Unlock PHLEARN PRO

I have been watching the PRO tutorials for many years and I think this one is my favorite. A great mix of technical and artistic information combined with workflow and asset management tips. I have only ever used smart objects to hold smart filters, not realizing how much more powerful they are!

Aaron is still the best! I’ve been using Lightroom since 2009. Whenever I need to learn something new or refresh my existing knowledge I come to PHLEARN. Aaron is my go-to instructor.

Wow! What a great set of classes! I have watched hundreds of Aaron’s courses and they have always brought my Photoshop skills up to the next level. I am so glad he’s keeping up with all the new tools in Photoshop and Camera RAW. Game changer!

Aaron Nace’s Photoshop 2026 tutorial explains things that Adobe’s menus have been hiding from me forever. Clear, fast, funny. Highly recommended.

Aaron Nace is my absolute favourite tutor for everything Photoshop. I’ve been following him for years. This is a great tutorial that I often return to. Aaron’s videos are delivered in a relaxed, easy-to-follow style.

This is more than a how-to tutorial. The instruction, examples, and presentation inspire the student to seek deeper meaning in Lightroom masks and color adjustments. As a fine art teacher, I appreciate the approach and point many of our students to these tutorials. They are far more than HOW, they also teach WHY.

This is a fantastic class for everyone. Whether you love AI, hate AI, or are someplace in between, this class will wake up your neurons and stoke your creative juices. As usual, Aaron teaches the who, what, where, when, how, and why in every step.

I love the way you teach. It is always so complete. You point out most or all of the pitfalls and I can follow along without trying to figure out “How did he do that?!”

Really solid tutorial. Clear, practical, and easy to follow without feeling dumbed down. It focuses on understanding natural light and making edits that look clean and realistic, not overdone. The workflow is professional, non-destructive, and actually useful for real portrait work.

Best teacher on Photoshop by far. Thank you for all your hard work, and keep the tutorials coming.

This compositing tutorial is excellent. I feel I accomplish so much more doing steps manually instead of relying on AI all the time.
