(PRWEB) February 14, 2007 -- This spring the Santa Fe Workshops welcomes Peter Krogh teaching his week¬long workshop "Raw File Photography: From Camera to Archive." Mastering the process of Raw file photography makes possible a higher level of productivity as well as a greater degree of satisfaction from your photography. This workshop helps you achieve both of these goals.

Digital photography has revitalized the spirit of photography all around the world. As the capabilities of the camera continue to expand, allowing photographers to shoot in new ways, a different approach to thinking about taking pictures and handling images becomes essential.

This workshop, examines how Raw file photography works, reviewing its strengths, and learning how best to leverage them. Covering exposure and white balance techniques, image quality issues, and creative use of the medium, we get an overview of the entire imaging workflow from camera to archive.

The week provides several opportunities to make new photographs in the beautiful New Mexico environment. Experimentation is encouraged as we push our photographic vision to new places through composition and the use of interesting light.

Back in the lab, participants try out the integrated workflow that Peter created for his groundbreaking publication, The DAM Book, to achieve greater productivity and efficiency. We practice the time-saving features of Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop, learning how to use these programs to create the best image possible.

Other topics covered include safe and efficient archiving of photographs with iView MediaPro, the leading digital asset management application for photographers. Participants leave with an understanding of how to use the software to create Web galleries, slide shows, movies, and proof prints.

Peter Krogh has been a professional photographer for more than 20 years, working for magazines, agencies, and corporations worldwide. An Alpha Tester for Adobe, with a specialty in archive and workflow issues, he is the author of The DAM Book (O'Reilly, 2005), the most widely used reference on digital asset management for photographers. Peter's work ranges from landscapes and architecture to images about light and color, to intensely personal photographs of family and friends. He revels in all forms of photographic expression and loves the experimental and offbeat.

Registration is limited to twelve participants. For more information or to register for this workshop, call (505) 983-1400.
