Colour & retouching

Yes. This individual photo editing lesson suits both beginners and photographers who already work with clients but want to improve their retouching and colour correction.

During the lesson, I explain the tools in detail and demonstrate the entire editing process step by step. You will learn to work with colour and skin retouching, even if you have never edited photos professionally.

The lesson can take place online or in person, depending on your location and which format suits you best.

Online lessons take place on Google Meet. I share my screen, explain every editing stage in detail and answer your questions in real time. This format works for photographers in any city or country.

In-person lessons are available to photographers in Gdańsk and nearby towns. We can meet at Kariroom studio or in a quiet setting over coffee and work through the full editing process together.

Whichever format you choose, the lesson is one-to-one and tailored to your experience and goals.

You will need 2 programs:

  Capture One — for selecting and colour-correcting RAW files;
  Photoshop — for professional retouching and finishing your photos

The one-to-one lesson lasts about 1.5 hours.

We work through the entire editing process in detail, from the original file to the finished image. You can ask questions as we work and get answers straight away.

Yes. After the lesson, you will receive a screen recording of the full editing process so you can revisit the material and review any stage.

After the lesson, you will receive my own tools to speed up your editing:
 • LUTs (presets) for Capture One;
 • Photoshop actions.

These materials help reduce editing time and make it easier to achieve a clean, polished, professional result.

Yes, we can use your own photos if you prefer. Send me 3–5 RAW files before the lesson.

For the best results, I recommend photos with good lighting, especially studio images. Editing can improve a photo and enhance dimension, colour and detail, but it cannot replace good lighting at the shoot.

If you already have good studio photos, we can work on those. If you are new to studio lighting or would prefer to focus entirely on editing, I recommend using my original RAW files. This lets you concentrate on colour correction and retouching without limitations caused by a particular shoot.

A strong photograph starts with light, and editing brings out its potential. If you are not yet confident with studio lighting, I recommend starting with my online course or in-person lighting training in Gdańsk, then moving on to editing. This sequence helps you progress towards professional results.

You will receive a recording after the lesson, so you can return to the material and review the editing stages whenever you need.

If more questions come up as you practise, you can book an individual consultation at a 50% discount. We will review your photos, editing mistakes and any difficulties you encounter after the lesson.
