I am an old bloke, took up birding and birding photography, I have struggled to find an explanation for how to start with LR, a behemoth. Your video is the FIRST I can understand well. Thank you!!! I am so grateful. Superb delivery. John UK

That's really great to hear John, thanks for watching :-)

After watching a good number of videos on this same subject, I finally found one that makes sense and isn't an hour long. Well done!

I am a newbie to Lightroom, this was exactly what I needed. Perfect beginners walk through! Thank you!!

How is it going? I just start it

Yours is the like 8th lightroom video I'm watching in a row and it's finally making everything make sense, thank you for explaining what everyone else seems to think is intrinsic knowledge

I run a small business and the world of photography is relatively new to me. I've taught for highschool for 4 years prior. I cannot express how much I appreciate the solid teaching here. The succinctness, the clarity, the simplicity. You are making so many people's lives easier and telling them what is important to know at a beginner level and what isn't. That insight in itself is gold. I hope this video and channel blows up in subscribers because this is a really valuable channel.

underrated video. pretty good first glance, no BS, straight to the facts. Thank you

I recentley moved from Lightroom to Lighrooom Classic and yhis was exactly what I needed! Keep up the good work!

You've provided a very clear, easy to understand overview of the basics of Lightroom Classic. I found it to be a very useful refresher course after having been away from the program for a while. Thanks from Mark Z

am a newbie to Lightroom, this was exactly what I needed. Perfect beginners walk through! Thank you!!

This was amazing, thanks. I hadn't used Lightroom in a good couple months so this was a good reminder and I loved the new tips.

I keep coming back to this, really helpful as I get to grips with basics of photography. Thanks, really good video

WOW! I am a new user of LrC and this was the most amazing tutorial! This really helped to simplify and explain clearly how LrC actually works. Absolutely fantastic! Thank you so much! Looking forward to watching further tutorials!

THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO I appreciate you dumming this down from the very 1st step.

You are great at explaining things clearly! Thank you.

Simple and informative video. Found the right one after 5 hours of viewing! Keep up the good work. Will be checking out the rest of your videos.

Ditto to the previous post. A bit daunting is Lightroom classic for beginners & this walk through was just what I needed. I look forward to the editing follow up video.

love this introductory video. I have years of experience in PS, but never really got involved with LR and just got by with images in folders in one drive. This has really given me the desire, and confidence to get going in LR to compliment my whole photography/editing workflow. Thanks!

You are so good at explaining!! I just started photography and want to learn to edit using LRC. Thank you for making this easy for me. Looking forward to your other tutorials.

Thank you so much I am new to Lr Lrc and have been struggling with it you have helped in this video alone immensely.

Love this. Long time photoshop user wanting to get better at quickly processing my photos. This is so helpful to get me going again! Thanks!

Why not use bridge?

Great job! Super helpful for organizing Lightroom files. Thank you!

This was perfect! Thank you! Really helped me!

I am new as well. This was awesome. I feel a little less lost. Thank you!!

Perfect for my needs. Thanks!

That was an excellent easy to understand video. Thank you so much!

Thanks park cameras good informative video on lightroom.

very good explanations, it worked effortless :D thanks

Thank you! I've just edited my first Lightroom photo today ^^

Wow. Some really cool organisational tips about the flagging and filtering that I didn't even learn in an Open University course about Digital Photography! Thank you. :) (Note: the course maybe have been updated to include this now, though. I just don't remember it on my course a few years back before the confusing Lightroom CC came about.)

Such clear, concise information. Just perfect

this was really helpful THANK YOU!

:) very informative and pedagogic, thank you

Thank you so much. As a very new user this was great. Well explained in understandable terms. Looking forward to your future tutorials.

Very useful as I've many years with Photoshop but never used Lightroom.

Thank you! This was great!

Great vid! I'd love to also know more about deleting/removing catalogues once we are done with editing those photos so our program isn't cluttered with tons of photos.

Great video man. Already subscribed!

great presentation - very clear!

Brilliant tutorial once again - please keep them coming - thank you

This was great! I have been taking photos for 47 years. And most times I dont want to tweek any part of a photo, although it seems that my eye is not as clear as it once was. Hence the need to learn lightroom. Thank you!

explained very well thanks

Thanks for the video! Good job.

Very helpful thank you!

