Adobe Lightroom Classic for Beginners: (Part 2) Develop Module
During this intermediate class, we will pick up where the basic class left off. We will dive into the local adjustment system, learn how to control the color and mood of your image using Lightroom’s color profiles and develop presets. We will learn how to speed up your workflow using the power of custom presets in the develop and export module. This one will involve more actual editing and using practice photos to showing what each one does to the image, touching on how to edit mid tones, highlights, and shadows individually to create more dynamic images when editing.
