About the course

Are you feeling confused, lost or overwhelmed when you come to edit your photos? Do you feel intimidated by all the different tools in Lightroom? Are you unsure of where to start when it comes to organising and editing your photos?

This course is for you if:

  • You are completely new to editing and want to feel confident editing your images in Lightroom.
  • You have a basic understanding of Lightroom but want to level up your skills and feel confident developing your own editing style.
  • You feel overwhelmed by all the different editing tools available and want to grow your confidence as a photo editor.


By the end of this course, you will be able to confidently edit an image from start to finish, keep your files organised, and export them quickly and easily for whatever you need them for. You’ll receive five underwater presets, as well as five of my raw images to practice on. You’ll also receive notification of updates when they are made.

Included in this course are 5 of my raw files for you to practice your new editing skills, as well as 5 of my presets from my Underwater Preset Pack.

FAQ

  • I am completely new to editing. Is this course too advanced for me?

    Absolutely not. This course is just for you! I have designed this course to go right from the beginning, taking the images on your SD card into Lightroom, editing them and exporting them. No prior knowledge required!

  • I am not an ocean photographer. Does that matter?

    No it doesn't. Whilst the primary image we'll be working on is an underwater image, the tools we learn can be applied to any photo. I also run through some edits with other images including landscapes and portaits.

  • I have some questions. How do I contact you?

    If you have any questions at all, please send me an email to [email protected].
