Reviews

The solution to my requirement is not possible within the traditional set of Photoshop tools, but John quickly developed a clever and simple workaround solution which he was able to demonstrate and teach to me, a Photoshop novice, in a very short period of time. After the initial lesson, he answered repeated follow up questions about unanticipated things that came up while I was using his solution in Photoshop. He actually answered my questions over the Christmas holidays, which was very unexpected, but very welcome. Throughout this extended process, John continued to patiently explain things in a way that was easily understandable to a novice. Highly recommended! Thank you.

John straightened out some problems I was having with importing photos. He was patient and to the point and taught me a few short cuts. He knows Lightroom very well and I would recommend him.

John did a great job listening to understand my goals and to help me begin the steps to get there. And he helped me identify some other things along the way that were useful.

A clear and direct communicator, John was a pleasure to work with. He immediately determined my level of knowledge, and began teaching from there. He was very centered around my knowledge level and my learning pace. He was clear and patient in his instruction, and adapted his teaching to my learning style. In addition, john?s teaching and experience background is impressive.

He was so patient when explaining concepts and was super knowledgable. He was willing to look into all options to help me. He went above and beyond the scope of our session

My interest is the application of Lightroom and Photoshop to portraits. Not how the commands work. But, what needs to be modified in images to make them pop and how to make changes that look natural. Wow! I chose the right tutor. We are starting with the basics. I'm learning and very pleased. John is a master retoucher that knows how to pass on his skill.
