Photography Post-Processing

The post-processing module teaches you how to make your photographs better. You will be guided by three photographers with black belts in this field, each with a different approach. You will work in Lightroom, but the principles you will learn will also apply to Photoshop, Capture One, and Snapseed.

What you will learn:

• how to adjust white balance, shadows, contrast, white level, black level, skin tone, and other basic functions;

• the history of post-processing and classic photo manipulation in the digital era;

• dodge, burn, masking;

• how to achieve consistent post-processing within a series/project.

  
  

What you will not learn:

• advanced post-processing;

• workflow.

  
  

You will need:

• 20–30 RAW photographs;

• a laptop;

• Lightroom installed.

  
  

About the lecturers:

Sorin Florea has been photographing for over 20 years. He makes a living from commercial photography but is passionate about “stories that need to be told,” with a leaning toward geographical (he has traveled beyond the Arctic Circle), cultural, and anthropological exploration.

Andrei Păcuraru is a photographer with over 15 years of teaching and commercial experience, a founding member of the National Association for Contemporary Visual Arts, and a contemporary artist.

Adi Bulboacă photographs artists, theatres and train stations, performances and performance halls, all kinds of products; he runs everything that can be run: half marathons, marathons, mountain marathons, ultra-marathons. Almost everything he does, he does out of passion, and he is the kind of person with very few unfulfilled dreams.
