Start Your Photo Editing Journey
The Getting Started with Lightroom Classic Workshop introduces you to Lightroom’s fundamental features and how to get the most out of them. Lightroom will enable you to effortlessly keep track of all your images (regardless of where you've saved them on all your hard drives), edit your images and produce stunning output such as a quality print.
This is a great place to start if you are just looking to use Lightroom to edit your images or if you wish to have an overview of all that Lightroom has to offer.
We combine presentations, demonstrations, and hands on practical exercises to provide a balanced and effective learning experience.
