Create Photo Manipulations in Photoshop like a pro

As I sit in front of my computer at 5:46 AM, I can’t stop thinking about you.

You, my future student.

Just like you, I had trouble using Photoshop to its full potential. I struggled with even the most basic commands and tools.

The prospect of creating a professional photo manipulation from scratch scared me like hell. I felt I was awfully unprepared for creating digital art. Wouldn’t you feel the same if you never created a photo manipulation before?

But you know what? (and sorry for saying it like this) I don’t care how scared or confident you are. It doesn’t matter how good you are at Photoshop and art.

I’m going to teach you essential and advanced Photoshop skills ALL the same.

You’re going to be better at Photoshop and digital art after watching this course. That’s a FACT.

If you’re human and have Photoshop installed – you’re ready to improve your editing skills.

What took me months and years to learn, you’ll learn in minutes. The best and most important professional techniques are yours for the taking

Now, naturally, you won’t become a Photoshop guru in 194 minutes (the length of this course).

But you will become a whole lot better at Photoshop and digital art. After watching this course you can start creating digital art on your own. And do so equipped with all the necessary tools and tricks of the trade.

Right now you’re probably asking yourself if I’m to be trusted. I might be sweet-talking to you, promising you the lion and giving you a wet kitten instead, right?

So let’s check out what people say about my tutorials & courses:

As someone very new to photoshop this was very easy to understand for the most part so I appreciate that you took into account complete newbies by providing things like shortcuts for doing stuff as well as detailed enough but concise explanations. I wish I could find more tutorials of this quality.

The only confusing part to me was the curve adjustment for the girl with the blue and red bit. I didn’t really understand that step but I think there is only so much you can explain without showing it through video or something.

Still an amazing tutorial.”

Who the heck am I and why should you listen to me?

My name is Adrian Scheff and I’ve been successfully teaching Photoshop for +10 years. Hundreds of thousands of students learned professional Photoshop with my gentle instructions.

But I’m not going to say I’m the best Photoshop teacher in the world, for 2 reasons:

1. I aim to be the best Photoshop teacher in the world. But I’ll never become one because the learning journey never ends. You teach me just as much as I teach you. I’m a good teacher, hopefully, a great one, and always improving.
2. The best Photoshop teacher in the world is also YOU. You are your best teacher. Just listen to my instructions. Apply what you learn. Experiment. If you do that, you’ll teach yourself things no one will be able to teach you.

Start using Adobe Photoshop to create amazing photo manipulations NOW!

Look, it doesn’t matter care if you’re a complete Photoshop noob. Or maybe you’re an advanced Photoshop user. It doesn’t matter. Even if you’re a Photoshop master, chances are you will pick up a thing or two.

Either way, this course is the perfect choice for you!

Why Photoshop and why photo manipulations?

Adobe Photoshop is the world’s #1 software solution for creating digital art. Even if you suck at drawing you can still create digital art with Photoshop. This type of digital art is called photo manipulation.

You take some images, combine them in novel ways and add special effects. The results can be mind-bogglingly beautiful.

Impress your partner, friends, family, or boss!

They’ll be speechless when they’ll see your Photoshop work! I remember when I showed a close friend some of my work. He literally said: “Duuuude, really? You did this? Nooooo... How?”

That felt very good, I can tell you that.

Follow this course, work, and experiment on your own, and you’ll also get to impress your close ones.

Create an inspiring and jaw-dropping photo manipulation, alongside me.

You’ll practice alongside me and create an amazing photo manipulation. Easy to use project files are included. By practicing as we go along you will boost your confidence.

You’ll absorb professional techniques and tricks by practicing alongside me.

Even if you have an old version (CS6, CS5, CS4) you can still learn professional techniques.

The techniques you’re going to learn will also work with older Photoshop versions. If you’re using a version released in this last decade, you’re good to go.

You can earn more money with these Photoshop skills!

Let’s not kid ourselves. Some of you might be using Photoshop to make a living. Some you might be thinking about making money with Photoshop.

Boosting your Photoshop and digital art skills will probably result in a bigger paycheck.
