Everything You Ever Wanted To Learn About Frequency Separation
“I have to say the transformation Whitney achieves is amazing, I love frequency separation and I really wish I could get the most out of this video. However, Im 30% deaf, I had my hearing aide in, my speakers full blast, and I just cant decipher enough to take it all in. Usually on the tutorials here I can see the tools that are being used and the settings, but Whitney's screen is all dark, and small, so I just cant make out what tool She is using where. Honestly the results are amazing, and I'd just about kill to watch this with subtitles!!! I watched about half of the retouch and had to give up. I have all of the Zero To series and Ben is so much easier to understand. I know this is my problem, but I think its worth mentioning.”

Everything You Ever Wanted To Learn About Frequency Separation
“This is great! If you are familiar with Zero to Skin, you will see that Whitney reinforces much of what Ben Willmore talks about. Whitney goes into very detailed explanations of the technical nature of light and explains in detail (similar to Ben) what frequency separation is and how it works. I am a bit of a tecnophile, so I love this geeky stuff! I admit, I was a bit lost with some of the technical explanations, but as Whitney explained the math behind the technology, it kind of made some sense. Whitney also covers a couple of tricks that are not covered in the Zero to Skin videos. There's so much good stuff in this product that I am sure I am going to be referring back to the videos numerous times! Whitney even covers how to add a texture to an image and how to remove a texture from an image, as well as how to remove wrinkles from clothing - these tricks can be very useful! I highly recommend this product!”

Soulful Critique: Meg’s Journey Home
“I just want you to know that some of us have always understood you were just telling your story. Art is always a reflection of what is inside of us. We show what we know, we show what we have been through and it's almost like giving birth to the most private parts of ourselves. People will misunderstand and will also cast their ugliness or their own trauma onto your truth, that's to be expected. But there are also people who love and appreciate honesty so much that they could never not see what you are trying to communicate. I am really happy to have been let in to see your story from your point of view in addition to already seeing it in your work. And you have every right to speak your story in whatever way makes it real and genuine for you. If we can't do that with art then ( in my opinion ) why even make art? Thank you for being open. <3”

— Bonnie Smith
Secret Garden
“I loved this video. I see a lot of Professional Fine Art Pet Portrait Photographers that I admire, using these methods but without explanation. It is nice to watch it for myself. You literally are painting your portrait with colors and techniques. I do recommend this video for others as you have seen a lot of these types of edits on humans with Meg, but the coloring on Fur is different and it is interesting highlighting the way light hits the fur child. This video also brings awareness to thinking about colors that support your mood. I also, loved how soft-spoken Emma is as I watched this video in the early morning.”
— Gia Randazzo

If you are scared of Actions, buy this course. We are only 3 months in and I can't wait for the next one.”

Balcony Serenade Layered Digital Background
“These layered digital backgrounds are so beautiful, yet fairly simple to execute, as the layer for your subject has already been created. All you have to do is place your subject, paint in the shadows in the shadow layer that has already been created for you, then tweak to your liking until you have your masterpiece. These backgrounds are fun to shoot for, as well. I love all of them!”

Ben went over the most important points that are necessary to capture sharp images. The best part was that he showed how he would set it in three different cameras, the Canon, Nikon, and Sony. This course left me feeling more confident. I am now better prepared to move my skills to the next level. The tips and tricks were an added bonus. Thank you for another winner. I can't recommend it enough.”

“I could listen to your voice all day. LOL This is PERFECT for those who have no idea how to take a subject and maneuver it within the same image for special effects. (select, move, fill, opacity changes etc) I personally, learned a few tips on tools, layering and toggling that I found I tend to do "the hard way" as I was pretty much self-taught. Thank God I found MBP and the multiple talents of guest artists here. Havent found a class yet that I didnt need and that I didnt need to have on hand for future reference. THANK YOU!”

Tips and Techniques: Posing
“This video is hilarious! Besides the very useful information about posing in different outdoor and indoor settings, I had to laugh out loud more then once by the comments of Meg.
->While editing:.."This is the worst"…… "Getting the pose correct straight out of the camera so you don't come home with your client and have to start reconstructing their face".
This is so true!
From all the different video’s on the site.. I do enjoy Meg’s videos the most.”

“Some of this was very basic for someone with years of PS experience (I have been following Ben for years on here, CreativeLive and his MastersAcademy website). However, as with all Ben's videos, I always always pick up some very helpful and useful tips to improve my workflow and help me in my work. Every Ben Willmore video is worth watching no matter your PS level. He explains things in easy to understand and follow training. Ben is the absolute best with PS!!!”

“Both of these backgrounds are nothing short of stunning! I showed them to my granddaughter, and that was all it took to start the creative wheels turning.

Holiday Card Compositing Fundamentals
“Excellent course!! I rarely leave reviews but felt compelled to do so because this one was so good, fun, and informative. Having no experience with compositing, I really appreciated the way Jessica explained what she was doing, and why, so that the background image and the subject image match in a way that makes the end result (composite) look its best and be believable.
The only thing I'd say is missing from this is how or where to order printed cards once you're done with the card design. When we order cards, do they come with envelopes?
....signed Clueless”

Soulful Critique: Finding the Edge
“"Nobody else can photograph what you photograph because nobody else is there and nobody is you in those shoots"
This is what got me.
I saw a bit of myself in each of these women and I learned quite a bit about myself and why I photograph how I do. I also really started thinking about the fact that I have been looking back on photos and have felt like 2016 was the last good year of photography for me. However yesterday I did a session and probably produced some of my best work that I have been happy with. I was forced to fully stop everything with the pandemic and I was forced to start looking at myself and why I've been failing my business and my photography. It's quite eye opening and this video has also helped in showing me where I can possibly go towards finding my edge. A must see for anyone who is doubting their work, doubting themselves and looking to have their eyes and hearts opened.”
— Barb Anderson
