Adobe Lightroom for the Underwater Photographer

Presenter: Doug Sloss

Fee: $75.00

Location: Underwater Phantaseas

Class Schedule: 6:00 – 9:30

Join Scuba Diving Australasia Field Editor Doug Sloss for a lecture-style workshop designed to give underwater shooters the confidence and knowledge to set up, organize, and effectively post process their underwater and topside images using Lightroom.

Topics covered will include: setting up and maintaining lightroom catalogs, developing a comprehensive, easy to understand strategy for your digital photo library, importing photos from your camera and hard drives, organizing images using the Library module and Collections, keywording, metadata and of course a raw file workflow with image development and color-correction techniques that help you craft the very best image from your digital captures.

From dive trip location catalogs to processing your images using Lightroom's intuitive controls, you'll learn how to keep everything organized and archived so exporting photos, making slideshows and printing your winners is easy, effective, and fun.

This class is designed for photographers of all experience levels who are new, or unfamiliar with Lightroom and want an all-in-one solution for organizing and editing their digital assets.
