I've also spent many years as a lecturer to honors degree students in photography and graphic design.
This course is an introduction to Affinity Photo with tutorials and step-by-step projects, starting right from the beginning for complete beginners. You do not have to have any photo editing experience at all.
Together we will look at a specific set of tools and techniques. Then I will give you some projects to complete to reinforce your knowledge.
