Teaching/Coaching is a great way to learn and that's why I have been doing Post-Processing workshops for a long time now. There has been an year that I had stopped doing these meet-ups or workshops, but now again finding time during the weekends to conduct these 1:1s or group workshops.
Every time I meet a Pro Photographer, I learn a lot about the real Photography workflows which helps me understand the overall Photo management and editing needs in Indian market. All this is an incremental process. I learn from these Photographers, include these inputs in my 2 days workshops and hence every new workshop is improved and better.
I would not shy away from accepting that many times, I come across situations where Photographers ask questions which sound unfamiliar, but with genuine efforts I realize the real connection between these softwares and the practical needs.
Recently I met a Fine Art Photographer in GK1, who had attended my workshop 3 years back at APEX Photography Academy. Now she had moved from Lightroom3 to Lightroom5, which added hell lot of confusion for her in Photo-management. So this weekend, we discussed Library module of Adobe Photoshop Lightroom in detail. This was first time, I got exposed to the fact that how this upgrade thing can be confusing for Photographers. Going forward I am going to add it to my module and would surely discuss upgrade aspect in workshops and 1:1s.
There were lot of questions which I tried to answer and will post these details on blog for benefit of other Indian Lightroomers. So watch this space for more on Adobe Photoshop Lightroom.
