Our Lightroom training covers import, file management, backup strategy, keywording, rating your images quickly, getting work out quickly… in short: organising your photo workflow.

2. Post-processing

Get everything looking its best. Learn how and when to use white balance, exposure correction, dodging and burning, fill light, recovery and sharpening controls. What’s the difference between brightness and exposure? Why is the histogram so useful, particularly when making prints? Learn about the delicate balance between image noise, detail and sharpening and how to get it right.

Lightroom is also about getting many images processed quickly: we show you how.

3. Print and web

We help photographers make exhibition-quality prints, provide advice on new printer purchases and help you master colour management. We make custom print profiles and make sure you’re getting best print output. We also get your images looking good online in all browsers!

There are other things — getting your work looking great on your iPad, iPhone and Android devices, for example — but the principles of organisation and post-processing are the most important. Once you’ve understood those, your confidence and productivity will improve dramatically. Not only that, but you’ll enjoy the whole process so much more.
