What do you learn on Lightroom Courses?

  • Importing and organising your photo library
  • Editing and enhancing images with confidence
  • Using Adobe Camera Raw for precise adjustments
  • Managing large collections efficiently
  • Preparing images for print and online use

Start with Lightroom Fundamentals

Begin by learning to create and manage Lightroom catalogues and collections to organise your workflow. Lightroom is a very powrful visual database that helps organise, file and retrieve literally thousands of images efficiently and quickly.

Explore the Lightroom Interface and modules

Work with the Lightroom interface and its key modules for editing, enhancing, and repairing photographs. This gives you a clear understanding of the whole process and how different workspaces fit in to the editing process from importing through to export.

Library Module & Workflow

Learn the central hub for importing, managing, organising, and sorting photos

Professional Retouching using the Develop Tab

Dive into the Develop Tab, where the real editing magic happens. You’ll master exposure, contrast, and colour grading, and explore AI tools like AI Denoise, Lens Blur (AI), and Auto Tone for faster, smarter edits.

AI Masking, Object Selections and Smart Edits

Lightroom’s selection tools make targeted editing precise and effortless. You’ll master Select Subject, Select Sky, Select Background and Colour/Luminance Range  alongside manual masking and brush techniques. 

To quote Greta Powell at this point “You’re dead in the water if you can’t select properly.” With Lightroom’s selection tools, you’ll learn perfect selections every time.

* Optional - Generative AI & Advanced Removal

  • Distraction & People Removal: specifically designed to target and eliminate background people, wires, or poles with a single click.
