Phil Hawkins

Your tutorial instructor. 

I’ve been teaching photography and photo processing software for 20 years, with Adobe, Peachpit, Lynda.com, and other publishers.  Now offering  my own instructional series, I am PROUD to offer my most comprehensive course on Photoshop for Beginners.

I absolutely guarantee you will be able to process your digital photos to the highest quality with clear, unrushed, simple instruction that will immediately allow you to understand not only the basic functionality of Photoshop, but also the basic concepts of digital photography that allow you to make better decisions in the field and when processing your files.  You won’t believe how easy it is to learn to make meaningful adjustments to your images in Photoshop, even if you have NEVER opened the program before.  I will not burden you with jargon and functions you don’t need in order to prepare your images for either print or the internet, whether for grandmas dressing table, email attachments or a fine art display in a gallery.
