New Infrared Photography Course
New Infrared Photography CourseI'm excited to announce the launch of my new infrared photography course, Mastering Infrared Photography in Lightroom. This course provides a step-by-step guide for processing infrared images in Lightroom. You don't need prior knowledge of infrared photography, and you don't need to be a seasoned Lightroom or Photoshop user to create vibrant infrared images. This course comprises 20 lessons and includes over 3 hours of tutorials. You can learn at your own pace. You can follow each lesson to learn the fundamentals of editing infrared footage, or refer to a specific lesson as a refresher. It covers everything you need to know about white balancing images, multiple workflows for swapping colors to achieve a "blue sky" or other creative looks, a breakdown of the key features of the Edit panel, and five complete image edits, each utilizing a different workflow. If you are just getting started with infrared photography or struggling with roadblocks, this is the course for you.
I'm looking forward to adding additional lessons to this course and creating additional courses. What topics would you like to see covered? Book CorrectionMy book, Color Doesn't Exist: A Practical Guide to Infrared Photography, is shipping worldwide. This was mistakenly still listed as US-only on my website (my bad šµ). This has been corrected, and shipping is available worldwide. I'll cover the cost of shipping if you order the print/eBook bundle. During checkout, use the code
