Why attend my Lightroom CC Classic Mastery workshops?
Because unlike videos or watch-only courses, I teach Lightroom interactively and effectively in a way you’ll retain the learning. Each student receives a folder packed with reference materials including step-by-step PDFs and online tutorial links. You’ll leave with much greater confidence in Lightroom to take full control of your photos, make professionally-creative edits and learn many time-saving tips.


Here’s what former students are said in my feedback survey about these workshops:

“We bought Kelby One and CreativeLive videos. We watched YouTubes and took notes. It was hit or miss and no way for questions. We have just completed Dave’s Lightroom course and BOOM, it all makes sense now… Dave explained his workflows very understandably. We can’t wait to dive into our Africa shots!” — Günther F., Bellevue WA

“Dave is a Lightroom guru! He is extremely organized, articulate and thorough, and he is patient with your questions. I have looked at many processing workflows, and Dave’s is THE BEST. He makes it simple and backs it up with a helpful and comprehensive PDF” — Ted W., Camden Maine

“Dave’s an awesome teacher and made things easy to understand. I have a great respect for his knowledge and his ability to communicate it. — Jen K., Seattle WA

“David’s deep knowledge of Lightroom and computer technology is well-matched with his powers of communication and his patience. Lightroom is not so much complex as it is intricate. David can help you find your way around.” — Paul G., Portland OR
