HOW TO PRINT - The ULTIMATE Guide to Achieving the PERFECT PRINT

, , , , , ,

Watch this recording of a LIVE Broadcast following the launch of my long awaited HOW TO PRINT course for a Behind the Scenes look at what went into making the course content, tips, additonal learning and Q&A

Well my HOW TO PRINT course has officially launched, and I don't care whether it's right or wrong to say this but ... "I'm Bloomin Proud of myself"

As of today the course has over 7 hours of content which, I hasten to add, is the least amount of content that there will ever be as I'm looking forward to keeping this well and truly up to date for everyone that has and does enroll.

The support I've had has been incredible from close friends and people across the industry being willing, sometimes at short notice, to open their company doors and allow me in to do some filming and also them jumping on to a video conference to record an interview covering a certain topic relating to printing.

SPECIAL THANKS goes to Dominic Gurney from Epson UK who as well as freely sharing his vast knowledge has driven considerable mileage (more than once) to pass on some kit for me to use.

Everyone at Permajet for their constant support from Day 1 when I was planning this course. Inviting me into their offices, filming, lunch, paper, interviews and so much more. Outstanding!

Dr Chris Bai from BenQ whom I'm proud to call a friend and everyone at BenQ; always there and always willing to help and provide support. When I first met Dr Bai he said that his purpose was to educate me about colour and display technology and he sure has!

The BRILLIANT people at Digitalab who invited up to their offices for 2 days when I first started working on the course. Nothing was and is too much trouble for them and for that and all they do I am so incrediby grateful.

The great folks at Calibrite for helping out in so many ways providing kit, promotion, technical advice and information and always reaching out to see if I need any support.

Trevor Williams of West Street Picture Framing who opened his shop on a day it was ordinarily closed just so that I could do some filming of him showing how to correctly add a print onto backing board and add them into a mount for display.

MASSIVE thank you to everyone that has Pre Ordered the Course so far. I'm genuinely blown away at the response but also at the trust placed in me to provide a course that you're willing to hand over some of your hard earned money for. It is VERY much appreciated. (your course content will be available from 6pm UK today)

... and finally my wife Anne who does everything she can to make it easier for me to get on with getting on. Because of her support I don't have to think about anything other than getting this done and hand on heart I wouldn't have been able to get it finished and produced what I have without her.

This might sound a bit dramatic ... I mean it's 'only' a course that I've put together but heck, I've worked hard on this. I wanted to make this THE go-to course for printing so that others can get their share of the pleasure I get when seeing an image that you took the time and effort to get out and capture, retouch and finally hold in your hands.

I have a Print FOR SALE in a local Picture Framers 😃

,

Now THIS is a BIG DEAL for me because I’m primarily a Portrait Photographer and only started taking photographs of landscapes and seascapes during the Covid Pandemic … because I couldn’t take portraits.

So to now have a print FOR SALE in a local Picture Framers ( West Street Picture Framing in Axminster, Devon ) feels FANTASTIC 😃

This all came about just last week when I was with the owner of the Framers, Trevor Williams, as he very kindly gave up his own time to open on a day when ordinarily he’d be closed so that we could film him for my upcoming HOW TO PRINT course, showing how to put prints onto backing board for display and also how to put prints into a mount.

Now I’ve been very fortunate over the years to have had my images appear in magazines, books and on television but the thrill never decreases and seeing the framed print FOR SALE and on display in the shopfront window was such a good feeling.

I'd never considered selling prints because landscape and seascape is not something I’m known for because like I said I’m primarily a Portrait Photographer, so yeah it feels great that Trevor would suggest doing so; he also took care of everything with regards the printing and framing which unsurprisingly looks wonderful.

Of course the icing on the cake would be seeing it sell, so I’ll keep you posted 😉

Times Square by Bert Monroy | I'll Treasure this FOREVER!

, ,

This I will treasure forever !

Loving having this VERY special print on the wall in my 'temporary' office ; "Times Square, New York" Drawn and Painted using Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator by my friend, the INCREDIBLE Bert Monroy …

It’s hard to put into words how much it means to have this ; an iconic piece of art created by Bert … someone I followed from Day 1 when first I started out using Photoshop. I’ve learned so much from him that I used back when I would do more compositing work but that are techniques I still turn to today when retouching my photography.

Having presented on the same stage as Bert and having travelled to present at different locations around the world with him, I am both honoured and blessed to call him a friend.

LIVE BROADCAST

To see a close up of “Times Square” have a watch of this recording of a LIVE Broadcast I hosted with Bert as my Guest where he zooms in and out showing all of the details and explains some of the techniques used to create the final piece …

Newsletter Subscriber-Only Video Tutorials

Pretty much every week I host LIVE Broadcasts on my YouTube Channel and I really enjoy doing these; great guests, great interaction and I thrive on the buzz of being LIVE.

I also from time to time add some pre-recorded content onto my YouTube Channel such as short form tutorials, product reviews and so on … as I have done for years.

My new Newsletter seems to be really well received with it going out twice a month, but the one thing that I’ve not been 100% happy with about it, is that the information I include isn’t exclusive … so this I’m changing.

From now on with each Newsletter I am including Newsletter Subscriber-Only video tutorials; video tutorials that won’t be shared on my YouTube Channel or anywhere else for that matter.

I don’t take it for granted that people choose to subscribe and receive my FREE Newsletter especially when our inboxes get enough thrown at them each day anyway, and that there’s so many other people with the own newsletters too.

So I want / need to thank people, make it exclusive and give people a reason to firstly subscribe but secondly and most importantly, continue to do so. THIS is why my focus and how I feel about my YouTube Channel has shifted.

Don’t get me wrong, I love creating and sharing on YouTube, especially the LIVE content, and I will continue to do so, however my priority is that of people who choose to subscribe to my Newsletter and it’s for those people I will be putting all my effort into creating useful, timely, creative content for.

This content will, like I said, be short form Photography, Photoshop and Lightroom based video tutorials and also the occasional Newsletter Subscriber-Only Webinars, and the first one is available NOW …

In the first Newsletter Subscriber-Only video I go through my NEW Lightroom Portrait Retouching Workflow concentrating specifically on how I now do the Dodging (Lightening) and Burning (Darkening) side of things to give portraits much more depth and shape.

Oh and another BIG advantage of them being EXCLUSIVE and not on my YouTube Channel is that there are NO ANNOYING ADS! 😃

So, if you’d like to subscribe to my FREE Twice-Monthly Newsletter, be part of the community, keep updated, receive discounts and get access to subscriber-only tutorials / content, you can do so by simply adding your email address in the pop-up that might have appeared whilst you’ve been here, on the home page OR by clicking on the button below.

Hopefully see you there,
Glyn
