Vibrance and saturation are my friends (found under the Basic panel) but I also love shifting individual color saturation in the HSL panel. Color: I’m anything but black and white – I’m pretty much everything in between 🙂 I LOVE color as ever apparent in my Instagram feed. A few adjustments here can really pack a powerful punch to an image.ģ. And then there’s the Tone Curve, almost like a contrast slider on steroids. For example, sliding the blacks to the left can help an image that looks a bit washed out. The whites/blacks slider can be extremely useful as well in brightening and darkening an image. If the image is underexposed, I typically increase the exposure slider, decrease the highlights, and brighten the shadows. Lighting: First things first: I start with exposure, highlights, shadows and whites/blacks. Inside the Develop Module is where the real fun begins.Ģ. I then begin the selection process and hit Import once done. Import: From the File menu, I click on Import Photos and Videos and go to the tab that shows my external hard drive (where I’ve already transferred all photos from the camera SD card).

Now, I’m crushing on the Sony a7 III 🙂ġ. After a few years, I upgraded to the D7200.

Lightroom is the only editing tool I’ve ever used to showcase the crazy beautiful places I’m able to visit. I figured out that while the correct settings are important and while lighting is imperative in controlling the image, there’s this other incredibly useful tool to make my photos pop.
