Living on the small island KelbyOne is like a window to the world, a great tool to connect with other photographers and be connected. I'm a food and travel photographer and writer, I use to travel a lot, work for magazines and books, well, sometimes I work in a team with authors and chefs but most of the time on my own. So every creative input is very welcome and it feels good to be part of the KelbyOne community. Thanks and congrats, and keep up the great work!

I started with NAPP which was one of "The" best sites for learning photoshop. When Kelbyone incorporated it to their site they forgot about photoshop and switched to photography. Photoshop is a lot more than just editing photos and has a lot more potential.
The only Time I benefit from this site is when the magazine is published as they have some tutorials for PPS in it.
Hi John, thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. If you're looking for Photoshop classes on more than just photo editing I would suggest checking out our latest course by Dave Clayton "Dave's Top 25 Photoshop Tips for Designers." Viktor Fejes and Dave Cross also offer a variety of courses for designers and on Photoshop beyond just photo editing. If you have any questions don't hesitate to reach out via the community or customer support.
I've been very pleased with the membership to Kelby One. I'm an amateur at best but continue to learn from many of the topics that are available. For the most part there is always an existing or up and coming topic that I can take from. In addition Scott and the rest of the crew keep them very interesting, easy to understand and packed with information. Best informative site and best value for your buck I think. Only thing I wish for is more availability of member input for desired topics. Maybe there is and I just haven't found out how to request yet? Boy I would love to have two hours of Scott Kelby's time... he really is enjoyable to listen to and learn from! Keep up the good work!
We love that you’re enjoying your KelbyOne experience. That makes us REALLY happy! Thanks for the feedback and don’t forget to submit your work in our latest member challenge.
Thanks to Scott and all the instructors at KelbyOne, I have come from someone who really didn't know much about photography to a confident person who has the confidence and knowledge to go out and capture great photos that I would have been able to do if it was not for the knowledge I gained at KelbyOne. Not only photography but also post editing in Photoshop CC. Thank you once again everyone at KelbyOne.

Hey Al, thanks for giving us a great review. It’s our mission to encourage you and photographers everywhere to create the best images you possibly can. We are genuinely happy to have you as a KelbyOne member.
I had taken photos before but not with the understanding I have now. I rely on and revisit KelbyOne courses to improve my Photography. I had little experience with Lightroom and Photoshop. Now I feel I have a good understanding of how to use these powerful tools. If I forget how to do something I just refer back to my bookmarked courses and refresh my memory. The KelbyOne courses have given me the confidence to experiment and push my photography further than ever. Thank you to all the instructors
Hi Arthur, we appreciate your review. It’s always a pleasure hearing how we’ve inspired our members to create beautiful images. Make sure you keep an eye out for the next KelbyOne Gallery. We’d love to see your body of work, and who knows, maybe you’ll be the next featured photographer. Good luck!
KelbyOne is always putting out new, relevant, and detailed training on all of the issues we need to know as photographers and designers. The site has continued to evolve and is so much better now. It is always a pleasure to go there for great information.
John, you’re making us blush over here with all your sweet talk! Thanks so much for the kind review. If you ever have any questions or suggestions, don’t be afraid to reach out!
Love everything about it. The video are very educational, excellent help desk, awesome discounts and so much more. I have been a member for a long time and will continue to be one.
Bea, we're so happy to have members like you. Thanks for the awesome review and feedback. Make sure you check out the community and get involved with your fellow members!
I was thinking about leaving Kelby One but I have enjoyed downloading the courses and watching them offline at camp and have been so impressed with the new offerings that I decided to continue. Great job!
It's learning at your own pace from a variety of great teachers, and interesting subjects! Whether it's photography lighting, post processing, and for me especially, skin retouching, I enjoy all of my classes.
Hey Jon, thanks for the wonderful review. We’re pleased to hear that you’re learning so much. KelbyOne is dedicated to teaching our members how to take the pictures they’ve always dreamed of. If you haven’t entered already, we’d love to see your work in our latest member challenge. Entries are still being accepted at community.kelbyone.com/c/member-challenges.
I visit the site about 4 times a week for a good hour each time. There is a wealth of information & guidance there. It is surprising what you find & what it leads you to. Everything is well explained and well illustrated. Get a little frustrated at times but that's my fault for not living in the USA just the good old UK! New stuff regularly appears and the quality is maintained. The 2 magazines, for Photoshop & Lightroom respectively, have excellent and varied content, usually bang up-to-date plus you have access to their archives so you can follow threads back to their sources. Lessons are very good, at a gentle pace & often with the exact class materials so you can work along with them. Very happy, will definitely renew in November & difficult to suggest improvements, only let's have more plus more time in the week to absorb it.
Aw, you’re so sweet, Chris! Thanks for the kind review and thanks for being a part of the KelbyOne gang—we love that you’ve chosen us to help you on your creative journey. Don’t be a stranger and if you haven’t already, don’t be afraid to check out the Community where you can meet other artists like yourself and chat with KelbyOne Instructors!
Kelbyone is my goto resource for learning everything photography related. Keep up the good work! The videos are top notch and it is great you can go back over and over again.
Hi there, thanks for the review. We’re glad you’re enjoying the classes. Don’t forget to check back every Thursday for the new online course.
I've spent years working on this craft. Without question the best place to learn more about EVERYTHING having to do with photography. The first place I turn when I need to learn how to use a flash, shoot a wedding, photograph babies, use the latest features in Lightroom, improve my business, my website, my skills.

