Are you a portrait photographer who is a Photoshop Beginner? I can remember when I first opened up the program and how overwhelmed I felt. What are all these tools? It is such a powerful tool, but I didn't even know where to begin! My goal for this course is to teach you a few simple Photoshop skills that have to power to significantly elevate your work!
My name is Kelley Hoagland and I'm so excited you're here! I’m a mom of 3 girls and family photographer who loves helping other photographer along in their journey of learning! While I used to view Photoshop as a tool that was meant for drastic edits that I wasn't interested in providing for my clients (i.e. I'm not interested in altering anyone's body), I have found that a learning few Photoshop simple skills can take you a long way towards removing distractions that might draw the viewer's away away from your subject. After all, that's what I want to capture and celebrate, my subject's beautiful faces.
Running a creative business was actually never part of my "life plan". I'm actually a pediatric occupational therapist by training. I've always enjoyed creative pursuits like theater and crafting, but really fell in love with photography after the birth of my first child. I quickly saw that the skill I had developed as a therapist really supported my business, especially when it came to directing and communicating with children. However, I obviously needed to learn how to use a camera. While a local photography class got me started, I quickly turned to online education. Isn't it amazing what we can learn from the comfort of our home? The education I received truly changed my life and I am so grateful!
