I’ve finally completed my all-new Lightroom 4 Develop video series, which has been completely re-written with many new expanded examples and techniques. This comprehensive new series is over 6 hours in length, and contains 17 videos formatted for your browser, your iPad, and your iPhone.
Click here to check out the details, and see the list of movie titles.
No need to purchase a so-called “Advanced Series”…. it’s all here. Whether you’re a professional professional or passionate amateur, this series steps you through a complete understanding of each and every control, including the all-new LR 4.1 Color Defringing controls.
iPad downloads with chapter markers, and DVD’s for Amazon will be published soon. A special bonus movie is also in production and will be added to the series by the end of May. This new movie is entitled “Understanding Lightroom’s New Tone Controls”, and will describe the changes in the Develop module from LR 3 to 4.

I have three workshops coming up for California this spring… San Diego April 28-29, San Jose May 5-6, and Pasadena May 19-20. This intensive, two-day Lightroom workshop is being held in conjunction with lightroomworkshops.com, and you can find registration details here.
In this workshop, you will learn:
- how to use Lightroom 4′s new 2012 Process Develop controls
- a comprehensive, yet easy to understand strategy for your digital photo library setup and management
- how to work with multiple catalogs, location catalogs, and archiving techniques
- a professional end-to-end workflow using Adobe Lightroom 4.0
- step-by-step color correction exercises, to help you squeeze the very best photographs out of your digital exposures
- the basics of the output modules
- the basics of Photoshop integration and strategies for knowing when to use both to your best advantage
Bringing your own laptop computer is highly recommended!
As this is a hands-on workshop, a laptop computer is required, with a copy of the latest version of Lightroom installed. Workshop files will be provided by George. A free, trial version of Lightroom can be downloaded and used for 30 days, from here.
This workshop is perfect for any serious amateur or professional photographer who understands the basics of digital photography, and wants to master the Adobe Lightroom workflow.
