Fast Track To Photoshop: How to make it work for you and your practice

Photoshop has been instrumental in my journey as a garden and landscape designer. From starting out exclusively with a pen and paper and a stubbornness to never use any digital software, I will take you through my journey and how my use of photoshop has opened many doors. Communicating innovative ideas to clients, marketing and social media, a role on BBC's Your garden Made Perfect and exhibiting on main avenue at RHS Chelsea flower show 2023. Now working on pioneering residential developments & community projects across the UK and beyond and continuing to push the boundaries in private gardens.

This lecture is aimed at practicing garden designers or students who may feel a little overwhelmed or disconnected when it comes to digital software and communicating their ideas. I will be showing you my own methods with lots of hints and tips I've discovered along the way.
