What members say

Great tutorial with loads of great info, well shot and all clear and easy to understand.
Robert · Commercial Beer Photography: Lighting & Retouching
I love the fine art style and admire Gemmy's work tremendously. She gives great instruction on how to achieve her look. It is worth gold.
Sam · Fine Art Portraiture, Styling, & Retouching
Could not ask for a better product. Absolute perfection from start to finish.
Clayton H. · Natural Light Portraiture & Retouching
Straight to the point. A lot of practical advice. Sufficiently technical. Lots of inspiration to try new lighting, posing and building a photoshoot from the ground up.
Ricardo G. · Dramatic Portraiture Lighting Styling & Retouching
Quality content all around!!
Yusri O. · The Science of Color: Creative Decisions & Editing
Absolutely brilliant! I had no idea the way I was color grading was so bad for my photos. I’ve completely implemented this new way of grading into my workflow.
Christian R. · Commercial Retouching Workflow: Adv Color Grading
Sef goes through the process of professional retouching step by step. He explains each step of the process including possible problems you may encounter. One of the best workflow retouching tutorials on the market.
Richard C. · Commercial Retouching Workflow: Products & Apparel
Quality and diversity! Love this pack! There is a lot of options to choose from and they are all extremely good quality.

Questions

Before you join

How do I access the course after buying?
Every course streams in the PRO EDU app at learn.proedu.com. Use the email from your order; the ‘forgot password’ link on the login page sets your password the first time.
Is this course included in the Pro Plan?
Yes. Every course on this page with the Free for Members badge is included, along with every other course, plugin, and asset pack.
What software do I need?
The software for this course is listed above the lesson list; most courses use Photoshop or Lightroom, and the lessons show the exact version.
Can I cancel?
You can cancel at any time before your renewal date, from your account page or at proedu.com/pages/manage-membership. Cancelling stops the next renewal; your access continues through the end of the term you have already paid for. You do not need to contact us or give notice, and there is no minimum number of payments.
What does the Pro Plan include?
An active Pro Plan gives you streaming access to every course in the PRO EDU library, along with the plugins, actions, presets, and asset packs marked as included, plus new releases added during your subscription. Access is delivered through the PRO EDU app at learn.proedu.com and is for your personal use.
Do you offer refunds?
PRO EDU does not issue refunds on digital products or subscriptions. For courses we offer a 30-Day exchange policy and store credit to be used on any digital product available for purchase. For subscriptions, payments already made, including the current term, are not refunded — if something has gone wrong, email support@proedu.com and we will make it right.
Should I buy a course or join the Pro Plan?
Buying a single course lets you download that course’s files and resources for your own use while your access is active. The Pro Plan instead gives streaming access to every course in the library, plus the plugins, actions, presets and asset packs marked as included, and new releases added during your subscription.
