Acton, MA Adobe Photoshop Lessons

I have been using Photoshop for 5 years and have experience with photo editing, drawing, and photomanipulation. I have an extensive knowledge of the software and can teach the ins and outs of how to create and edit images in Photoshop, as well as how to work with video and 3D models.

I have been using Adobe Photoshop both academically and professionally for about 7 years now. I use it primarily to edit and create architectural renderings, edit photos that I have taken, as well as any graphics that I have created. I currently use CS5.5 at home and CS6 at work. I have reference images available. I believe the entire Adobe Suite works best when intertwined with both Illustrator and InDesign as the programs are very similar to one another.

I have been a professional photographer for the past 8 years, providing portraiture, retail and commercial photography services. Adobe Photoshop is an integral part of my workflow and I spend hours a day using it to retouch my photographs as well as create graphic layouts including flyers, postcards, ads, etc.

I structure my lessons to make sure students learn the retouching skills they are hoping to master for their particular projects while providing a strong foundation in principals of using the software, including use of the plethora of tools, making sure the finished product looks natural and realistic, and of course exploring creativity.

As an Adobe® certified instructor I will help to understand and master the most powerful tool for image retouch and media creation for multiple platforms and purposes Adobe® Photoshop

For print, video, multimedia, 3D and animation, Adobe® Photoshop its a great tool that you must master no matter the area you want study or get proficient.

And in todays social media panorama, the original content creation is becoming more relevant to your users and community.

Welcome to the world of Photo Editing! Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to gain an understanding of the layout and the different uses for the tools found in Photoshop. As time goes on you'll be able to retouch and stylize your photos, to give them that professional look you have been wanting. I also specialize in Digital Painting, which also can be done here in Photoshop. All you need to get started is Photoshop CC, a mouse, Wacom/ Graphics Tablet (illustration). Start today!

I've been designing for almost 15+ years and have become very familiar with the adobe suite programs. I consider myself a master in adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. I started learning the Adobe suite in High School and used every opportunity to play with each tool and option in Adobe Illustrator and photoshop. I graduated from the Georgia Southern University Design program at the top of my class and have won several design awards since then.

My approach to tutoring is to start with the fundamentals and then progress to the concepts of how Adobe suite is setup. My goal is to remove any mental block caused by lack of knowledge of the software, to allow you to create without limits. I see the potential in each student and will push you to become the best you can be. I believe if you put in the work and time you too can become a master at Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.

I teach Photoshop for Photographers usually combined with Lightroom. You will learn how to enhance your images for presentation on a screen/website or for printing. Lessons are available in person or remotely.

I've been using Photoshop since the mid 90's. My skills are multi-faceted, I'm both a photographer and designer. This creates an ability to use the many functions of Photoshop in many ways.

We'll start with assessing your skill level and where we should start your lessons. Basically, bringing you up to speed on current features and quick-key commands. We can then move on to more tailored lessons that fit the desired outcome you need.
For specifically photography, we'll learn how Adobe Bridge, Camera Raw, and Photoshop work together to create a simple workflow for putting out quality prints and digital content.

Design lessons will take us through making composite images all the way to commercial content creation like fliers, posters and digital content. Of course, we can max both for an all-encompassing photoshop experience.

I'm excited to work with you, let's make something awesome!

From Photoshop Elements to Photoshop Creative Cloud, I will introduce you to the functions and concepts behind the Photoshop phenomenon! If you have never used it, it is as interesting as you may have heard. If you know the fundamentals, I can help you use some of the more advanced features of the program like working with layers, basics of color spaces and outputs for web and print, understanding the workspace, embedding watermarks and using filters for creative and functional enhancement of your images.
