Adobe Lightroom Classic makes it easier than ever to organize, edit, print, or share images, all from one photo management and editing application. Take advantage of this powerful photography editing software and learn great techniques to efficiently edit photos and organize your growing photographic library.

In this workshop, we will cover Adobe Lightroom Classic from start to finish—including topics such as best practices of improving photographs and organizing photo collections, creative image processing, batch editing, and how to export and print your finished images—plus, the difference between Lightroom Classic v Lightroom. Instructor Nathan Lomas is an expert Lightroom user and has helped students learn Lightroom for many years. By the end of this course, you will have learned best practices for lightroom workflow, a number of effective tools to enhance photos, as well as a dedicated system for image organization.

Students will need RAW image files to work with during the class, but no prior experience in RAW processing is necessary.
