My 2012 LightroomWorkshops Schedule

Hope your 2012 is off to a great start! Always hard to believe a new year has rolled around once again. I just wanted to share my 2012 workshop calendar as it stands so far.

A hands-on look at Adobe Carousel

I’ve had a chance to play around with a pre-release version of Adobe’s new platform for viewing, sharing and editing your photos across any number of supported (Mac only at the moment) devices. I thought it might be helpful to share some of my impressions and how I’ve come to use this platform within my existing photo workflow.

Taming Lightroom Keyword Chaos

I don’t often get questions about how to apply keywords to photos, but I do hear from people who are struggling to regain a bit of order over an unruly keyword list, so it is to them that I devote this column. Unfortunately, there is no magic wand to wave and automatically fix a disorganized keyword list, you’ll need to roll up your sleeves, put the kettle on, and just get down to business.

New Course at Perfect Picture School and a 15% discount

I’m excited about a new learning opportunity just starting at the Perfect Picture School of Photography. This new series of classes is called One on One with an instructor of your choice. I have been teaching a specialized 4-week Lightroom class there for almost 2 years, which is still happening every month. In this new class you have the chance to work with me one on one for 4 weeks covering just the Lightroom-related topics you are most interested in learning more about.

Lightroom Workshops

I’ve been involved with writing about Lightroom, helping people solve Lightroom problems, creating videos about Lightroom, and teaching Lightroom classes since Lightroom 1 was first released. I get the most enjoyment from having the opportunity to teach people in person. I am delighted to report that I have been invited to join the team of Lightroom experts at Lightroom Workshops.

Creating and Styling Black & White in Lightroom

I’m very pleased to be able to share an excellent guest post from Dan Moughamian on creating and styling black & white photos in Lightroom 3. Many thanks to Dan for taking the time to create this and share it with us. Enjoy!

Taking Stock Give Away Goes Global

I was excited to learn that my friend Nicole S. Young was giving away a copy of my latest book Taking Stock (she wrote the Foreword)! All you need to do is leave a comment on her blog (Note: It is only open to US residents). So, since she’s got the US covered, and in the spirit of the holiday season (there’s even a Christmas tree on the cover!), I will give away a copy to one lucky winner anywhere outside of the US!

Catch the Interview and win a free book

I had the pleasure of chatting with (fellow NAPP member) Jason Anderson over at Canon Blogger about Lightroom, NAPP, the Perfect Picture School of Photography, and my latest book (due out in August) on stock photography.

My Take on Lightroom 3 Beta 2

I’m incredibly excited to see that Adobe has released an update to the original Lightroom 3 Beta! There are a few additions to this release that I am particularly excited about and think you will be too.
