I'm Amanda! And learning Photoshop was a key skill that immediately levelled up my work

I used to avoid Photoshop like the plague. I stuck with Lightroom because it felt safer, easier... less overwhelming. Photoshop? It felt s foreign. Too many tools. Too many buttons. I was convinced it wasn’t “for me.”

But once I finally dove in?

My photos levelled up FAST.
And I was creating the kind of work I always DREAMED about creating.

Because I would look at other creator's work and wonder... "How the hell did they make it look SO clean and pro?"... well, I learned how to do that and now I'm sharing those techniques with YOU here. 

That’s why I created this course, to take the overwhelm out of Photoshop and teach it in a way that actually makes sense for product photographers.

I break it down step-by-step so you're not just copying what I do, you’re understanding why it works.

So whether you’re editing skincare jars, lipstick swatches, or sparkling cans of soda… you’ll know exactly how to make your images look high-end and client-ready every damn time.
