Demystifying Advanced Photoshop – Explore, Embrace, and Exploit
Terri Butler
Join us to learn Advanced Photoshop techniques with Terri Butler, as she shares how to unlock the power of photoshop and speed up our workflow. She is known for her award winning fine art photography.
The program is about moving beyond the basics of Photoshop and learning how to customize the application to meet your unique workflow, whether you are a photo editor or an artist. While someone can learn the basics of Photoshop in a few months, most masters know that you are always a student of Photoshop.

Terri describes herself as a creative more than just a photographer. Her website is branded “The Pixel Mixer” because it’s about capturing the digital pixels and making something creative with them.
Her journey into Photoshop Artistry has given her the opportunity to combine photography and art in creative ways without limits. “While rules of composition and lighting still apply, the additions of textures and embellishments to create works of surrealism and fantasy release me from the strict rules of perspective and depth of field required in typical image competition” she says.
Pre-meeting event:
