About the instructor:

I have been using Lightroom for four years, since version 1 was released and have taught numerous workshops and provided one on one training to area photographers on the use of Lightroom in their workflow. I have mastered how to perform 100% of my workflow on 90% of my photographs without leaving Lightroom.
