Setting Up Photoshop Lightroom: The Right Way from the Start

10:00 to 11:00 A.M.
We start the day by bring photos into Lightroom so you can see the entire process from beginning to end. You'll see how to set up Lightroom and manage your photos the right way from the start to save you hours of wasted time and frustration. You'll learn our streamlined workflow so you'll work faster and more efficiently when it comes to finding your keepers and keeping them just a click away. Plus we'll show you how to make the most of built-in automation tools, the new Maps module for organizing your photos by location, and dozens of shortcuts to keep you way ahead of the competition.

Editing Your RAW, TIFF and JPEG Images like a Pro

11:15 A.M. to 12:30 P.M.
Lightroom lets you process RAW, TIFF and JPEG images using the same tools, but it's what you do in the Develop module that makes all the difference in the world. You're going to learn about all of the brand new Develop module sliders which will, hands down without a doubt, make your photos look better than any other version of Lightroom. You'll see which tools to use when, which ones to avoid, and how to unleash the power of Lightroom's Adjustment Brush for selective adjustments in your workflow. You'll see exactly what to do, and in what order, to work as efficiently as possible, and you'll learn the latest techniques in Lightroom 5′s groundbreaking noise removal as well as white balance, sharpening, contrast, and adjusting individual areas of your image.

LUNCH BREAK 12:30 to 1:30 P.M.

Using Lightroom 4 with Photoshop

1:30 to 2:30 P.M.
Lightroom 5 lets you handle an amazing amount of image editing, but there are times where you're going to need to jump over to Adobe Photoshop for things Lightroom wasn't designed to do. In this session, you'll learn how (and more importantly when) to use Lightroom and Photoshop together for a seamless workflow that gives you the ultimate in power and speed. You'll learn exactly how these two applications work in concert to give you incredible creative potential - from serious retouching to adding special effects. We'll even cover how third party plug-ins fit into the picture. Plus you'll learn some very cool Photoshop techniques along the way.

Showing Your Work To the Client

2:45 to 3:45 P.M.
The new Books module in Lightroom 5 will change the way you think about photo books. We'll kick off this session by going over everything you need to create a killer photo book from scratch. Plus, you'll pick up some great tips and tricks along the way to help make your books stand head and shoulders apart from everyone else's. Lightroom 5 also has some very powerful tools for photographers to create online proofs and do client presentations that can be saved to video so you can play them anywhere. You'll learn the step-by-step process for setting up and customizing a professional presentation that highlights your creativity and the quality of your work. Plus, if you've ever wished you had a really efficient way to let your clients, friends, or family view your work on the Web, you'll find out how in this session.

It's All About the Print!

4:00 to 5:00 P.M.
The printing features of Lightroom make it arguably the best program for printing photographic images ever. Aside from books, Lightroom 5 also gives you the best tools ever to create a beautiful print. We'll cover the Custom Layout options, which give you total control over printing one or several photos to a page. You'll also learn exactly how to set up your system for printing success, and automate the whole process, so you can just sit back, print, and get predictable results that look exactly the way you wanted them to. You'll see everything from setting up Lightroom's color management to configuring the print settings so you'll get quick, reliable results, while side-stepping some common printing problems. Finally, we'll finish off the day with some professional high-quality print template ideas that push Lightroom's printing features to the limit and let you show off your work like never before.

Things To Know Before You Attend

We'll make sure that your training, the classroom, and seminar materials are the very best they can possibly be. This we can control, and we work hard to make sure we exceed your expectations. However, there are several things that are simply out of our control. A little preparation can really help ensure that your travel to and from the convention center and day with us is enjoyable.

Make sure you have directions and driving instructions in hand, and know our location within the convention center. Many centers are very large and difficult to navigate. Knowing exactly where you're going can save a large amount of time and frustration.

Q. Do you offer a money-back guarantee?

A. YES! We offer a 100% money-back guarantee. We're so sure that our seminars offer the best live training anywhere, for any price that if you're dissatisfied for any reason simply contact our customer service department within 10 days after the date of your event, and we'll gladly provide you with a full refund.

Q. Where Do I Park?

A. Be aware that your convention center or nearby parking garages may charge for parking [prices will vary]. Unfortunately, parking fees are not included with your paid registration.

Q. Do You Provide Lunch?

A. No. You do have one (1) hour for lunch, and we give you this time on your own. Many convention centers do offer cafes and restaurants on the premises, and many do not. We suggest bringing a lunch and snacks for the day, or locating restaurants within walking distance to the convention center. Our staff will also make everyone attending aware of surrounding restaurants and places for snacks the day of the event.

Q. What Should I Wear?

A. Dress is casual; suits, jeans, shorts and sandals are all absolutely allowed. Please wear whatever you're most comfortable in. But, please keep in mind that many convention center rooms get very chilly, and we recommend bringing a sweater or sweatshirt in case it's needed.

Q. Will I Get A Good Seat?

A. Seating is provided on a first-come-first-serve basis. Our doors open for registration at 9:00 AM. However, please don't feel rushed to get a "good seat". Our classrooms offer balanced sound throughout, and we present on large, bright video projection screens that are easily visible from any area of the classroom. Our event seating is arranged "classroom" style; meaning you'll be very comfortable with a chair and table-top workspace.

Q. Do I Need to Bring a Note Pad?

A. The Adobe Photoshop Seminar Tour provides a detailed workbook outlining each step-by-step technique and tutorial taught in the classroom. We want you to sit back and enjoy your day learning, not scrambling to take notes. However, there may be an occasional note to jot down. Your instructor may have a helpful URL for you, or an update to a technique in your workbook. For this we provide a "notes" section on each page of your workbook. Bring a pen the day of the event and you'll have everything you'll need.

Q. Should I Bring My Laptop?

A. Laptops are not required at our events. However, you're welcome to bring yours to follow along with in the classroom. We do not provide power for laptops or other electronic devices. So bring an extra battery or two.

Q. What Kind of Access do I Have to the Instructors?

A. You've got great access! We know that one of the best things about our seminar tour is your opportunity to speak face-to-face with our instructors and ask your most pressing Photoshop questions, get your books autographed, or simply take a photo with them to commemorate your visit with us. And you'll have plenty of time for this. Our instructors are available during breaks, lunch, and after the event to answer any questions you may have, sign a book, or take a photo. By the way, this is one of the instructors' favorite things about their events as well. So be sure to stop by the stage and say, "Hi!"

Q. If I Cancel Will I Get My Money Back?
