Studio Portrait Photography Editing Information

Studio Portrait Photography Editing Information by Martin Castein is a course focused on teaching photographers how to enhance their studio portraits using Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom.

In this course I will teach you how I use Photoshop and Lightroom to edit my work.

My editing style

The art of editing is as important as lighting and composition.

People spend years studying the wrong things and not learning simple and effective techniques.

In this course I will show you from start to finish how I edit all of these pictures. From my more standard edits to cinematic style as well as fine art and black and white.

The techniques use only basic tools in photoshop and no plugins or complicated methods.

You can waste time and potentially never learn how to use these tools effectively or join this course and get straight to it.

What you need to know.

This course is taught with Lightroom and Photoshop. You can use the principals in most editing software though.

In the concepts part of the course I have a brief run through of the tools I most often use in Photoshop.

You dont have to have any prior experience in either lightroom or photoshop but if you dont you should expect to do some searches on youtube for tutorials to understand some of the basic tools I use. Therefore some basic understanding of Lightroom and Photoshop is expected.
