- As photographers we don't want shoots that stay hidden on a flash drive and retouching can be a wonderful tool that photographers could be utilizing more. My mission is to help photographers learn styles of retouching in a way that isn't overwhelming. These lessons are easy to follow. Photographers can start using the techniques on their photos right away.
- "I don't know how to edit" - But retouching is as important as knowing how to photograph
- "I just send them the photos" - But you could be 'WOW'ing your clients with portraits that look finished by retouching them.
- "Photoshop is so complex" - No it's not. You have a mind block that I can help break
- "Where do I even start" - You start.
- These are some of the phrases that I hear from photographers that just break my heart. My responses are next to them. Clients photos could be so much more and I can help. Photoshop is an extremely user friendly system It's just got a bad rap sheet. I am passionate about helping these photographers learn photoshop in a fun environment! We start with the basics and move into more complex styles of retouching. The course isn't overwhelming and makes mastering photoshop easy!
- Photography is the fastest growing profession with 22.1% reporting photography as a part time job. 2018 had 140,000 people reporting Professional photography as their full time career. Photography as a profession has a growth rat of 4.49% per year.
- This course is for photographers that are overwhelmed when it comes to retouching their shoots. Retouching creates a finished and polished look that clients what from a professional photographer. I am an Adobe Affiliate and have over a decade in retouching experience.
- I'm seeking funding for Advertising to reach photographers.
- I will be hiring an assistant that will handle booking lessons and making sure the students get everything they need to be successful.
- I'd like to make the course into an App for iOS and Android. I would have to hire that out.
- Funding would also allow me with the option to rent a workspace for in person classroom settings (When Pandemic is over)
- Currently, It's just me! Looking to add several team members once I receive funding though.
Thank your for you support and generosity! I have several gifts for you!
