Online Workshops For Photoshop Elements

Do you have Photoshop Elements but cannot figure out how to use it? Have you tried to edit some photos but have not had the results that others get with the program? Do you hear about “actions” all the time and wonder how the heck to use them? You have come to the right place!

Everyday Elements are online workshops designed to help you learn how to use PSE for portrait editing. There are three different levels of classes, and also a class solely on using actions, so hopefully you will find one that meets your needs.

Each online workshop lasts two hours, during which time attendees will be able to see my screen as I edit photos and hear me describe what I’m doing. They will also be able to type in questions and comments during the workshop. In addition to the two hour workshop, they receive access to private video tutorials for their level after registering for their class. The video tutorials can be viewed before and/or after the class for an undetermined length of time.

Group workshop are just $35 and private workshops are $45 for 1.5 hours.
