An entirely new approach to learning Lightroom Classic.
Transform your photography with a fresh vision and pro-level skills.
Why Lightroom Essentials?
Most people attempt to learn Lightroom on their own. With limited time to invest in learning, it can be extremely frustrating.
We totally understand. We've all been there at some point.
You can go to YouTube and search for a tutorial on something like, say, the tone curve, but it’s going to take more of your time than it needs to, and knowing the mechanics of the tool is only half the story. How that tool fits into your workflow is the other half, and YouTube searches will only give you tips and tricks in bits and pieces.
What we're offering is a rock-solid method for organizing your images and a 14-Step Workflow that’s guaranteed to make you a better, more efficient photographer.
We've reinvented Lightroom instruction.
A year in the making, we've built a highly potent and visual learning experience. With Lifetime Access to our private community, you will get personal attention from the team of pros at Muench Workshops.

Hi, I’m Marc Muench
I’m a third-generation landscape photographer, following what my grandfather Josef Muench started in the 1930s and continuing my father’s nature photography work. As a child, I traveled with my father to most of the national parks, wildernesses, and wildlife preserves. Growing up in a family of photographers inspired me to capture photographs of landscapes and wildlife.
After many years of my own commercial photography, I co-founded Muench Workshops in 2007. We have led hundreds of workshops, providing photography education on all seven continents. We created Lightroom Essentials: Process Like a Pro based on the struggles our students face. I’m confident this course will improve your Lightroom skills and improve your photography.
Quality. Guaranteed.
We are confident that you will love our course and the ongoing learning in our private community. If you are not totally satisfied, we will refund your money in the first 30 days, no problem.
