SUPER Helpful! Really enjoyed this course.

I come across many photo manipulation tutorials, trying to learn whatever I can to improve since I do a lot of photo editing/graphic design work at my workplace. But outside of work, it can be enjoyable as well, lol. However, I was blown away when I came across these training videos. The information was well put together and easy to follow, and I used tools that I hadn't really used to their full potential before! I genuinely appreciate Abbey and all her hard work putting this together. She opened my eyes to new techniques that I never considered before. So thank you so much!
