Photoshop image editing, compositing and AI

This beginner-friendly specialization helps you build a complete, modern Photoshop practice—from foundational editing skills to advanced compositing and AI-powered design techniques. Across four short courses, you’ll learn how to edit, enhance, combine, and reinvent images using Adobe Photoshop on the web, desktop, and mobile. You’ll also explore how generative AI expands creative possibilities through Adobe Firefly, Generative Fill, and Generative Expand. You’ll begin by building confidence with the interface, layers, selections, adjustment tools, and nondestructive editing methods. Then you’ll learn to refine and retouch images using color correction, lighting control, sharpening, and professional finishing workflows. In the compositing course, you’ll practice blending images, applying color harmony, and creating believably integrated scenes using masks, blending modes, and visual storytelling principles. Finally, you’ll unlock AI-enabled features that streamline exploration and production—allowing you to expand canvases, generate new details, and quickly iterate on design directions. Throughout each course, you’ll complete hands-on projects that teach real creative workflows for social content, marketing graphics, photography work, and personal design projects. By the end, you’ll have a toolkit of repeatable Photoshop workflows, example projects, and the confidence to create polished, production-ready designs using traditional editing and generative AI side by side.
