Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need the latest version of Photoshop?
No. Most of the tools and techniques in this course work in most versions of Photoshop. However, if you want to follow along with the machine-learning tools section, you will need the latest version.
Is this course beginner-friendly?
Yes. We start with the basics and build up to advanced techniques. Even if you’re brand new to selections, you’ll be able to follow along and make progress.
I already know how to use Select Subject and Quick Selection. Will I still learn something new?
Absolutely. This course goes far beyond auto tools. You’ll learn advanced workflows with channels, custom brushes, Blend If, my technique for creating multiple masks in a single layer, and more! You'll learn things many Photoshop users never touch.
How long do I have access to the course?
Forever. Once you enroll, you’ll have lifetime access, including any updates I add in the future.
Is this the same content that’s on YouTube?
No. While I teach Photoshop for free on YouTube, this course is structured very differently. Inside Selections and Masking Mastery, everything is organized step-by-step, with practice files, custom brushes, and lessons that build upon each other. You get a complete system, not just individual tips.
YouTube is great for quick tutorials. This course is designed to take you from the basics to advanced workflows in one clear, focused path, something you won’t find for free online.
Additionally, I share my advanced multiple mask technique, which I have not shared anywhere else.
What if I don’t have time right now?
No problem. The course is self-paced. Start when you’re ready, go at your own speed, and revisit lessons anytime.
Is the course closed captioned?
Yes! The course has closed captions in English.
Do I have to download any software to watch the course?
No! You can watch on any browser, including your mobile device.
What if I don’t like the course?
I offer a 14-day money-back guarantee. If the course doesn’t help you get better results, just send me a message and I’ll refund your purchase.
Can I download the course for offline use?
Practice files, images, and custom brushes are all downloadable, allowing you to practice offline.
Lesson videos, however, are available only for streaming. This way, you’ll always get the most up-to-date training without worrying about outdated files.
Streaming also means you can learn from any device, anywhere, at any time, while keeping the course secure and sustainable for all members.
