Today we kicked off a huge week at Envato (it’s our 3rd birthday soon, don’t you know?) with the launch of Phototuts+, our 8th site in the Tuts+ Network. There we’ll be covering everything from beginner to advanced photography tips and techniques, post-processing, lighting and how to use your equipment with expertise. If you’ve ever wished you could take nicer photos, or to bump your nice photos into professional-level territory, Phototuts+ was created to help you!
Hit the jump to learn more about Phototuts+ and its editor, David Appleyard.
We’ll be publishing a combination of step-by-step written tutorials and screencasts/video lessons. In most weeks we’ll be publishing 2 – 3 high quality tutorials, so make sure to subscribe to the Phototuts+ RSS feed so you don’t miss a thing.
If you think you have the skills to create a screencast or text and image tutorial for Phototuts+, it’s easy to familiarize yourself with the guidelines and pitch your idea. We’re hungry for user contributions and pay great money for tutorials.
Meet the Editor, David Appleyard
David Appleyard currently edits Envato’s AppStorm blog, and runs the successful Design Shack. David is also a passionate and skilled photographer, and in 2006 he founded a stock photography company with a partner. You can see a few of his photos in the Phototuts+ Flickr group, which, incidentally, you should also join!

Sounds awesome! Thanks :)
Great !
wohoo!!
sounds great, always wanted to get involved in photography.
Can i make a suggestion, that you make the Plus Section online tutorials, and not just downloads, so that users can comment on the tutorials, and so that I don’t have to download everything obviously.
good suggestion..
Woohoo! Finally.
woohoo..+1
AHHH! I called this like a month ago. I was thinkin, “man, for all the stuff collis and co. are covering, it’s weird there’s not a tuts division for photography.”
Good Stuff Envato. I’ll be puttin it in my RSS and my delicious, for sure.
This is great, I’ve really been wanting to get into photography lately and this would be a great starting place.
I waited for this from very long :-)
Very cool, you guys just keep em coming!
wow i love this …..i am waiting…..
Wickeeeeeeddd! Hope this isn’t as bad as Flashtuts….
All the best Envato and David Appleyard !!! ;)

You probably know about it already :)
David “Appleyard” drives me absolutely crazy. He’s done a poor job with the AppStorm blog, and never bothers to listen to reader feedback. I unsubscribed from AppStorm for that reason, and I won’t be subscribing to this new site for the same reason.
It’s a shame, because I absolutely love all of the other Envato sites.
I don’t follow AppStorm, so I cannot judge him.. so I will see, hope people learn from they mistakes..
Hi John – Sorry to hear that you’re not happy with AppStorm. I’ve dropped you an email, so feel free to let me know your thoughts and comments about the site.
I’d love to hear what you’re not happy with and how you think the site could be improved!
Really lovely!
Great stuff! I’ll be following this with enthusiasm…
Awesome, looking forward to some great tutorials. I already like the HDR Tut. Great work.
Great… looking forward to more fantastic tutorials.
LOVE PHOTOGRAPHY! Great addition guys! Envato is the best.
Ahhhh! :D
Woow!!! Thats is what I need… I’m also looking for a photo market place.
This network can do wonders if theres stock photos.
YESYEYSYYEYYSYSYYSSYYSYSSSS
Horrraayyy!
I will be writing some tutorials soon.
Congrats. All going on at Tuts! Keep em coming!
This is what I’m waiting for! You guys rock, and Envato as well!
What a surprise. I wasn’t expecting a new Envato’s son. This one definitely will be interesting!
(I posted this in nettuts+ comments, but I figured I would post it here too…)
Ok, seriously, I don’t know if any Tuts+ higher-ups are reading this comment, but I (and many others I’m assuming) am dying for a CodeTuts+. Ideally this Codetuts+ would fill in the gaps that Nettuts+ leave out by teaching basic/intermediate/and advanced desktop programming. Hopefully this would range from anything like C, C++, Java, Python, Bash, and maybe even Objective C for those that want to learn to make iPhone apps. To reiterate, I, as well as many other, would kill for a Codetuts+, hopefully some of the tuts+ admins will look into this.
