Photoshop Basics: Breakdown for Beginners

Photoshop Basics: Breakdown for Beginners

Your starting point for editing in Photoshop without the confusion.

If Photoshop has always felt like too much — too many panels, too many tools, no idea where to start — this course is for you. Breakdown for Beginners walks you through every essential tool and technique in plain language, with on-screen demonstrations you can actually follow. No guessing. No jumping between random YouTube tutorials. Just a clear, logical path from “I have no idea what I’m doing” to editing with real confidence.

This is the course I wish I had when I first opened Photoshop.

What You’ll Learn

• Layers, Masks & Adjustments — The foundation of everything in Photoshop. Once these click, the whole program makes sense. You’ll understand all three before this course is done.
• Essential Tools for Portrait Editing — The exact tools working portrait photographers use on every session, taught the way professionals actually use them, not just what the buttons do.
• A Repeatable Editing Workflow — Not a one-time follow-along, but a workflow you can use on every portrait, family, and outdoor session going forward.
• Self-Paced Video Lessons with One Year of Access — Work through it on your schedule, come back when you need a refresher, and never feel rushed.
