Adobe Lightroom for Photographers
Taught the Hands-On Way, Offered Worldwide in 2012
Participants Learn this Essential Photographic Digital Application “Learn by Doing ……… and Walk Away Knowing”
Adobe Lightroom for Photographers
is offered in cities throughout the United States, Australia, the United Kingdom, and Canada
Courvoisier says, “There are basically three different forms of education in this area. At one end is the 5 hr seminar at $99. At the other end is a week-long workshop on Lightroom for photographers, priced well over $1,000. My colleagues and I offer the best value: a serious 2-day hands-on workshop for just $295.00 with our early registration discount program. Our Lightroom training for digital photographers offers an experiential, personalized, interactive approach to learning. Participants bring their laptops with the current version of Adobe Lightroom installed and we dig in straight away with practical applications for the software and time-saving tips. We like to say, ‘they learn by doing and walk away knowing.’ This approach is essential to being able to make a smooth transition to digital photography workflow.”
These unique hands-on digital photography application workshops are led by award-winning Lightroom and Photography experts:

George’s Teaching Style:
My goal for the workshops is that students take away two major benefits. First, the students will learn an efficient and productive workflow that is easy to implement in their daily photography.
