Smartphone Editing Course

Beginner Smartphone Editing For The Mom Who Wants to Document Her Family's Story

This is a smartphone editing course. This course is a budget friendly option for the mama who feels confident in her photo taking abilities, but wants to know how to edit her phone photos and give them that extra pop.

This online course uses tutorials to teach you how to edit using common (free) editing apps like Lightroom Mobile CC, VSCO, and Snapseed. My goal through this course is to teach you HOW to edit, not just how to copy an edit. I use video tutorials to teach you all of the why's behind editing, the thought process behind each step of editing, what to look for, and how you can use editing to get your photos where you want them.

What's inside:

- Full Lightroom Mobile CC, VSCO, and Snapseed video tutorials
- What each editing slider does, the difference between them, and how to use each one
- Multiple Editing Video Tutorials that range from extremely simple to more advanced
- Tutorial explaining white balance and how to adjust for the perfect photo
- How to make your whites true white and get rid of the ugly yellow tint found in photos
- How to achieve perfect skin tones
- How to achieve cohesive greens in outdoor/indoor photos
- How to achieve editing cohesion across all of your images
- How to use presets to their full potential

This course is specifically for smartphone editing. It is recommended that you have a good handle on how to use your smartphone camera and how to use light etc. It is a common misconception that editing is a fix all, but it isn't. You have to know how to take a good photo before you ever try to edit it, or your photos will continue to frustrate you. If you don't have a good handle on these foundational topics, the full Portraits of Us course is where I recommend starting.

Hello, Iā€™m Jessie!

I am a wife + mama and self-taught photographer. Im passionate about empowering fellow moms to to see how incredible their everyday is and to take beautiful pictures of their families. I teach moms how to apply the same techniques I use as a professional photographer to their own personal photography.

On April 30th, 2017, I took my first picture of my newborn rainbow baby.

My eyes filled with tears and I had this overwhelming feeling that every picture I had ever taken was in preparation for this ā€“ for him. He is what this creative part of my heart was made for.

I want this for you, mama. My heart is for you to have beautiful images of your babies to look back on so you can step into those moments over and over again & someday show your kids the story of their childhood.
