Sound familiar?
You're still editing at midnight — and your galleries still don't look the way you imagined.
You finished the session buzzing. But then you sat down at your computer, opened Lightroom, and the doubt crept in. Too warm. Too flat. Too much. Not enough. You spent hours trying to get it right — and you're still not sure it is.
No consistent style
Every gallery looks different. You can't figure out why your presets never quite land the way you expect.
White balance woes
Skin tones look off, colours shift between shots, and fixing one thing seems to break everything else.
Editing is eating your life
Hours per session, late nights, a backlog that never shrinks. This isn't the freedom you signed up for.
Delivery stress
Exporting, organising, proofing galleries — it's a chaotic mess that drains you every single time.
This course is for you if...
- You're using Adobe Lightroom Classic (or planning to)
- Your edits lack consistency across a gallery
- You're struggling to correct skin tone and jaundice naturally
- You want to create and use your own signature preset
- You're spending way too many hours per session
- Your images are coming out flat and you don't know why
- You want a workflow you can actually repeat — every single time
This course is NOT for you if...
- You're looking for a shortcut — we're building skills that last
- You want advanced Photoshop fine art retouching (Lightroom only here)
- You're not willing to practise and adapt what you learn
- You're using Lightroom CC, not Lightroom Classic
Your Educator
I used to edit until midnight too.
After 14 years as a newborn photographer — and winning AIPP Newborn Photographer of the Year — I can tell you the thing that changed everything for me wasn't a better camera or a fancier lens.
It was my workflow.
Once I built a system inside Lightroom that was repeatable, efficient, and actually mine — my editing time dropped dramatically. My galleries became consistent. And I stopped dreading the post-production side of my business.
That's exactly what I'm going to teach you in this course. Not complex. Not overwhelming. Just a clear, simple system that works — every time.
What's inside
22 Step-by-Step Videos.
One Clear System.
Everything is self-paced, structured, and designed to be immediately applicable to your sessions. Watch once, implement straight away.
Streamline Your Workflow
Set up your storage system, organise your files, and create a foundation that makes every session faster from the very first click.
Master the Adjustments Panel
Finally understand what every slider actually does — and why. Build confidence and stop guessing your way through an edit.
Nail White Balance Every Time
Consistent, accurate skin tones across every image in a gallery. No more warm-cold inconsistencies from shot to shot.
Jaundice Correction
The go-to fix that every newborn photographer needs. Natural, subtle, and repeatable — without destroying the warmth of your image.
Natural Skin Retouching
Smooth skin the right way — without the plastic, over-edited look. Learn the techniques that keep your images looking like real life.
Create Your Own Signature Preset
Build a preset that is truly yours — matched to your shooting environment, your style, and your clients. Never rely on someone else's look again.
Beautiful Black & White
Develop moody, timeless B&W images with depth and wow factor — not flat, washed-out conversions.
Batch Editing & Export
Work smarter across a full gallery. Batch editing hacks, export settings, and proofing gallery workflows that save hours every week.
Consistency Across a Full Gallery
Deliver galleries where every image belongs together. Build a cohesive, professional body of work your clients will rave about.
