Your One–Stop Resource for Lightroom
Taking photographs is the fun part, but importing, organizing and editing your images might seem daunting. Now, you can unlock the tools to take your digital workflow from arduous to effortless! Join me, software expert Skott Chandler, in my online Craftsy class The Essential Guide to Lightroom, and discover how to streamline your post–processing so that it's faster and easier than ever!

As photographers, we take hundreds and even thousands of photos during a single shoot. Learn the frustration–free way to organize and edit your images with Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom® ! We'll begin with a walk–through of how to use this software to efficiently catalog your shots for instant access, saving you valuable time.
 
 
Then, take control of your digital workflow as you learn to optimize Lightroom settings, and adjust presets to ensure your shots print beautifully. Achieve high–quality image resolution to avoid losing critical file information, and learn to create a Lightroom catalog that's personalized for your files and organizational preferences.

Next, delve into importing images; I'll guide you through selecting options that will make this process as efficient as possible. Using the Library Module as a starting point, you'll learn to import files from various sources, and then back up your images to a second location. Explore timesaving naming and editing conventions, and use metadata presets to sort, identify and apply copyright information to your shots in large batches.
 
 
Further explore the Library Layout and its tools as you learn to use various views to compare, group and curate collections of images. Discover handy shortcuts to reveal file information and locate lost files, and learn to use Catalogs, Collections and Folders to create a digital library that looks and operates exactly the way you want!

Make data organization easier and faster with our next lesson on post–import processes, from rating and flagging to stacking and sorting. Create a Library filter to quickly find images using metadata keywords, and discover how to use the Quick Develop panel to instantly apply color and tone adjustments to multiple images.

Discover Lightroom's Develop Module, and learn to use its functions to edit images and create presets that can be saved and instantly applied to batches of future photos. I'll also show you how to use the Snapshot and History tools to save and track every phase of an image adjustment, so you never lose the original version of a photo.
 
 
Then, master some of the most helpful — and impactful — image adjustments with a lesson on histograms. Learn how to read and use these graphs to modify white balance, exposure, contrast and sharpness. Plus, sign up today for The Essential Guide to Lightroom, and enjoy a valuable lesson on best practices for exporting to ensure high–quality images that carry your digital fingerprint!

I'm a fine art photographer in Denver, Colorado, and my images have been exhibited throughout the United States, as well as France, Hong Kong and Switzerland. I graduated from Southern Utah University as the Outstanding Graduate of Art and Design, and further pursued my photographic career in the MFA program at Savannah College of Art and Design. I currently teach at the Art Institute of Colorado — and now here on Craftsy!

Learn how to get the most out of your Lightroom software, and take control of your digital workflow for truly impressive images!

Everything You Wanted to Know About Birth Photography (But Were Afraid to Ask!)

All About Birth Photography

It's 2:47am. You are snuggled so warm in your bed fast asleep, maybe even having an amazing dream. Until the most annoying, loudest sound from your phone wakes you up with a jolt. It is a call you've been waiting on for weeks. It's finally time, as in baby time. You throw on your clothes and grab your gear and a little "survival" pack, and in a matter of minutes you are out the door and on the road to the hospital. You are a birth photographer in charge of documenting a baby's arrival earthside.

There is nothing quite like birth photography. I can tell you from my experiences, it is an emotion-filled, once in a lifetime chance to witness a miracle. Each birth I have attended has been unique from one another. And I know the future ones I will photograph will be different as well. That is what makes it exciting and at times a little difficult. I hope to give you a quick rundown about birth photography, whether you are a family looking to hire a photographer or a photographer hoping to capture a birth.

First, let's talk a bit about gear...Read the rest here!

Something I appreciate about our private group on Pretty Presets (which you should join HERE) is the feedback we receive. So many great ideas are shared on how we can enhance your business. Whether it be through blog posts, the webinar material or through products. One idea that was shared, was the idea of Lightroom Print Templates. These templates are not only fun to use, but will save you the time of having to run to Photoshop.
