This is exactly what I wanted to learn! Super easy to understand. I’m super happy to find this lesson! Thank you from Japan!
I am very happy can learn from a master as Aron. My knowledge growing after every minute from tutorials. Even you are more then beginner in photoshop I highly recommending watch videos without a skipping it.
This course was everything that I expected and more. It goes over the best practices of retouching in Photoshop which is really great in organizing files so that you can always come back to them later. It was definitely worth the money.
I bought the bundle, and have just finished going through 101
This is truly amazing stuff. My editing ‘tradition’ and practice has come from landscape and street work. I got into portraiture, because I love shooting people. My earlier retouching was very basic.
This has really opened my eyes to the world of retouching, and has given me a good deal of respect for professional retouchers. And, I am only 33% of the way through the bundle.
Aaron is a superb instructor. Very personable, and I like this. he does indeed make ‘unlearning’ fun, and does it in a very structured manner
The video tutorials are laid out very well, and are easy to follow. The dodge and burn actions are a great help, though I like to use the soft light one.
Excellent tips, especially the pen tool, which I had never really used till now. I love the constant reminders of the keyboard shortcuts.
I did buy the Wacom Intuous Small several months back, after watching Aaron’s YouTube video on that.
So, really marvellous stuff.
Now, I shall be getting into the next one.
The young lady I did in the attached file, would not have been possible without this series of videos
