At first glance, Rethink Presets seemed a bit overwhelming. After spending some time getting acquainted on how this program works, I dove in and gave it a try.
The presets (more a great set of tools, not merely presets) are grouped in comprehensive, intuitive and easy to use sections, in the order that makes the most sense for processing images. Most other presets offer few, if any, individual preset adjustments. This is where Rethink is different: most Rethink presets offer almost limitless ways in which to fine-tune each step of the way, giving one unprecedented control while working in the Lightroom module. I truly only have scratched the surface of this fantastic program, but I already know it will be a big part of my photo editing workflow. Rethink will bring photo editing to a whole new dimension. One important note: I truly believe that Rethink should be looked at as a great toolbox, rather than just another preset program. Once you try it out, that will make a lot more sense. Kudos to David and Jennifer for developing this much needed program that will enhance your Lightroom workflow to exciting new levels!
No one knows Death Valley and all it has to offer – from grand scenes to intricate details – better than David Kingham and Jennifer Renwick. Their passion for the landscape is palpable and they really impressed upon me the value of discovering your own unique artistic vision and finding beauty in the quieter, smaller scenes of nature. David and Jennifer delivered a top-notch workshop that was deeply thought out and well-organized, complete with a pre-workshop zoom meeting to meet the group and cover the itinerary and packing list. They included a variety of field locations as well as classroom time to share images and review processing techniques. Their down-to-earth friendly approach attracts like-minded participants that made for a fun week. It was a special experience - like chicken soup for the creative soul - and I can’t wait to join them again in the future.
I had the privilege of attending the recent Death Valley Black and White workshop. As it turns out this was one of the best workshops I have ever attended. Both David and Jennifer were professional, experienced and knowledgeable. Both proved to be excellent guides and instructors. They were very attentive when needed. As a result I gained all of knowledge both in photography and post processing. I would highly recommend them. I will certainly be looking at another workshop in the future
Hi Joel, Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words about our Death Valley Black and White workshop. We're absolutely thrilled to hear you had such a positive experience and that you found it to be one of the best workshops you've attended!
We really appreciate you highlighting our professionalism, experience, and knowledge. It means the world to us that you felt we were attentive and that you gained valuable knowledge in both photography and post-processing.
We had a blast working with you too, and we're so excited at the prospect of having you join us on another workshop in the future!
This truly was a unique workshop. Generally instructors do not take the extra time to talk about post processing after creating images on location and death Valley. David and Jennifer were excellent teachers. They were very patient and answered every question as though it was the first time ever being asked. On-site on the dunes, David and Jennifer always visited each photographer during the shoot to ask about questions or suggestions or recommendations for composition. Again, they were very patient and helped with the creative process. David and Jennifer never ignored participants for the sake of taking their own images.
Hey John,
Thanks so much for the glowing review of our Death Valley Black and White Workshop. We're thrilled you found it to be a unique and valuable experience.
We loved having you with us and are so glad you appreciated our approach to teaching, both in the field and during post-processing. It means the world to us that you felt we were patient and helpful, that's exactly what we strive for! We truly enjoy sharing our passion with others and seeing your creativity blossom.
We had a blast exploring Death Valley with you and hope to see you on another workshop soon!
Best,
David and Jennifer
David and Jennifer really know the Death Valley location for photographers. What’s more is that they scout the locations in detail immediately before the workshop. In an area where weather dramatically alters the immediate landscape, this is vitally important when you are spending your precious time there.
Unlike many workshops, the instruction gets high priority, with classroom sessions where you learn steps towards that extra special image. In the case of the black and white workshop that I took, it involved David’s workflow that was simple, innovative and gave impressive results. Also field use of your camera divulges features that you never knew your camera had.
Hi Stewart,
Thank you so much for your fantastic review of our Death Valley Black and White Workshop! We truly appreciate your kind words and are so glad you enjoyed the experience.
It means a lot to us that you highlighted our location scouting and the priority we place on instruction. We're passionate about Death Valley and helping photographers capture its unique beauty, and your feedback really validates our approach. We were thrilled to share David's workflow with you and help you discover new features on your camera!
We had a blast working with you and would love to have you join us on another workshop soon.
Thanks again,
David and Jennifer
