Fundamentals of Photography
John Greengo
Powerful and realistic retouching tools
You will learn how to use frequency separation technique in Adobe Photoshop® to adjust, and swap out elements to enhance images. You can combine elements from different images to enhance a single image. For example, taking skin from one image to use on a blown out skin image. By separating the colors and details you can work on one element without affecting the other.

Lisa is brilliant. This FS class is an excellent complement to her other FS class. Absolutely worth the investment of time and money and attention.
Lisa is all over the place but in a good way. I love her enthusiasm, she clearly loves her job and she makes you want to be a better photoshopper. Just see it, try it and see it again, that worked for me.
Wow, what a great class, another one by Lisa Carney! This one kind of blew my mind in places, all the clever methods she shows. After watching the first couple chapters I paused the video because I suddenly realized I could use this method to fix a problem I had in one of my composites (removing some kids' sidewalk chalk patterns from some pavement) Lisa Carney is fantastic about showing the way she thinks, how she goes about solving problems. I personally find this very empowering, it makes me inspired to think creatively about tough photoshop issues I'm grappling with in my own projects. She says she does not provide a cookie cutter formula for solving a problem, the reason is the problems we'll be solving are different. What she's providing is way more valuable, it's the way of thinking about attacking a problem. I found the course to be paced perfectly. It assumes some base knowledge which is covered elsewhere. But she provides all the information you need here, you just may need to watch the videos a few times (and you'll pick up new stuff on each watching). I ended up joining the CreativeLive annual subscription, literally because I wanted to watch all of Lisa Carney's classes - I find that she packs in so much extra useful information, it almost doesn't matter what she's "officially" speaking about, I have found I will always come away amazed and enriched with her insights!
I loved the class..... this tools will save me so much time while retouching!!!! Thank you Lisa, for sharing your skills and knowledge with us!!!
Lisa Carney is masterful. What a gem!
Another awesome class. She goes fast but if you have the pre-requisite skills and knowledge you can follow her fairly easily. I have all of her classes and by the last few lessons in most classes I usually find that I get lost only because my brain has been saturated by then - that's the beauty of being able to watch it over and over!
I think it would have been great - if only the streaming had worked : /
Fast paced and great education! Not for the beginner, but definitely worth your time to learn these techniques and speed up your editing. I love Lisa's handouts, very visual and detailed. And I love being able to rewatch Lisa's videos when I get stuck.
This was such an amazzzzing course! Now that I have a much better understanding of the actions I use, I can start tweaking them to make them better for what I do. I can't wait to start experimenting with them!
