I’m Mike Davies, photographer, course instructor, and owner of Davies Media Design. I’m here to introduce you to one of the most powerful pieces of RAW processing software on the planet.

What Students Say About the Course
“I am a beginner in photo editing, and I chose Darktable for raw processing, because the “industry standard” LR’s [Lightroom] pricing for me is just too expensive. When I first opened DT, I had no clue how to start, I needed some help. This course provided exactly what I needed for my first project. Of course, I did not become a master overnight, but it I am heading to the right direction now.”
