LIGHTROOM II
CONNECTICUT · AGES 13+
Take control of your photographs from import to final image.
Lightroom Classic is much more than an editing program. It’s a powerful system for organizing, developing and managing your photography.
In this hands-on workshop, we’ll go beyond basic adjustments and explore how to build an efficient workflow—from importing and organizing photographs to making precise edits and preparing finished images for print, web and sharing.
We’ll work with Lightroom’s masking tools to make targeted adjustments, explore ways to create a consistent look across multiple photographs and learn how to get more out of the Develop module without moving into Photoshop for every adjustment.
Practice images will be provided to test various techniques, but students are encouraged to bring their own photographs to work on.
Please be sure to review the requirements below.
