Best way to learn all parts of Lightroom
Reid T was great to work with on Lightroom especially setting up the fastest ways to import into a folder structure and collections. I found him very patient and diligent in getting my Lightroom properly set up which was all done over the internet and phone. I live in Oregon and he lives in California. I highly recommend Reid. He will not let you down.

great teacher!
Reid helped me to set up and organize photos in the Lightroom and we’re working on editing photos. I’m very happy I started working with Reid.

Lightroom Tutorial
I can't state enough how enjoyable and productive my Lightroom tutorial went with Reid. He responded promptly to inquires and provided helpful study materials in advance of our session. He showed up on time and during our two hour session demonstrated a thorough understanding of all aspects of Lightroom. He also offered numerous suggestions on improving my catalog setup as well as using some of the newer processing tools in Lightroom. Again, I very highly recommend Reid.

Great experience!
I had issues with organization within my Lightroom. Reid help me put all of my work into one place making my future workflow so much easier. He also help me locate raw files that I could not find for months due to my poor organization. I can highly recommend him to learn more about this software and to better your practice and work flow within Lightroom 👍🏽

Excellent
Reid covered a lot of teritory in our first session but my notes and his handouts are making me understand how to really use LRC. I did not know what I did not know!! Personable and patient. He knows his stuff and enjoys teaching it. Highly recommended.

Easy to work with and patient!
Reid and I have been working through reorganization and workflow in LR and he has been amazing! It would have taken me years to accumulate the progress we achieved in a few hours. I would definitely recommend him to other students.

Working with Reid
Thanks to Reid for helping me to reorganize my messy files today. During the process, he cleared up much of my confusion and answered all my questions, mainly about importing and filing my images. Reid is very knowledgeable about computer operation systems and Lightroom, and worked out a new storage plan for my files and located my images in no time. One thing I really appreciate is Reid’s preparation work before we actually met up on line. He has a thorough questionnaire designed for his students to get a rough assessment of their level and needs. We also exchanged quite a few messages regarding expectations for our meeting. Therefore when we actually started the session, there was no time lost, we got right to the point. Reid has been very patient with me, we actually ran over an extra hour, and I do appreciate it. His explanations are clear and right to the point. He is very easy and pleasant to work with! Reid is also very prompt at replying messages, great communication! I am looking forward to working with him in another session next week.

Organized!
My LR Classic's stored images were all over the place with hundreds of duplicates distributed on a desktop hard drive and external drives. So over nearly two hours of intense work, Reid got it all organized and the many dupes identified. In the process I also learned something about how LR Classic organizes its library. Thorough, willing to explain and re-explain, and effective.
