Hello, my name is Diana, I am photographer and retoucher. I have a quite unusual biography. When I finished school, I entered Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology. Physics and math are still my big passion, and I spent many years teaching other people to love science. Photography has always been my hobby; I think I did not take it seriously that time, but I always felt happy only with a camera in my hands. I worked in IT company, Economic institute, Business consulting and many other areas. Finally I understood that there is no better work than to create beautiful pictures, learn photography and to help other people to learn it. Over the years I still enjoy my work and I constantly find something new and exciting. I hope we can discover together even more.

The course is very basic, but detailed. It serves the purpose.
By David Hyldkrog on 4/19/2019
The teacher give some very precise and useful advice that everybody can use. Fx how to make your look body skinny and fit in minutes using photoshop and how to make your skin looks better. The reason why I don't give 5 stars is because the course need an update with the dodge and burn technique.

Excellent information. I enjoyed this class
By Respina Jani on 12/29/2016
This course was extremely useful. She covered what I needed to know, and the flow is perfect. Unlike most tutorials that give you a snippet of each tool, this course was a full package covering portrait edits that can take your picture to the next level. I am a happy customer.
