Lightroom Mobile

Small group interactive training

10:00-17:15

​

Our phones are increasingly being used for "serious" photography and the software available is ever more powerful.  Adobe's mobile Lightroom works alongside the desktop software and in this series we will explore how it all links together and how to use the editing tools to their best effect.  While the process isn't too complicated, making the right decision at the outset will make things flow smoothly.

​

You will discover how to use the many features of the mobile system and through a series of simple exercises, you will create a working system and get comfortable with the editing and sharing tools.

Delivered in four parts with a 15 minute comfort break morning and afternoon and a 45 minute lunch break.
