Another great course by Sandy ! Now i really understand how i leverage the different strengths of Lightroom and Photoshop and create and create a smooth retouch workflow ! Nice work ! Highly recommend this class as it gets you what you need in a matter of few hours !
By Brian Schumacher
This has proven to be a very useful course for me, with lightroom tricks that I can use straight away in my own editing. It starts off with a quick intro on how to install and access Lightroom, then dives right into the interface catalog. Sandy talks through things in a clear logical manner which is nice to follow along to!
By Jacquie Westendorf
Good info, but she is bit hard to understand at times
By Steven Ricker
Excellent introduction to Lightroom retouching so far - looking forward to the photoshop section.

By Andre Odermatt
Bisher ist der Kurs relativ Basic. Bin gespannt ob da noch mehr im Advanced-Bereich kommen wird.
Fast jede Einstellung wird gleich als Preset gespeichert. Bin gespannt ob das am Ende was bringt. Momentan stört das eher.

Instructor explains everything in a clear and logical way that is easy to follow - I especially appreciate her taking the time on the initial installation. Might be obvious to some but not for me! This has improved my Lightroom expertise a great deal.

Very easy to follow and very informative. So far this is the best instructional class I have purchased from UDEMY!

I quite enjoyed this course even if I did not watch hall the video. Some were not interesting for me so I skipped them.
The nice accent of the narrator is unfortunately sometime hard to understand. This is especially annoying when she use shortcuts... I always had to stop the video and search exactly witch one it was...
Sometimes I felt like some videos were just filling some space and gives no real information...
Overall I learned some good tips it's what I needed after all.
By Jon Clemson
Straightforward introduction to Lightroom and the retouching process. Starting from scratch is very useful for me, even though I have some knowledge on the subject. Sandy speaks clearly and it's just what I am looking for
By Shawn Morrow
So far so good, I am enjoying the course
