• Profound knowledge (he’s a fine photographer but also a techie, which is rare), excellent service, patience with idiots, and fair and honest pricing.

• It showed me how to recover missing files (some of which were unrecoverable because I committed mortal sins “behind LRC’s back”).

• Learned the importance of backing up the LRC catalog after each session, and knew that a catalog backup (Dan calls it BU) doesn’t take up tons of memory space (b/c I’m backing up only “pointers”, not full images).

• My LRC catalog was precariously in the “Backups” folder (bad); he moved it to a high-visibility location I could find and gave it a “MASTER” designation, with a flashing red LRC icon I could easily find. I backed this up on my external drive and its mirrored backup hard drive.

• Dan warned me about theft and fire and told me to get Backblaze, which offers unlimited cloud storage for under $100/year.

• I did a drill where I pretended to lose LRC and then easily recovered it from MASTER (rather than cursing at Adobe’s Chatbot for three hours to understand my crisis).

• Learned about using LR/Cloud with the SYNC process

• Showed me how to click Finder right and “open with” Picture Viewer to look at an image you

• He gave me some more tips and told me I could call or email him for reasonable freebie follow-up as needed.

I cannot say enough about how helpful Dan was for me today. I have had a syncing issue with LRC since August, which 2 consultants could not figure out, and adobe support was very unsupportive to say the least. Dan asked me a lot of questions ahead of time, was very thorough in wanting to understand the problem and in one hour and 15 minutes, he solved my problem that I have dealt with for over 4 months! He will be my first call from now on if I run into another problem with Lightroom. So happy to have found him.

I asked Dan for help to organize my Lightroom catalogue and files since I just replaced my old MacBook Pro. We met on Zoom yesterday for 2 hours and he addressed all of my concerns and more. Dan has an encyclopedic knowledge of Lightroom and a deep understanding of photography in general, He is very detail-oriented and was patient in going over all the nuts & bolts of the choices that we made together to improve my library and settings. He was able to answer all my questions in a logical manner. Afterwards he sent by email a summary of what we had discussed and links to pertinent and informative texts that I can review at my convenience. He offered to answer any questions that arose from the session. Dan is an outstanding educator and I heartily recommend him to anyone who wants to learn more about Lightroom.

Dan helped to get my files straightened out after an errant backup problem that created MANY files that were not needed. His attention to detail and method of approach are spot on and VERY helpful. AFterwards we got into a discussion of Keywords and Collections. His methods are great and very very detailed. Would definitely use his services again!

Dan was recommended by Lightroom Queen and I could not be happier with my choice. He is an excellent and intuitive teacher, who makes learning seamless by virtue of his vast experience. After years of struggling on my own, I finally have someone on whom to depend for a fast resolution to problems as they arise. He quickly grasps each user's needs and priorities, and tailors his approach to one's knowledge level. By making me aware of the capabilities of various features that are applicable to my work, I am even starting to enjoy Lightroom!
