in adding photo editing software to my computer i am told that i am getting short of memory, so i need to increase it. Can i add it, or do i need to have a professional do it?

easy enough to do, but expensive if you get it wrong.
1st. Discover what type of memory your PC already has
2nd. Buy some more of the same
3rd. remove main power cord from rear of box.
4th. remove side panel
5th. find memory on motherboard.
6th. either add or exchange memory chips. (don't force the retaining clips).
7th. replace power cord.
8th. Boot PC
9th. If all well, replace side panel

Good luck

You can DIY it. As to how, you don't say what the PC is an so it is not possible to help further.
