For user of any version of Photoshop Elements or CS. I’ll give you an overview and compressive tour of Photoshop and how I like to set up my buttons and preferences. This will be great if you’re brand new to PS. This tour will also be great if you’re veteran. I promise you’ll learn about buttons and setting you never knew about. It’s common knowledge that there’s 10 ways to do the same thing in PS. I’ll show you my favorite ways and tell you why they are my favorite. I’ll teach what I believe is my most valuable editing skill, the steps I use to evaluate what an images needs. Anyone can teach you how to push buttons on Photoshop. I want to teach you why you push those buttons. After you’ve learned to evaluate your image I’ll teach you the process I use to edit all my images. This section will include how to run actions, layers, masks, brushes, levels and many many more useful editing tools. This is an action packed class!!

Photoshop Tricks Class

I’ve had lots of request for an “advanced” photo editing class. I don’t want to call it an “advanced” class because you don’t have to have any advanced or intermediate skills in Photoshop. You’ll need to know how to perform the following tasks before taking the class…

1. How to open an image in Photoshop

you will learn…

1. How to remove blemishes
2. How to smooth out Skin
3. How to make eyes sparkle
4. I mentioned portraiture in the basic class, in the this class I’ll show you how to use it.
5. How to remove an item for an image
6. How to switch faces
7. How to take pounds off
8. How to create more space around the outside of your picture so you have enough image to wrap around the edges of your gallery wrap.

I am also more than happy to take requests.

The class will be held on Tuesday, Feb 11th at 7:30PM MST. Like always you don’t have to be there live, you will receive the class recording.

Magical Photos with Santa

I was so excited to be invited to guest post on Tator Tots & Jello. A really amazing blog for DIY and home decorating ideas. Enjoy…

I’m thrilled to share with you a little
Christmas spirit. What more Christmasy than SANTA CLAUS? There is
nothing like visiting Santa to get kids (and parents) excited for Christmas. Today I’m
going to give you a few ideas to make your pictures with Santa MAGICAL.
Enjoy these ideas…

Don’t
miss capturing the special moments with Santa because you are waiting
for them to look at the camera and smile. Some of my favorite photos
were taken while the kids are simply chitchatting with Santa. Enjoy these examples..

The
first thing my 2 year old said after sitting on Santa’s knee was “his fluffy
bread tickled me”. Encourage hugs and kisses, those close moments make
the most adorable photos. Enjoy these examples…

Santa with a child on his knee is the traditional photo. I say break tradition and have your child stand next to him. Great for girls in pretty dresses, fun for older kids and everyone else too. Enjoy these examples…

A visit with Santa is delightful for most kids, and very frightful for others. Be sure to capture the terror in their faces. We’ll all laugh later. Enjoy these examples…

May your days be filled with the magic and wonder of little children.

Want a little more education on taking and editing photos? Looking for the perfect gift for the camera lover in your life? You’ve found the place!! Classes are only $35 and include the live and recorded versions. Classes start in January. Visit www.photobyemilie.com/blog for more info.
