I’m excited to be joining Ryan Smith, Mark Denney, and Lindsay Zingg for a weekend of creative exploration in Lake Tahoe! This retreat is designed to refine your editing skills, streamline your workflow, and reconnect you with your creative vision.
Join Julieanne Kost for a quick tour of seven recent updates in Camera Raw, including the new Blemish Removal, improvements to the Vectorscope, and Generative Expand. Along the way, she’ll cover the new Render to DNG option, bidirectional linear gradients with independent feathering, Full Screen Presentation mode, and Autofocus Point overlays for select Canon, Nikon, and Sony cameras. Whether you’re refining skin tones, expanding your canvas non-destructively, or evaluating color, these features will help you work faster and with more flexibility.
Discover what’s new in Lightroom Classic 15.4 with Julieanne Kost. In this video, you’ll learn about eight new features and updates designed to improve your editing workflow.
Discover the latest innovations in Adobe Camera Raw 18.4 in the video below. See how the next-generation Select Subject technology delivers dramatically improved mask accuracy for challenging subjects, explore the new bidirectional Linear Gradient for more flexible local adjustments, learn how the powerful new Vectorscope provides an objective way to evaluate and refine color, and more!
In this tutorial, Julieanne Kost walks through three updates in Camera Raw: new Edge and Feather refinement sliders for AI masks (including Sky, Subject, Background, Landscape, and People masks), Color Grading controls now available within local masking for targeted creative adjustments, and an extended Temperature Range for White Balance. Follow along to see how these enhancements give you more precision and creative control over your edits.
Photoshop’s April release brings a mix of powerful AI upgrades and practical workflow improvements to help you work faster and smarter. In this video, Julieanne presents a clear walkthrough of updates like Distraction Removal, Dynamic Text, Rotate Object, and Layer Clean-Up. She also covers the latest generative AI enhancements, including Instruct Edit, third-party model reference image support, Firefly Boards integration, and how track and view Generative Credits.
In this video, Julieanne walks through the new features in Adobe Camera Raw 18.3. You’ll learn how to make depth-based selections, correct anamorphic images, reduce wide-angle distortion, and apply film-inspired presets. These updates provide more control for both technical corrections and creative adjustments.
In the video below, Julieanne explores how photographers can use Adobe Firefly Boards to generate variations, remix images, and quickly test ideas. Learn to build composites, organize projects, create client mockups, and collaborate—all while moving faster through ideation, exploration, and previsualization.
In the video below, you’ll learn how to install and use two time-saving presets—one for landscapes and one for people—that instantly generate detailed masks so you can jump straight to editing.
These two presets don’t make any adjustments to your images—they’re designed to save you time by automatically creating multiple masks with a single click. However, you can make your own adjustments to any of the masks and then create your own custom presets.
In the video below, Julieanne demonstrates how to transform still images into visually engaging videos. You’ll learn how to choose the right model, use first and last frames to guide motion, incorporate reference images, and make edits to refine your results. Along the way, Julieanne also provides several examples to help you understand the possibilities and confidently start creating your own animated videos.
In the video below, Julieanne walks through the Prompt to Edit feature in Adobe Firefly. She explains how to choose the right model, craft an effective prompt, and decide when it’s best to edit a rendered image versus starting fresh with a new prompt. Along the way, she shares practical examples to help you better understand your options and get the results you’re looking for.
In this Introduction to Prompting with Adobe Firefly, Julieanne shares a simple framework to help you turn your ideas into clear prompts for generative AI. You’ll see how giving specific, thoughtful direction can make your results more accurate and predictable. I’ll walk you through three easy steps: set the overall direction, describe the important details, and protect what shouldn’t change—so you can confidently guide your edits and get the results you want.
