What You'll Learn

Core Editing Tools & Interface Walkthroughs

Get comfortable with Lightroom from the ground up. We’ll show you exactly what every slider, panel and tool does — and more importantly, when and why to use them. No jargon. No guesswork. Just clear instruction designed to give you editing confidence from Day One.

Crop, Straighten & Fix Composition

Learn how to clean up your images post-shoot. You’ll discover how to crop for better framing, straighten wonky horizons, and adjust aspect ratios for web, print, or social media. These tools are simple but powerful — and they’ll instantly upgrade how your photos look.

Light, Colour & Detail Adjustments

Understand how to take dull, flat images and bring them to life with subtle but powerful enhancements. You’ll master exposure, contrast, clarity, vibrance, shadows, highlights, sharpening, and white balance — all while keeping your photos natural and polished.

Presets, Brushes & Local Adjustments

Speed up your workflow and add creative control using Lightroom’s presets, radial filters, brushes, and masking tools. You’ll learn how to selectively enhance parts of your image without affecting the whole thing — perfect for skies, skin tones, and tricky lighting.

Lightroom on Mobile & Syncing Across Devices

We’ll show you how to use Lightroom Mobile to edit on the go, apply the same techniques from desktop to phone, and sync your photos seamlessly across devices. Whether you’re travelling, commuting or just prefer working from your tablet, you’ll never miss a creative moment.

iPhotography courses allow you to learn at your own pace, and you can always go back over a lesson when you need to. The 'Skill Track' modules are very focused on one topic and are easy to follow.

Thank you so much for your support in helping me not only learn my camera as I start this new venture (I am really new at this). Without this encouragement and support, I don't think I would have seen my photo here. I aspire to take such beautiful photos as so many of you.

I joined iPhotography around 8 years ago. From that time I think I am very fortun (seems to be a typo, probably meant "fortunate”) to be a member of iPhotography. I learned so many things from that time, which helped me to become a better photographer and get many international awards.

I have started the Landscape course and surprised what good value for money it is and how much I learn in each module, plenty of examples and not too lengthy for busy people. Love the encouragement feedback from iPhotography community members and sharing images. Makes courses that are on-line feel face-face. Competitions keep me encouraged to practice more.

I’ve done loads of landscape photos for people before... done postcards and photos etc so didn’t expect to panic as much as I just did when someone asked me to photograph their dog 😂 Good job I’ve done that section of the portrait course... it was weird because all the prep stuff just came out of my mouth like second nature... we need to set up a call and chat about location, the kind of shots you want any props you want to use, time of day and all that...! I’ll likely realise I’ve missed something at some point but thank you iPhotography because I’d never have rattled all that off as easy before I did the course... if at all!!

Really wanted to catch the black and white webinar live today but didn’t make it home in time. I just watched it and there's some great info. I'm always confused on what makes a good blackand white shot. This really helped, thanks!

Frequently Asked Questions

This course is designed with beginners in mind. Emily walks you through every key tool, step-by-step, using real-world examples that make complex edits simple and approachable.

The course has been created using Lightroom Classic. Most features of Lightroom are virtually identical in all versions (Classic and CC Mobile), so no matter which version you have, we should have you covered!

But there also dedicated lessons that covers Lightroom CC (mobile and desktop apps/software)

We suggest that you’ll need a subscription Lightroom Classic via Adobe Creative Cloud to follow the course.

You’ll get to watch us work on a wide variety of photos in the course, ranging from portraits to landscapes. But you don’t have to stick to the RAW files provided. Feel free to use your own unedited images to follow along in each lesson. This way you’re learning and getting through your photo editing backlog at the same time!

You can view and review this Lightroom course training materials indefinitely, like an on-demand channel. You have lifetime access to the course from any laptop, PC, Mac or tablet device.

It’s fully cross-compatible with all devices.

If for ANY reason (or no reason at all) within 30-days you decide to return your course purchase, our support team will happily provide you with a refund.

No hassle. No questions asked. You are completely protected.