Great for a beginner thank you.

I like this, I'm stuck with the importing, Mainly because some problem with the download, 5 hours straight with Lightroom support doing a remote fix. I'm quite happy with having fun your video, im sure I'll be repeating it many times!

Will not relevant but really like your voice, really calming to me :)

Very useful info, thanks!

I love to hear your accent and see you speak You really pronounce every word . : Makes it easy to watch.

Please do a editing video and guide to understanding some of the tools if you haven’t already! This guide helped tremendously

Nice editing! Subbed!

Hi I've been using Photoshop for more than 20yrs, but have only just dived into Lightroom and your video above is a great starting point .... thank you. I take 1000's of images each week so cataloguing is extremely important to me, but I am also interested in setting up presets for straightening and cropping for batch exports, if you could provide a link for anything you have done on this ... it would be much appreciated. Cheers Paul

extremely helpful thank u :)

Thank you very much getting me started. You’ve done the next 17:40 video I’d request, which is editing B&W photos. Again, much appreciated.

Not sure why the number showed up in my comment- disregard.

I'm new to both Lightroom and Lightroom Classic so I'd like to think I'm unbiased. And I have to say, Lightroom is by far the better software in my opinion, which in a sense in unsurprising given it's new code. It runs circles around Classic on my machine, is more intuitive, has great community features, cloud backup, a cleaner interface and of course syncs across my Mac, iPad and iPhone. Yes, it misses out on a large percentage of plugins and doesn't have the absolute finite cataloguing controls of Classic, but for all but the most demanding users I reckon it's plenty enough. With respect to those who have used Classic for many years, and I think you alluded to this at the very beginning of the video, it is difficult to move from one software you've used for a long time onto another. But I don't believe Adobe is marketing Lightroom as a 'switcher' product; rather they're getting new users like myself to invest in the new app rather than the legacy of Classic, which in this day and age has less of a future given it's old platform.

great video. Thanks

VERY USEFUL BRO👌✨ THANK YOU 🇿🇦

Very good video. I just want to clarify that Photoshop is Non-destructive too. When you import a file into photoshop, it makes a copy which you can edit and either save a PSD edit or a separate file of that picture. It's only destructive if you overwrite the original file when saving. And that is no different that exporting files on top of previously saved files in Lightroom. Lightroom saves edits in to EXIF data just as Photoshop saves edits into PSD data which will affect the photos that are either embedded or linked to that PSD doc. So it's really the same thing.

Just got LRC V10 installed on my PC but I did not how to start. Looking at your video I realized I had started the wrong way. Your video was si so helpful. I cannot wait to watch the ones on photo editing. Because I play with the sliders not knowing exaxtly what I am doing. Later I would interested by a small video on photomerge as there are multiple options. And also HDR. Thanks again for your brilliant work

Really outstanding. I've given up on other tutorials that went too fast and were not clear. Did you ever make a more detailed tutorial on the LrC Develop tab for editing? I'd love to see that. Thanks!!!

Super cool explanation buddy

I liked to teaching style. Subscribed

thank you

Most helpful. I should like to know how to avoid / get rid of duplicate images.

I would like more descriptions about how to use external drives to help manage photos

Thank you, Sir 🙏🍧🍧

Awsome program

VERY NICE!!! Your explanations are very clear and precise without going over board. I'v been using LR for about 2 years and learned bits and pieces with the editing (which I had normally done in Photoshop). I have recently had problems with catalog system - various things - old files being on disc but not showing up in an already imported set of shots, odd things... I was looking for an explanation to see if I had been doing anything wrong and YOUR nice video shows I have not. So, I'm going to start from the top, create a completely new updated catalog of that 50,000 shots! LOL!!!! And make sure i know EXACTLY WHERE THAT CATALOG IS STORED!!! many thanks for this tutorial, it really was a big help and sorted out a few thing in my mind!!!!!

