Feel free to contact me with any issues dealing with Photoshop and/or Lightroom, and Photography. I will listen carefully, devise a plan of action and deliver the information you need in a friendly, competent way.

While I am new to Wyzant, I have loads of experience helping with Lightroom and Photoshop.

I am an educator, trainer, technology support professional and life-long photographer and a member of the Adobe Education Trainer group. I've has introduced the in-and-outs of digital photography to students young and old since 1995 and has been involved in education since 1978. His photography is varied but he focuses on nature, travel, and sports. I have contributed to training books and websites on software, digital editing, educational and photographic topics. He leads photographic shoots, tours and classes whenever possible.

Photoshop and Lightroom are my choices for a professional digital image workflow. I have mastered the intricacies of these fully featured software products and can bring his educational acumen to the table when teaching other photographers the skills they need.

I am a long time professional photographer and have use used Lightroom for 10 years. I have completed the Adobe Education Training and typically tutor and troubleshoot with fellow photographers 5-10 hours a week image editing, organizing and picture sharing issues.

Structured Learning

Steven is experience . Photography is his speciality. He can tutor with structured Lessons from start to finish or customize exactly what you want to learn. At times I take him off path and he always remembers to take us right back. We’ve bounced between light room and photoshop. Patient, easy to listen to and smart. 100% recommended

Above and Beyond

Steve was great. Very patient and knowledgeable. He gave me a lot of good information and the time flew by. Looking forward to our next session. As the they say “I didn’t know what I didn’t know”. And now I know!

Kevin, 1 lesson with Steven

Friendly, informative, and thorough

Steven walked me through photoshop. He made all of it make sense. For the first time I felt like "I got it." He is an amazing teacher. I will continue to use him.

Alice, 1 lesson with Steven

Knowledgeable and patient tutor.

Steve teaches Adobe Lightroom for a Dummy like me! Lightroom is NOT a user friendly program. You must BOSS it around to get what you want. Steve knows how to do this.

C. Dominick, 3 lessons with Steven

Focused on what I needed to learn

Steven went at my pace, was completely non-judgemental and made me feel comfortable about my skill level and helped me from there. He started with understanding what I needed to learn. He knows the subject, (Light Room) very well and was able to focus on me and get me started off onto the correct direction.

Followup on Wednesday's Zoom session

Because of his slow, clear, and excellent use of the English language that I understand, I was able to grasp what he was trying to show me the details of LRC that has giving me problems in the past. I really think we "clicked" throughout the entire lesson.

Tutor responded:

Thanks, Howard, looking forward to next time.

Great tips!

Steven gave great tips to fine tune my Classic Lightroom skills. I have been using CLR for about a year and he showed me some great short cuts. I will use him again.

Bryan, 1 lesson with Steven

Knowledgeable and patient

I needed help getting started with moving a very large group of photos into the LIghtroom workflow. We're navigating through what may be a hardware problem on my end. Steven has kept in touch and offered advice on the potential hardware problem, which of course is above and beyond tutoring on Lightroom itself. I'm looking forward to solving the hardware issue and getting on with editing my photos. Really appreciate Steven's patience and guidance at this early stage and will be working with him on improving my photos.

Sean, 10 lessons with Steven

Very knowledgeable

Great guy! I needed help with sun flare and haze with a few photos i had taken. He walked me through how to dehaze and systemically edit sun flare on multiple subjects. He was super clear and relatable. I learned so much from him in the short time that we spent together.

Tracy, 2 lessons with Steven

Very good Teacher!
