“Advanced Post-Processing with Intention—A Masterclass with Lightroom Classic and Photoshop”
Chris Ogden, Chris Ogden Photography

Whether your love is shooting nature, manmade places and things, people, critters, flora, abstracts, or events, noted professional photographer Chris Ogden will guide you to making your photos better.

We’ll explore how to make your best shot even better through the top 25 most common issues that Chris sees when he judges print competitions and performs critiques. Happily, many can be easily fixed with tools such as Lightroom and Photoshop. We’ll apply these tools live in class to your work through a wonderfully interactive day!

NOTE: Chris will illustrate best practice concepts not only through his own great shots (and “mistakes”), but also via your images. As an attendee, you may submit up to three of your own images for possible use in critiques and processing “makeovers” to show how to move your images up whole “grade” levels. Upon registration, you’ll also have access to a survey to prioritize and vote on your top areas of interest for a customized class. Enjoy the best of both a seminar setting and personalized instruction!

Experience Level

Please note this is not an introductory course! To get the most from this day, you’ll want to have a solid base of familiarity and technical comfort level with Lightroom Classic beforehand. Although we’ll assume no prior Photoshop knowledge, we’ll quickly get deep.
