Acknowledgements
The folks at Rocky Nook have been so supportive and have made this project
as pleasant as it could possibly be. Thanks for being the most gracious pub-
lishers and for having such sharp eyes. Jimi DeRouen, you’re a great human
to work with!
Hearty thanks go to my students. There have been many of you who’ve
shaped not only my teaching, but my humanity as well. You make it obvious
that I found the right career. I wrote this book to be a complement to the
time you spend in my classroom. I hope you and the educators who use this
book find it a means to great creative ends.
Many thanks as well to the supportive folks at Adobe, like Marc Madenwald
and Deborah Prewitt, who really look out for their training partners.
Craig Swanson, the welcome prod I need so often, your energy is terrify-
ing like a good carnival ride. Thanks for the many opportunities and the
reminders that they’re there.
To my fellow teachers, Jennifer, Navin, David, David, and David! (That
would be Mr. Johnson, Mr. Julian, and Mr. Moise.) You have each done
much to nourish, inspire, and encourage me.
Of course I must thank the other great teachers in my life, and of life.
Colin Fleming, not a day goes by that I don’t smile with a thought of you.
That’s a great gift: especially on those hard days.
To Anne and Don Fraga, for use of the “writing room”, and the rest of the
house, for a few months. Although I have to say your daughter is the greatest
gift of all!
And that leads to my wife, Carla Fraga. Since you’re the best and greater part
of all we do together, gratitude is not enough. At least many of your lovely
images grace these pages, fortunately for us all. Thank you and happy tenth
anniversary, just a little early.

Introduction
In some ways, digital technology has fundamentally changed
photography and printing. Photographers have almost
unlimited options to achieve the precise image that they
intend. Printing has become infinitely more flexible and
pushed closer to the control of the image creator—you. The
level of control at our disposal now exceeds even some of the
most powerful darkroom techniques used in the past. This
power and flexibility is dazzling, even confusing, to many.
The Adobe Photoshop products are some of the most
complex programs many of us will ever use. There is a reason
“Photoshop” has become a verb! Despite that, my goal is
to present them in a reasonably accessible way. Although
we are provided with thousands of complex techniques for
editing images, most users (and most images) don’t need
all of that complexity. In fact, only a few steps are needed
to get the vast majority of images to shine. In this book, I’ll
introduce you to the processes that I and my students have
found most valuable: from organizing a large image library,
through editing density, contrast, and color, to more detailed
processing like converting images from color to black & white
and the sharpening of images, and basic retouching. The
workflow discussed is complete, but I will not discuss the more
bizarre techniques common to the Photoshop marketplace.
In this book’s two sections, you’ll find both the
foundational concepts and vocabulary you’ll need to
use the software discussed, and the pieces you’ll need
to build your full photographic workflow from capture
through print or online output. Let’s get working!
Some helpful conventions are used throughout the book. Important terms Photoshop
are in bold type, making it easier to skim through for specific information.
Conventional notation for choosing items from a menu is used through- For processes that involve Photoshop

The icons and vocabulary used in the application are used in this book

one invented for Adobe Camera Raw) will appear on pages which feature For “developing” images in

At the heart of modern photographic workflows are the Adobe® Photoshop® the processes discussed.
family of products. From the online and very simple Photoshop Express,
to the capable but still entry-level Photoshop Elements, to the fully capable
Photoshop and Photoshop Extended, which includes tools for scientific
analysis, 3-D, and video. There is also the photography workflow tool,
Adobe Photoshop Lightroom. In this book, I’ll outline my workflow steps
in Photoshop CS5 Extended (released April 30, 2010) and its companions
Bridge and Adobe Camera Raw 6, as well as Lightroom 3 so you can decide
which is most appropriate to the work you do.
For the most part, the workflows and techniques described in this book
still work well with the previous versions of these products.
