Enhance November 2011

In June this year, we excitedly launched our latest Eye Candy Workshop – Enhance.  This is an intensive  three week online workshop designed for the beginner to intermediate photographer wanting to explore digital processing using Photoshop.   We’re running it again this November and registrations are now open!

Some of the topics covered will include:.

Setting up your Workspace
Menus and Tools
Creating a logical workflow
Layers, Masking and Blend Modes
Identifying and resolving image issues
Working with skin-tones
Easy image enhancement
Working with Photoshop Actions
Developing a consistent editing style
Correct cropping and resizing
Shortcuts
Adding polish
Color settings
Creatively displaying your images online

The workshop is designed to run at your own pace with comprehensive videos and written tutorials uploaded daily.  You will also have access to an interactive forum to share images, ask questions and receive peer feedback.    Co-facilitated by Fran Mackenzie, Enhance explores a variety of Photoshop methods, tips and tricks based in a logical workflow to give you the best possible editing outcomes with your images.  

The Enhance workshop will run in November 2011 and is $345 AUD per person.  We are able to offer payment plans for those interested.  Places are limited.  If you would like to register your place, you may do so here.  Previous Eye Candy students do not need to register and may go directly to the purchase page here.  If you have further questions, please email Fran at info@eyecandyworkshops.com.

Testimonials from Enhance Participants, June 2011:

I feel like this has been one of the most important photography workshops I have taken to date.  I am amazed at how much I learned and how “unlocked” photoshop feels to me. I had so many “aha! THAT’S how you do it!” moments I can’t even count.   I was extremely impressed with the amount of information shared with us, the way it was presented, and how absolutely thorough it felt (to me). Once again, everyone was very friendly and helpful. :) I really enjoyed the videos, they really brought the material in the modules together and helped with the practice. Thank you, Fran and Sheye for another wonderful and meaningful workshop!   Catherine Runyan

I actually feel comfortable using Photoshop now. I don’t quake with fear when I open it any more…! The videos made HEAPS of difference to me. Early on I had the videos on the laptop and I had PS open on my desktop and I followed along. It was perfect. It was so nice to put voices to the words and faces too!     Jane Dando

The modules and the videos were very informative and presented in a way that made it fun to learn. Sheye & Fran, you are both superstars at photography and Photoshop and i am extremely happy that i was able to participate in this workshop and learn from you both. Thank you so much!      Carissa Campbell

I liked that the learning was multi-faceted, with reading material, videos and tasks. This meant that applying the knowledge was much easier than just reading and assuming you understood what was meant to happen… Thank you for being so generous with your knowledge and allowing others to share in your thoughts and workflows. I am so much more efficient, skillful and knowledgeable on PS and know that doing the workshop will enhance my life in so many ways – better photos, less stress, more free time… and the list goes on. xx    Jodie Vass

I found everything about the workshop to be relevant and useful. All Eye Candy workshops have a great feel to them and a wonderful supportive atmosphere.   It is great that we can all learn from each others questions and the fact that responses from the two of you were so prompt, there was a real sense of momentum. I am thrilled with what I have learned and to have a fantastic printed resource sitting in my bookcase beside the computer is brilliant. Having seen the videos as well, I feel much more confident. Thanks so much for all you have taught me. I love growing as a person and the three Eye Candy Workshops I have done this year really have helped me grow as both a photographer and a woman. The friendships I have made are an added bonus to this wonderful experience.    Mish Mackay

Enhance has been nothing but inspiring and I cannot believe that you are both so helpful and willing to share. I love that about you!! I am happy to say since Evolve I have made some wonderful friendships and I am so proud to say that you are both set in stone in my photography journey x  Cassie Van Baak

The Enhance experience was just like other Eye Candy Workshops, where Sheye and Fran not only share so much new knowledge, but also provide such a kind and supporting environment to learn in. And as they say, like attracts like, and Eye Candy Workshops always seem to be filled with participants as lovely as the facilitators, and this truly makes it special : )   Sharlene Britton

We do hope you can join us!
Sheye & Fran xx

ps: Just a quick reminder that the Evolve Workshop begins on October 3rd.  We will be emailing all participants in the next couple of days so please keep an eye out!

   Heya Sheye,
   Yayness – This is a fab idea! I hear the beast (that is photoshop) is a tricky one to tame!? I hope to join in on another of your Enhance workshops once I’ve purchased/installed the beast itself! Coolio:)

   I say you are brilliant.
   I love the idea and I love that you do it. I would like to love that I do it too… your post came at just the time I needed the last thought before a decision needs to be made and gave me enough pause to ask if the carrot dangling in front of me is what I really truly want. And when I let myself think about it, I know it isn’t.
   Thanks Shea – your honesty is as always, refreshingly real!

   That sounds like so much fun! I would to have a sister to do this with….maybe I can find one….if not I need to do it anyway…I love just taking random pictures and meeting new people. I stayed at the beach BY MYSELF this summer for four whole days…first time in my 20 years of married life. It was such fun to talk to people and hear their stories. We girls just need this kind of thing, don’t we? :) So sweet!

   WOW how thrilled am I to have seen your fab interview in babiekins latest issue – and now to find that you also run workshops, double love :)
   Just wondered though if this is a workshop for someone who has been living in fear of PS and has not used it?
