I recently posted a status update on Facebook asking how many people would be interested in a tutorial/class with me. I was pleasantly surprised at how many people are interested, so here are the details. It's pretty simple actually.

Email, call, or text me and let me know you are interested. We pick a date. I come to your place or you come to mine. And we go over everything. Yes, it really is that easy.

When messaging me, be prepared to let me know what you want me to focus on. A few topics I've done in the past are...

*Photoshop in general, and just do a tool-explanation lesson (it's a big program, trust me you will get your money's worth)

*Beauty retouching (this would also cover some shooting techniques to help get the final image)

*Color toning in post, color theory, ways to use color to make your flat image really stand out (this can easily last an evening, there are so many ways to go about this)

*Extracting subjects, new backgrounds, fake wallpapers, adding believable backgrounds and textures (there is a lot to cover here as well, better bring a notebook)

*Lightroom (I use it too, and an entire evening could be spent on the basics of this program, perfect for those interested in batch processing large groups of files)

*Digital bodypaint, fake makeup, etc

*shooting techniques to achieve specific looks (of course we can do camera lessons as well, not everything is about Photoshop)

And that's just off the top of my head from recent emails. We could hit it all if you are experienced in the program, or we could focus on one or two of these topics. It's up to you. But suffice to say, you will leave armed with knowledge that will take your photography to a new level.

We work a raw file from my camera and you see it all happen. Ask as many questions as you want, I have very few secrets. You will leave with a finished PSD and RAW file to use as reference as well.

Classes are $100 each. Expect them to run between 2 and 3 hours. But anyone that knows me knows how I tend to ramble, so it's entirely possible we could end up on a tangent and we take as long as 4 hours. But even then, that just means more tricks to try out at home on your own work. Either way, we don't stop until you are happy with what you paid for.
