Have you ever wondered how to get the great images you envisioned when you captured them in your camera? Although the exposure, the lighting, and the framing seemed right, somehow the image does not match what you saw and felt when you looked through the viewfinder. This hands-on workshop explores retouching techniques that empower your creative vision and bring back that “alive” feeling—the mood, the light, and all the nuances that first inspired you to capture the image.

Using Adobe Photoshop and the full suite of Nik Software products, Janice demonstrates new techniques that do away with tedious selections and endless steps, thereby saving many hours in front of the computer. Topics include getting the most out of your workflow, optimizing raw images, noise reduction techniques, and global adjustments versus targeted adjustments. We also explore selective enhancements, bringing out detail, applying traditional techniques, creating black-and-white images from color capture, and developing a personal style through retouching.

Step by step, Janice energizes and inspires you. Come learn to listen to your images and to see what is possible in the final steps of image enhancement.
