STILL HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT LIGHTROOM 101
What is Lightroom?
Adobe Lightroom is a powerful post-processing program that gives you access to editing tools used by professional photographers all over the world! Lightroom is without a doubt my favourite post-production platform BUT there’s no denying it can be a total head scratcher! It’s complicated as hell and tough to navigate.
What is Lightroom 101 with Rachael Tagg?
Lightroom 101 with Rachael Tagg is a fuss-free, short and punchy online course that cuts to the chase and gives you everything you need to jump into editing with confidence.
Is this course only for photographers?
No, this course is designed for users of all types – anyone who takes photos will walk away with more knowledge on how to use Lightroom to enhance your images.
What if I’m taking photos on my phone only?
Even if you’re only taking photos on your iPhone, you will still find this course useful. Some sections won’t be relevant as they go into detail about dealing with large amounts of images, storing and sharing your images etc. However you will still find value refining your editing process.
How long will this course take me?
The great thing about this course is that you can learn from anywhere, anytime, as long as you have an internet connection and a computer or smartphone! The course is all done online via video tutorials – meaning, if you have a spare 20 minutes on the bus on the way to work or time waiting at the dentist, you could watch the videos while you wait! In terms of timing, it will take you a couple of hours to work through the training videos suite, but an infinite amount of time when it comes to practice and fine-tuning your editing style! The time it takes you to work through the exercises varies depending on you as a person. That’s the beauty of online learning. You can rewind, go back, re-watch parts, or zip through certain sections and spend longer on others. So really it’s up to you!
Why should I do this Lightroom course?
You can waste hours and hours sifting through an ocean of YouTube Lightroom tutorials before finding one that is concise and cuts to the chase. I’ve created a course that takes you through my tried and tested editing approach that you can implement everything you’ve learned straight away!

Which also means you have the freedom to learn from anywhere – whether that be in the comfort of your home or poolside in a scenic location – cocktail optional (as long as you have an internet connection of course).
Is the course released week by week?
No – as soon as you enrol, you have access to the whole course! So take as long as you like to complete it.

Lessons aren’t loading properly - what do I do?
Okay don’t panic. First of all check that your internet connection is on and isn’t just having a little moment (like we all know the Internet likes to do).

(Please make sure you are using the Classic version, and not CC – this one is cloud based and the interface looks different to how you will see mine on the screen in the course).
How long do each of the tutorials go for?
The videos are different lengths however generally they vary between 3 – 15 minutes.
