Sydney Photographic Workshops Sydney Learn to Fly

Enrol in Sydney's most thorough Adobe Lightroom course designed by pro photographers!

This photography course is run on various week nights for 4 weeks from 6:30pm to 9:30pm

We take you on a comprehensive journey through Adobe Lightroom, from capture to output, whilst exploring the practical and creative functionality of the industry standard photo editing software. If you want to make the most of your shots and manipulate them into something amazing, this Adobe Lightroom course covers all the bases.

Our Lightroom Series are bigger than just simply editing your images. Through a series of practical 'hands on' exercises, assignments, presentations and informal discussions, we cover a broad range of topics to streamline your process and make your editing workflow easier. We will provide the fundamental skills to any photographer to get the most out of their digital images.

Cut your editing time in half whilst producing pro quality images from your captures!

You will learn how to download and import your images into the Adobe Lightroom software then organise and manage a number of photo collections.  This will make searching individual images from several thousand easy and quick through keyword allocation. 

We move on to show you how to prepare and export your images for either online or printed presentation as you are guided through a professionally developed workflow. Utilising a range of image file formats we will introduce you to the world of the digital negative (these will be supplied). We will then explore the editing and creative capabilities of Lightroom, organising, working on and exporting your now magnificent images. We will also examine the various methods to output your images.  

You will be given weekly assignments culminating in a hands on printing session of your favourite image in class to take home. At the conclusion of this workshop you’ll understand enough about Camera RAW and Adobe Lightroom to take your images to the next level.
