Photography with RA F.

Areas of specialization: Learning to use your digital camera, Photoshop from basic to advanced, portfolio development. I love working with new photographers to learn their cameras and effectively post-process their images. Whether you are a beginner or have more advanced knowledge, I can help you gain both skill and confidence to bring your photography to the next level. I'm a professional photographer doing both commercial and fine art work in Philadelphia. I currently teach online course for Pratt Institute, PA Academy of Fine Arts and The City of Philadelphia Mural Arts Project. My background is in the sciences and fine arts and I love to share my ten plus years of hands-on experience. I am what is usually called a "power user" when it comes to Photoshop. I've tacked everything from removing writing written on human skin to removing/replacing backgrounds. I work with the program nearly every day along with Adobe Lightroom. I've been doing photography since the era of film and I've worked with nearly every kind of camera. My background is heavily informed by the fine arts. I minored in drawing as an undergraduate, eventually going on for an MFA in painting.
