We begin with an introductory overview of Lightroom, which describes the database components, catalog files, previews files, the metadata structure, and the steps for setting up application preferences specific to your personal workflow requirements.

Topics include digital camera setup, choosing appropriate file formats for image capture, efficiently downloading images from camera or hard drive, sorting, rating, editing, global tone and color correction, critical local corrections, input and output sharpening, presenting slideshows, and printing photographic images using Lightroom from start to finish. Our experts emphasizes using Lightroom to its fullest potential by generating time-saving keywords and metadata searches, presets, and templates.

 

Once images are orgainized and processed, participants learn how to produce slideshows and web galleries within Lightroom. We also study slide presentations and look at ways to integrate Photoshop or Elements for further image processing if desired. Our experts shares their recommendations and strategies for making clear decisions based on how Lightroom benefits each participant's personal approach and workflow needs.

 

Under their expert guidance, participants come to see why Lightroom puts deliberate focus on the word "speed".  Learning this program allows photographers to spend less time in front of their computers and more time behind their cameras.

 

The Lightroom tutorial exercises provided, supply a broad assortment of images to work on, so you can continue to revisit the exercises when you finish the workshop.

Jerry Courvoisier's book Lessons in DSLR Workflow with Lightroom and Photoshop is a brilliant companion to this workshop.
