I take around 50,000 images a year, they vary from theatrical productions through weddings to fashion and beauty shoots. I have developed a workflow based around Photoshop Lightroom 3 and Photoshop CS5 that allows me to import, backup, keyword, sort, proof etc in a fast and efficient manor.

During this 3 hour course I will show you my workflow from when I insert the memory card into the computer through to outputting for us one the web or print. I’ll show you how much you can do in Lightroom and when it is necessary to export to Photoshop. We’ll look at my favourite develop presets, export plugins and a fe Photoshop actions and everyone will get a CD with actions and presets together with layered PSD files.

Finally I will show you three methods I use for smoothing skin.
