Excellent video. Any need for photoshop if you already have aperture?

@NDSCollector it depends what type of edits you are doing. Combining multiple images or complicated object removal or masking requires more tools than Aperture provides. I typically just into Photoshop for less than 10% of my wedding edits.

Hi Pete,

I saw a person in the Apple Store using this program, and they were able to remove a hanging light from a room. Any help with this? I just bought Aperture 3 and would like to be able to do this.

Excellent videos!

Thank you so much Pete. Its a really pleasure to follow ur tutorials. Cant think of any tutorial i could request right now, all i say - just do something like this -- pic a photo and show how you make it amazing from start to finnish. (as soon as i hit the wall with aperture 3, i ll get back to you).
