Perfecting geometry in your images to build crisp lines, clean angles and powerful perspectives.

Join Paul for an exclusive masterclass in they key ingredients required to make your architectural shots stand out for all the right reasons. 

Struggling with converging and diverging lines, wide-angle distortion and how to plan the perfect viewpoint? This Masterclass shows you how to transform shots that rely on perfect geometry into stunning, iconic, captures of our world – with full control in Capture One.

The tools, tips and tricks you need, to ensure you walk away with the best possible images.

In this live and interactive 90-minute session, we’ll show you how to turn those challenging geometric subjects into stunning, iconic captures that stand out from the crowd.

What you’ll learn:

• How to recognise distortion and perspective issues when shooting (wide angle, tilting back, lens choice)
• Using Capture One’s Keystone / Lens Correction tools precisely to correct geometry
• Balancing straight lines with creative perspective: when to correct everything vs when to let it bend for effect
• Cropping and composition adjustments post-correction without losing impact
• Fine-tuning sharpness and detail when you’ve corrected geometry (because straightening often exposes edges, warping, etc.)
• Export / deliver settings that preserve corrected geometry for print / web without weird stretching or artefacts

Why it matters:

If you’ve ever taken a photo of buildings or interiors and felt the edges look weird, walls “lean in,” or perspective just doesn’t feel right – this masterclass fixes that.

It’s one of those skills photographers tend to ignore until later, but when you master it, your images look much more polished and professional. For cityscapes, architectural photography, interiors – even landscapes with buildings – straight lines communicate quality, raising the trust that people have in your work.

Who should attend:

• Landscape / cityscape photographers who include architecture or built environment in their shoots
• Interior photographers and real-estate shooters who need clean walls, precise angles
• Travel photographers tired of struggling to correct distortion in post
• Anyone wanting to sharpen their editing skills for perspective and geometry in Capture One
