This RAW to Award Photoshop Event will be a hands on, step by step session where you'll follow along with Ben and edit two control photos. The event will be split into two sessions with a 30min break for lunch (not provided).

In session one you'll be editing a close up portrait of a female subject where Ben will share with you portrait editing processes, including skin retouching, lighting, colour and tonal adjustments, cutting out subjects, adding backgrounds, blend modes, layers and Ai processes.
In session two you'll be editing an Environmental style portrait of a person or couple, where Ben will share editing processes such as, lighting, colour and tonal adjustments, cutting out subjects, adding skys, overlays and light rays, composite processes, blend modes, matching lighting and tones, and Ai processes.

Ben will share what he looks for in an image and the process he undertakes to edit every photograph to a fine art standard using Photoshop and you’ll learn how Ben takes a RAW file and turns it into an award winning image.
