Click It Info

Click It!!

So, you took the Snapshop and you are on your way to getting those FABULOUS pictures while you are rockin' out your camera...

Well...now what?  It's no use just keeping them ON your camera forever...you need to display them...show your kids how you "see" them...fill your home with images of LIFE and MOMENTS as they happen...

AND YET...in between laundry, dishes and dirty diapers...and NOW, trying to juggle the settings on your camera in order to get a "great" shot...well, let's face it...LIFE, in and of itself, just happens!!!

This is where Photoshop can help...this is the sort of thing that I do late at night when my body is tired and if I fold one more t-shirt or pair of pants, I think I might explode...so I sit back in front of my computer and start to peruse the pictures I've taken...

The Click It:  Good to GREAT class introduces you to the world of photoshop elements!  It is a user-friendly program that allows you to take your photos and enhance them...basically make them POP so that you feel terrific about enlarging and printing them for your walls...

This is a first course in a series...this teaches you the basics of photoshop elements...

What you will learn:

 *basics of the program that you can apply to all photos

*how to open, close, crop, resize for print and the web

*to become adept at analyzing your images so you can diagnose what to do to make your pictures pop: 

*Global Editing (things applied to a whole image)

*a bonus item of your choice for retouching or finishing your images

prerequisites

You'll need to have Adobe Photoshop Elements  installed on your computer.  You can get a free 30 day trial from adobe if you wish.

OR it's on sale now through Amazon HERE 

What you'll receive

*full color print out of notes to follow in class as well as step by step instructions to take home with you.

*I'll help you know how and when to use basic tools in photoshop to help make your photos even better

*we'll use YOUR individual photos before and after class so that you can see the results immediately with your OWN pictures!

Click It will also help you with any photoshop version under 13.0 as well...each year Adobe just adds a new little gadget...so, even though 13.0 has the most options, 6.0 can still get your photos poppin' and printed out into a beautiful scrapbook page if you'd like!

This first class runs between 1.5-2 hours

Investment: $65

It is BEST for you to have a laptop in order to practice on while instruction is taking place...if you do not, you can always buddy up with someone else or be sure to take extra notes to help you remember certain details that you don't want to forget.  But also remember, that you have "yours truly" at your fingertips..I"m only a phone call/email away for any questions or refreshers you might need in the future...

My goal is to help you gain the confidence and understanding you need to learn how to DIY and make your photos be all that they can be!!!

Click It UP: features a "part 2" of the photoshop process.  In Click It, you learn the basics of the program, the tools and functions...you learn how to do a "global" edit (enhancements to the whole photo).  In Click It UP, we focus more on the retouching, the fine tuning and go deeper into layer masking & clipping masks to create not only fantastic portraits, but beginning the process of creating digital cards & signs.

Currently, Click It UP is only offered with one on one mentoring (see pricing above)
