A NOTE FROM SCOTT
AN EVENT-FULL SUMMER
This isn’t necessarily the kind of online course where you sit down and watch it all in one sitting. I wanted to create a resource for folks to go to when they’re stuck with wanting to do something in Lightroom Classic (one of those top-20 things), and you’d just go to the topic you need to learn about, and the answer, along with a tutorial, is right there. So it’s more of a resource than a traditional course. I broke it up into 21 lessons (there’s one bonus lesson), and I hope you find it useful. You can find it by clicking here. Finally, we just announced this year’s Photoshop World Conference, which is coming up August 30–September 1, 2022. This year we’re still going all-virtual, so no matter where you are in the world, you can be a part of this three-day, three-track, Photoshop, Lightroom, and photography educational event. If you register early, you can save quite a bit of money, so head on over to PhotoshopWorld.com and reserve your spot today. Remember, this is your annual conference, created by KelbyOne for you, and we want you to be there (and, of course, all the classes will be archived for you to stream on-demand for a full year after the conference, so you definitely want to get in on this). I can’t wait to share all the cool new techniques, tips, tricks, and ideas with you. We have an incredible roster of instructors and it’s going to be (wait for it, wait for it) epic! Be well, and we’ll catch you next issue!

All my best,

Last issue I mentioned I was getting to do my first in-person speaking event since 2019 at B&H Photo’s OPTIC 2022 event in New York City, and I can tell you, it was glorious. Glorious! The energy you get from teaching in front of a crowd of photographers is really special, and I was thrilled to be out there again. It seemed like “the old days,” and I loved every minute of it. The event was really well attended, and I think the pent-up demand for in-person events really helped drive the attendance, even though you also could have attended the event virtually online (but whether you were there in-person or online, B&H Photo and its sponsors picked up the entire tab, which was pretty awesome). It was so great to see so many friends and instructors at the show, and B&H did a killer job presenting the event, which included a photo cruise around Manhattan and out to the Statue of Liberty (the cruise included an open bar, so yes, everyone seemed to have a blast). It was great to be in New York, and great to see so many awesome folks out there enjoying photography, digging on all the gear, and learning new stuff. Thanks to David Brommer and all the great folks at B&H Photo for creating such an epic event, and for making it free, which is just incredible. I’m out there again this month speaking for my first time at the 75th annual NECCC Photography Conference in New England, which runs July 15–17, 2022. I’m superpsyched to be teaching again, and they’re keeping me pretty busy during the three-day event doing Lightroom, Photoshop, and photography sessions. I hope I’ll get to see you there. In hometown news, Erik Kuna and I recently recorded a new course with 17 different segments on how to get the most out of your KelbyOne membership. This isn’t to sell anybody anything; after all, anyone watching it is already a KelbyOne member. The whole course is simply meant to be informative, and I’ll betcha we share a lot of stuff you didn’t realize was just waiting for you there at KelbyOne. It was inspired by talking to our members and realizing how many benefits and cool things we offer that a lot of people aren’t even aware of. Of course, we want to help you get the most of what I truly believe is one of the great values in education out there, and I think this course will open a lot of folks’ eyes. My hope is you’re really going to get a lot out of it. Another new course I want to point out is based on questions from Lightroom Classic users who attended our most recent Lightroom Conference. We compiled the top 20 most-asked questions and I answered them one by one, in detail, with step-by-step instructions.
