Photo Editing in the Modern Age: Unlocking Creative Magic with AI
Thursday, February 19 | 6:00-8:00 p.m.


Join Fulton County native Todd Bailey, a nationally renowned and published photographer, for an immersive photo editing class designed for today’s creative world. Todd has worked with leading companies and organizations including Forbes Magazine, Merrill Lynch, Bank of America, Northwestern Mutual and The American Cancer Society.

In this class, you’ll learn a modern, efficient editing workflow that blends foundational techniques with today’s most powerful AI-assisted tools. The course is designed to help you edit faster, more confidently and more creatively while still maintaining a natural, professional look.



What You’ll Learn

Lightroom

  • Importing, organizing and culling photos efficiently
  • Global adjustments: exposure, color, contrast and tone
  • Creating clean, consistent edits across entire photo sets
  • Using masks and AI-powered selections for targeted adjustments
  • Developing a personal editing style and repeatable workflow

Photoshop

  • Retouching portraits naturally (skin, eyes, distractions)
  • Removing or refining unwanted elements
  • Advanced masking and compositing basics
  • Enhancing images with precision tools and AI-powered features
  • Knowing when to move from Lightroom to Photoshop and why

AI & Modern Editing Tools

  • How AI is changing photo editing (and how to use it responsibly)
  • Speeding up workflows without sacrificing authenticity
  • Turning strong photos into polished, professional images
  • Avoiding the “over-edited” or artificial look

This course is ideal for photographers, creatives and content creators who want to better understand their tools, elevate their images and feel confident navigating modern editing software.

No matter where you’re starting from, you’ll leave with practical skills, a clearer workflow and the ability to make your photos truly stand out.