This has to be one of the best sites for anyone to learn digital photography, photoshop, video editing and even web design. There is a heavy focus on adobe products, but they also do have some information on other software programs. The site is aimed towards professionals in the field but I think even amateurs or hobbyists can learn much from this site. The video production is top notch and the tutorials are excellent. Worth every cent to join the site.
As a beginner photographer I really needed some training in photo editing that I could do on my own time. Kelbyone fit the bill. I was able to watch tutorials on all important aspects of editing portrait photography. It opened up a whole new world to me inside photoshop that I never knew existed. I found Kelbyone very useful.

I took a course on Kelbyone called How to Photograph and Create Fun Holiday Cards. It gave me great ideas on how to get a picture for our family Christmas card on the playground. I can't wait to get my family out there, take the pictures and then have fun in Photoshop making the card! I love this kind of stuff and Kelbyone has been an awesome place to go to to up my skills!
I can't tell you how many times I've recommended Kelbyone to my photographer friends looking to take their skills to the next level. Their courses are affordable and extremely helpful. The instructors are all well educated in their fields. You can never go wrong with a course from Kelbyone.
I've been taking professional headshots for years in the tech world. I recently stumbled across Kelbyone, more specifically the Beautiful Headshots course. It gave me tips on lighting, positioning, and photo editing. It has changed the way I take my photos and my clients are very happy with the results! Completely worth it!
....this was the course I took on Kelbyone. It was SO helpful! I've been slowly starting my own baby photography business and this course helped push me in the right direction. From lighting techniques to creating the right atmosphere in your home. I can't wait to take the second course!
I was able to learn photoshop easily with Kelbyone. The tutorials are super easy to follow. It was worth every penny!
No support for members who are bullied on their community forum. I was bullied for several months by two moderators, and KelbyOne sided with the bullies.
Tip for consumers:
Start with the class called "Beginners Start Here" if you are new to photography. It is a great introductory class, and will help you get started without overwhelming you.
I'M A SELF PRONOUNCED FOODIE AND I'VE BEEN WANTING TO START PHOTOGRAPHING FOOD MORE PROFESSIONALLY TO GO ALONG WITH MY BLOG POSTS. I FOUND KELBYONE TO BE THE RIGHT PLACE TO FIND AN ONLINE CLASS ON JUST THE SUBJECT. GREAT COURSE WITH AN AWESOME INSTRUCTOR. I'VE ALREADY STARTED USING THE SKILLS I LEARNED AND I BELIEVE ITS REALLY TAKEN MY BLOG TO THE NEXT LEVEL.
KelbyOne is an educational membership community driven by a passion to provide incredible training for Photoshop, Lightroom & Photography made affordable!
