    SOME OF THE SAMPLE CUSTOMER REVIEW FROM AMAZON :


    1) A MUST HAVE video series for Lightroom users - As a photography enthusiast but new user of Lightroom , I purchased this tutorial series to help me get quick start in learning the program. I had spent a good deal of time hunting down youtube videos - some very good - some not, but as I discovered more about the power of L.R., the more I realized I needed to have something more comprehensive than just tutorials on a particular aspect of the program. Now that I've watch many of the videos and used Lightroom for about 4 weeks, I'm so happy that I have these videos to refer too. I would not have been able to use L.R. to its fullest without them. Laura clearly explains the how's and why's of this feature rich program in a easily understandable presentation. She also covers the new aspects of Lightroom CC and the mobile functions that come with that service. If you have made the investment of purchasing Lightroom, spend just a little more to easily learn all it's capabilities. I think it is worth every penny and was quite a bargain.

    2) A Very Well Done Series! - I have used Aperture for the last 7 years. All my images (more than (25,000) were in Aperture libraries and I dreaded learning another app and the subsequent transfer of my image files. I spent hours trying to grasp the nuances of Lightroom 6. The deeper I went, the more apparent it became that I needed some help grasping the finer points. I kept coming across Laura's name in my web searches for LR help. So, I read up on her courses and decided to take the $50.00 plunge and purchase The Fundamentals & Beyond video series. After completing all the modules I can honestly say "I know Lightroom" and I am very comfortable using all the features. This is a GREAT course. Easy to use and its always there if you need a refresher or two down the road. I don't hesitate at all recommending The Fundamentals and Beyond video series.
