Join us for a focused, hands-on editing experience designed to help you grow faster and edit better.
Strengthen Your Editing Faster
March 4 & 11, 2026 | $160
Two 2-hour minute sessions online. The session will begin at 8 PM EST. It will be recorded and made available to registered participants for 60 days. Tuition is non-refundable.
The fastest way to improve your editing skills is not by watching more tutorials. It is by working directly with an expert who can give you meaningful feedback and guide your development.
Great photography cannot be measured with a ruler or a scale. It relies on your senses, your judgment, and your expectations. Working with a skilled instructor to help calibrate those senses allows you to grow faster and achieve more satisfying, consistent results.
In this two-session online workshop, editing expert Rich Seiling will work directly with you to help refine your editing skills and accelerate your growth.
This class creates a feedback loop of suggestion and improvement that has proven to grow your skills quickly. It is the same approach used in our Denver Edit and Print workshop. Since this is a group class, you’ll get to see a wide range of photos and feedback that will further help tune your senses.
How this workshop works
Session One
Rich will review your submitted images with you in a small group setting, spending approximately ten minutes per participant. He will offer clear, constructive feedback and specific suggestions for how to improve your edits.
Between Sessions
You will apply Rich’s feedback to your images and re-edit your files, putting the guidance into practice.
Session Two
You will submit your revised images for a second round of review. Rich will walk through your progress, offer additional refinement, and help you continue developing your editing instincts.
This process of review, practice, and refinement is the same approach used in our highly successful Denver Edit and Print workshop and has proven to help photographers grow quickly and confidently.

Rich Seiling
Rich Seiling’s passion for capturing light and beauty with photography has led him on a series of adventures that have shaped his vision and view of the craft. From a stint at The Ansel Adams Gallery in Yosemite as an assistant curator, to his pioneering work in digital printmaking, founding of a leading fine art printing studio, and 22 years living in and photographing the Yosemite region of the Sierra Nevada, Rich has deeply explored the vision and craft of photography while continuing to express his own vision.
He learned photography in the darkroom, seeking to make prints with the rich tonal scale exemplified by the West Coast traditions of photography. But his frustration with color processes lead him to explore digital photography starting in the early 1990s.
Combining his darkroom knowledge with digital tools led to a process for making color prints of museum quality that pushed the process to new heights. His reputation for making vibrant yet realistic digital prints allowed him to help photographers like Michael Forsberg, Galen Rowell, Jack Dykinga, Robert Glenn Ketchum, and many others, make the transition to digital fine art printing. With his team at West Coast Imaging, he has helped produce numerous museum shows, supplied prints for leading galleries, and done prepress for art books from publishers like Taschen and Houghton Mifflin.
His simple yet powerful Photoshop workflow, tested on tens of thousands of prints at WCI, is in use by many top professionals, and has been taught to countless students across the country through workshops and lectures.
Working in both black & white and color, Rich strives to capture the profound beauty of nature and communicate it through vibrant, and sometimes large, prints. He considers himself a student of light, discovering its qualities and how it communicates the inherent realities of a subject, often seeking out fleeting moments of rare light that make the landscape sing its own voice.
Driven by the belief that each photographer has a unique story only they can tell, Rich teaches the art of photography through workshops and articles. His goal is to help students unlock their potential to tell their own stories by helping them gain control of the craft, expand their vision, and most of all, to experience the enrichment and joy that photography brings.
Rich lives just outside Nashville with his wife and creative partner Susan, and his three children.
