Non-Destructive Editing<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Here at The Art of Retouching Studio, we\u2019re all about non-destructive workflows. This means that in order to properly edit an image, we use all methods that will allow us to make changes without actually damaging our original photo, just so we can go back and redo any adjustment seamlessly. In this kind of setup, making the most out of the LAYERS in Photoshop will mean the world to you once you start editing like a true pro.<\/p>\n

Order Matters<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Think of each layer as a sheet of tinted glass that you overlay on top of your image. Any changes made here don\u2019t affect your original photo, so each adjustment you make needs to be on a new separate layer, one on top of the other. This class will help you master and understand just how each layer works. Even if you already understand the basics of layers, I will show you an entirely new world of options that you likely never even knew existed. This class will give you all sorts of useful information to help you gain control over Photoshop.<\/p>\n
