Scott’s All-New Light It, Shoot It, Retouch It LIVE Tour
Scott Kelby, award-winning author of The Digital Photography Book and editor of Photoshop User magazine, brings one of his all-time most popular online classes to life in this amazing day where you learn it all: the lighting, the shooting, and the retouching, all live, as it happens.
You’ll see everything unfold from scratch in each session, with different lighting setups and looks, as Scott starts with an empty stage and then puts together the lighting for a live portrait shoot.
You’re right there as he takes you through the entire shoot, tweaking the lighting and working with the models. Then he takes those very same images into Photoshop where he shares his very latest portrait retouching techniques, so you can see exactly how it’s all done from start to finish.
Keep an eye out for details and tour dates over at KelbyTrainingLive.com very soon!

Check out Photographing Adventure Sports, Part 2, the newest Kelby Training Online class from Tom Bol! Tom shows you how to create killer action images and portraits on location in Moab, Utah with rock climbers and trail runners in their natural environment. Tom starts off using just ambient light, then combines that with small flash and Elinchrom Ranger Quadras, gets some great shots, and takes you along for the ride.

Oh no, you got me John!
Scott, no thoughts from the WWPW blog?
KT
Ha! Two out of three ain’t bad (apologies to Meatloaf!)! If you saw my post below when you posted yours, then I am calling foul! :D
–John
Also, Ken, I think Scott sleeps all day on Wednesday & Thursday to recharge the batteries (the man just keeps going and going and going….).
He’ll probably chime in on the WWPW blog Friday.
–John
No, Scott flew up here today and helped me at The Flounder, on his way back now.
Ken:
Sorry I left a few dishes unwashed. I was late for my flight home. Thanks for the Lobster. :)
-Scott
Lots of good stuff today, Brad! Thanks!!

Hi! So, I have not been to Photoshop World. I am going to try to go in the fall to Vegas. I have a question….. What is a speed pass? (the one part of the current promo). Thanks!
ML
It gets you front row reserved seating in all the classes, well worth the pennies!
Mike, I went to my first PSW in Vegas 2010, I bought my tickets there for this year! Best photographic time of my life! You got to go, we can meet up with the other few thousand that will be there!
Heck Yea! Always nice to meet people that are as crazy as I and know more about photoshop (which is everyone btw). I will let you know!
Ahh…I could have guessed. I was looking around for any deals when I renewed my Kelby Training subscription earlier this week and now you come up with a deal!
But I think I will survive…. ;-)
Thanks for the info Brad!
/Anders
Yeah, is this deal for new subscribers only or also for renewals? I can’t see any mention of it on the website?
/Jannik
Jannik:
It’s in a small block on the right side of the linked page. You have to enter in ANFEB11 to the discount code field to get the package. Hope this helps!

About the RC deal for Kelbytraining.com…. You guys ran this back in January too (with the combo as a pre-order). I renewed during that special but haven’t gotten my RC book and video yet. Please tell me that it’s on the way and that I don’t have to add another year of training to get it