Very well explained

Thank you so much for the video. Great tips! I had been using lightroom for a while but it was a pirated format. A friend downloaded on my laptop. I was great at using it for a while. Super-organized! Then, this year I started the paying version. Lightroom Classic. It feels different from the way I use before. Your video was really helpful. I love the tip on using P and the pressing 5 for the 5 star and also the ability to smart collections. One quick question. In the beginning you said that we should create the file first in the computer? Before, I use to enter my SD card and then upload and create a file name in lightroom. Not in the computer. Am I understanding correct? The being organized part in lightroom is really important to me. This way when I want to go back and look and resend, it's easy. And because in general I am a person that likes everything in it's place. Right now my photos all a mess jumbled in previous import. There is no order. I'd show you a screenshot, but I don't see a way to add photos. I have 457 photos in previous import and 910 in all photos. For my filter folders its very minimally organized right now. Only 4 folders. I made then by accident because it was before I watched your video. Any additional clarification would be incredibly appreciated :) Keep making these helpful videos, thank you!

Really appreciated this "refresher" course as I've been away from LR for a few years and had forgotten a lot of the basics. In this and at least one other of your wonderful videos, you mention that you have another video that goes into use of brushes (I think you called it something like "Getting Started with Photo Editing). Can you please share the link to that? I can't seem to find it.

Thanks for this. Very helpful. My question is: if I want to do further edits on an already edited photo, what's the process for that? Do we start with the original photo? or the exported edited photo or what? and do we then re-export it over the previously edited exported photo? Thanks for your help.

wow

In the File Settings section of the Export box you have sRGB as your preferred color space. Is that by default? There is also Adobe RGB available...any particular reason you chose sRGB? Great video!

The best soft cos when ur stoned

hello thank you very much. I have one question. I make catalogue, i edit photos, export etc. And then when i finish i move finished photos to NAS (or another disk - i dont have it is computer) it is possible to copy also catalogue and everythig i did on photos? Thanks

Thanks for an excellent video tutorial. But I have a question for you. Suppose I create a new catalogue on my desktop, does it occupy space on my computer? And can I store my RAW files whenever I finish shoot into this new catalogue on my desktop? I am worried about space on my PC hard drive. Please explain. Thank you. Also please make the continuation video for this. Thanks

I would hope when exporting raw, you could make it a tiff, or...(I don't know the quality of dng) . The notion being I don't want a jpeg that degrades each time it's resaved....

When you export are the originals affected? Or do they remain in Lightroom at their original size?

I noticed you had various types of raw files. Is it possible to import them all as DNGs in LrC?

👍

Do you use adobe bridge at all or do you only use Lightroom to organize and edit your pictures? I am very confused on which workflow I should start with.

I have a question . I am already busy with a lightroom classic and have many photos on my cathalog.. Now a want to start with a NAS and new HDD so i am copy all my photos to a faster HDD and use the NAS as backup. What will happen when i start a fresh new lightroom classic? In worse case scenario?

One thing that's been frustrating me is after importing, Lightroom is pulling the photo automatically into my local Disk instead loading it from the destination of where it came from RAW files (basically this is duplicating the photo - the original remains in the RAW location and the newly imported one is in a seperate location) i. I assumed maybe there was auto import features but cannot get it to stop defaulting to Local Disc> Pictures>2022> whatever date . Any thoughts?

I need to know how to keep the .lrt files so I can open the collection after I migrate to a new computer. And the difference between Catalog and collection. Collection a subset of Catalog? Can one have a catalog and add collections from the past?

If I am editing on my MacBook Air, is it normal to lager be slow? Should I always edit off the Lacie hard drive ? Does anyone, mainly a photographer have any tips or step my step instructions about this process and saving, transferring to pic time or online gallery. I could really use a lot of help

Wish I had seen this before I started messing. I have Lightroom, Lightroom Classic, and photoshop, and I have photos all over the place. is there any way I can remove all photos from all 3, and start again? Thanks. John

Hi do you have any video related to editing??

I found the bass volume to be distracting. Still trying to find out how to lower that setting on my computer. otherwise, I like your teaching style.

Does this work with jpgs? I always thought in Lightroom if you edited jpgs that was destructive. Thanks

Mine doesn't have the develope tab. It had it the first time I opened it and now that I went to do another set it's just presets and I can't figure out how to get the tabs at the top back

I don’t have the library, develop map headings on the right! And I can’t figuire it out! Help! Is this just a newer version?

How do i watch more

when i insert it?

I don't have in the Basic section the Profile: Adobe Color, i have Profile: Color, and if i choose Browse i don't see Adobe Color. Can you help me please?

When you clicked Import, where are the pictures coming from?
