No. Volume 3 is an entirely new course. It is not an update and requires a new purchase, even if you purchased a previous volume. 

First, you can always click here to watch a quick 3 minute video where I explain this better than I can write it.

I know I’m getting this question a lot so let me explain with a question back at you. How do you get better at photography? You practice. You go out and do the same things over and over again until they become second nature. 

Getting better at photo editing is similar. 

For me, this process never stops. Me showing you 7 photo editing examples in Volume 1 doesn’t cover the entire spectrum of editing possibilites. People loved it and wanted more examples so I created volume 2. People kept asking for more… so now we have Volume 3. 

Repition and variety is key and that is why there are various volumes of this course. Different photos… variety… repitition. 

First, see the question above. Volume 3 IS NOT part of Volume 1 or 2, and not the same course (notice the term “Volume” not “version”). 
Next… I have totally updated Volume 1 and 2. And if you purchased either of them (even 5 years ago) the update (for Vol 1 or 2) is FREE.

Volume 3 is a new / different course – so it is not included in any update.

To get Volume 1 or 2 updates: Just log in to your account and the downloads and online videos have already been replaced. YOU DO NOT NEED TO CONTACT SUPPORT to get the new downloads. Every place in your account that had old downloads or old streaming videos has already been updated with new ones. Don’t over complicate this… if you can log in to your account and see a “No Light” course, it is updated so just download or stream the videos.

On a scale of 1 – 10 (with 10 being advanced), I’d say this course is about a 3 or 4. This course is meant for an late beginner to intermediate user and even beyond. Some one who at least knows the basics of using Lightroom or Adobe Camera Raw in Photoshop. You’ll have to know how to open / import your photos, and what the basic adjustments do (masking tools most. of all).

As for Photoshop, you’ll need to know the basics of Layers, Selections, Brushing and some masking. Again, about a 3-4 skill level out of 10. 

But the techniques are all very simple and probably use tools you’ve used before. Heck… You probably won’t learn any new tools in this course. But you will learn a new and creative way to use them.

These courses were recorded using 2022 versions of Lightroom and Photoshop as of April 2022.

While I did previously (in 2018 record a version in ON1), no current versions are done in ON1 software and the ON1 version is no longer for sale. 

In the course I use both Lightroom Classic and Photoshop where needed. I’d say 75-80% of the work is done in Lightroom Classic (or Photoshop’s Camera Raw is the same thing).

Then sometimes I use Photoshop if I feel the image would benefit from something I can’t do in Lightroom (sky replacement, removing a distraction). 

Yes. If you watch the online streaming version then you can log in on your tablet’s browser and watch them. Or if you download, the videos are compatible with your tablets. However, you’ll first need to download them to your computer and then transfer to your tablet.
