Cancelled – Lightroom Classic 101 – Basics and Beyond with Kathy Tarantola

We’re sorry but this class has been cancelled and will be rescheduled at a latter date

Lightroom Classic 101 – Basics and Beyond will give you a working knowledge of Lightroom, the leading editing and processing program for photo professionals and enthusiasts alike. We will cover both the Library and Develop modules. In the Library Module we will cover the best workflow practices of importing, organizing, renaming, using stars and color labels for rating, and keywording and metadata for search simplicity. You will learn how to work through large shoots efficiently with synchronized settings and presets, and how to use Collections for creating virtual folders of your images for major efficiency. Then, with the Develop Module, let the fun begin! Learn the quick and easy tips for editing your work, beginning with learning to evaluate any image and using the tools to make portfolio quality images. 

During Lightroom Classic 101 – Basics and Beyond  we will take several images through the entire editing workflow, reviewing tools as we go. Topics emphasized will be based on student needs. You will have time to practice with your own images, ask questions, and get feedback on your work.

No prior experience with Lightroom is necessary; however a working knowledge of computers is necessary for you to get the most from this workshop. A laptop computer loaded with a Lightroom CLASSIC CC is required. You can download a trial version at Adobe.com.

Kathy Tarantola always receives rave reviews from workshop participants, and Digital Silver Imaging is pleased to have her back in 2019. 

Please be aware – If you have the cloud based version, simply called Lightroom CC, it is a very different program and we won’t be covering it.
