Course Description
A customized photography workshop designed to broaden and challenge your
digital horizons in a relaxed SMALL group environment.
We personalize the workshop experience and maximize return by valueing student instructor interaction. These workshops promise individual attention in a small group environment by limiting enrollment to 5 students per instructor. This is a workshop for anyone seeking to master
digital imaging in the field through post production and output. We will cover everything from capture, workflow, camera
raw, to using Lightroom, Adobe Photoshop, & Bridge and as a "digital darkroom" to enhance
images for output in a calibrated environment. This exciting workshop
will inspire and focus your skills via hands-on experience and a mixture
of lectures, discussions, and critiques both in the field and the digital
darkroom.
We tailor
digital lab time in Photoshop to
suit your interests with a unique flexibility that few other workshops
can provide. Our workshops focus digital darkroom lessons and tutorials designed specifically
to suit your interests. For your convenience we work collaboratively with you on your own laptop computer, so that you are free to maximize learning based on your individual needs. We remove the frustration most schools, labs, and workshops initiate by eliminating the necessity to re-adapt lessons from school and lab equipment to fit your personal equipment and software. Each student will need to have a computer, If you don't have your own, arrangements can be made to rent one.

Crank up Your Workflow, Increase Productivity & Propel Your Digital Photography to the Next Level
I thought I knew a lot about Photoshop and digital photography. I'd read a lot of books and have been using Photoshop on an advanced level for several years now. I had gaps in my understanding I didn't even know I had. The Digital Vacation Workshop filled in a tremendous amount of missing knowledge. I was blown away by how much I learned in the Digital Vacation Workshop!
- Ira Estin
