Introduction to Photoshop Elements
Learn how to adjust, enhance and manipulate your photographs using Adobe Photoshop Elements. Elements is an affordable program for editing, adjusting, enhancing and manipulating your photographs. Corey will demonstrate how to use Photoshop Element's tools and identify important features. Topics covered include: cropping and straightening your photos, adjusting saturation and contrast, eliminating red-eye, removing unwanted elements, converting to B&W, sharpening, resizing, making selections and non-destructive adjustment techniques.

All participants will receive a CD with the images Corey uses in the class. Participants are encouraged to bring a laptop with Photoshop Elements installed to follow along as Corey demonstrates the techniques. If you bring your laptop you can work on the images at the same time Corey does. Otherwise you'll be able to practice on the images when you get home. Unfortunately we are not able to provide computers for participants. Even if you don't have a laptop, much can be gained by attending the class and observing Corey using Elements.

This information packed four and a half hour class will help you become familiar with the features and layout of Photoshop Elements, as well as teach you shortcuts, tips and tricks.

What's the difference between "Photoshop Elements" and "Photoshop"?
This can be a little confusing because the names are similar, but “Photoshop” and “Photoshop Elements” are two completely separate programs. Elements is a full-featured program for photographers looking to edit and enhance their photographs. Photoshop is much more advanced, with many additional features for professional-level control over your images, and it's pretty expensive. If you don’t have either program we recommend starting with Elements. The good news is if you start with Elements and then decide to move up to Photoshop, you can upgrade for a reduced price!
