BEGINNERS LIGHTROOM CLASSIC  ONLINE COURSE

with Matt Krumins Photography

LIGHTROOM CLASSIC START AT THE BEGINNING

Whether you’re a beginner just starting out or a seasoned professional, the image editing process is often the difference between a beautifully balanced images and a contrasty mess. The best part? It doesn’t have to be complicated. Image editing doesn’t have to mean spending hours and hours in front of the computer, it can be as simple as a couple of clicks.

Join me on this in-depth course as I simplify  the ins and outs of Lightroom Classic* including workflow, importing, basic editing, exporting and a whole lot more.

*Note, this workshop does not cover the mobile Lightroom App.

BUILD YOUR FOUNDATION

Understand how Lightroom works, and how to set up the folder structures and presets to keep yourself organised and your files safe!

IMAGE EDITING BASICS

Bring out the best in your photos with a detailed lesson in the basic editing functions in Lightroom. We cover cropping/rotate, profiles, the Basics panel, lens corrections and more.

EXPORT, SHARE, BACKUP

Set up your exporting presets and minimise clutter in your workflow whilst keeping things safe and backed up.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

This course is perfect for those who have never used Lightroom before or for those who need to wipe the slate clean and start with a new approach. This course doesn’t assume you have any prior knowledge however having some basic computer skills will help to make the process smoother.

This is the best part, you have ongoing access to this course and can watch any of the modules as many times as you like. It’s a fantastic resource for your Lightroom journey not only today but into the future. 

Unfortunately not. This course is hosted on my Learn-Online platform and required an internet connection to access the content.

For a listing of what is covered in this workshop check out the course outline. I don’t delve into the advanced features such as Masking, Transform tools and Collections in this workshop to help keep it digestible for new Lightroom users.

WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING?

"I have just done Matt’s Beginners Lightroom course and can not recommend it highly enough. Lightroom is something that I have struggled with for a few years and just could not grasp the basics. The way Matt breaks it down and the friendly, informative way it was presented, all suddenly started to make sense. Matt could not of been any more helpful and displays an outstanding knowledge of the subject. It was my first course with Matt but certainly won’t be my last. Looking forward to doing more of the wide range of course he offers."
