Founder of Bring Your Own Laptop & Chief Instructor
instructorI discovered the world of design as an art student when I stumbled upon a lab full of green & blue iMac G3’s. My initial curiosity around using the computer to create ‘art’ developed into a full-blown passion, eventually leading me to become a digital designer and founder of Bring Your Own Laptop.
Sharing and teaching are a huge part of who I am. As a certified Adobe instructor, I've had the honor of winning multiple Adobe teaching awards at their annual MAX conference. I see Bring Your Own Laptop as the supportive community I wished for when I was first starting out and intimidated by design. Through teaching, I hope to bring others along for the ride and empower my students to bring their stories, labors of love, and art into the world.
True to my Kiwi roots, I've lived in many places, and currently, I reside in Ireland with my wife and kids.

Hi there, my name is Dan Scott...
and together, you and me, are going to take your photos...
and transform them into beautiful dynamic images using Adobe Lightroom.
First up, who is this guy, what does he know?
Well, I am an Adobe Certified Instructor...
and I've been working as a professional retoucher...
and a kind of creative professional for about 16 years now...
kind of balancing professional work with teaching that whole time...
I've won multiple Adobe teaching awards, and recently...
I crossed over 1 million students for my online courses, like this one...
let's talk about what's in the course.
You'll learn best practices for white balance temperature and color correction...
we'll unlock masking together...
this will be a real turning point in the class...
where we really get our images to flourish...
we'll try and cover all types of photography, portrait, landscape...
wedding, night, wild life, automotive, event, architectural, drone...
travel, product, food, Dan, and dress up...
what? That is totally a genre.
You learn how to color grade like a professional, simple grades...
and then we'll move into more distinctive powerful color grades...
to make your images really pop...
your retouch images, making skin smoother...
eyes and teeth whiter, make hair, eyes, and lips stand out in portraits...
need to remove parts from an image, no worries, Lightroom does this easily...
do you have a video that needs color grading as well, boom...
the same tools that we learn for photos can work for videos.
We'll even learn when and how it's appropriate...
to jump out to Adobe Photoshop...
do you have noisy and grainy images, don't worry...
after this course you'll know the tools and techniques used to remove it all...
need to work fast, you'll learn how to find and how to use...
the best presets, Luts, and profiles...
editing is exciting for sure...
but just as important is Lightroom's amazing organizational abilities...
quickly sorting, comparing, searching, grading, and backing up your images.
Now this course is aimed at people brand new...
to photo editing and photography in general...
we'll assume nothing and we'll start right at the beginning...
and work our way through step by step...
you might be using the biggest fanciest camera known to man...
or you might be a photographer using your cell phone...
that's mostly held together with sellotape...
it doesn't matter, Lightroom is amazing for both.
We'll be using the newer Lightroom CC in this course...
not the older classic version...
though most of the techniques will cross from one to the other...
but we'll be focusing on Lightroom CC desktop.
I set class projects throughout the course so that you can practice your skills...
and develop your own unique images, ready for your portfolio.
If you've never opened up Adobe Lightroom...
or you've opened it and struggled a little bit...
come with me, and together, you and me, will take your good images...
and transform them into beautiful dynamic photographs using Adobe Lightroom...
see you in class...
and I promise that I will only use the words, make it pop...
I think, 48 times in the course, promise, that's it...
49, including that one.
