How to edit car photos in lightroom (WITHOUT PRESETS)

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Learn how to edit car photos using lightroom only, while presets are nice to have yet they are limited if you don't understand how lightroom works.
Every car photo is unique, therefore every lightroom edit is unique too! In this tutorial I am going to show you (Step by Step) how I edit my car photos in lightroom without the need for presets.

    Last radial filter in my opnion is not necessary because you have a tech team working with car already. It's more like "street photo" (forgive me silly comparsion). Attemping to hide people in the back is crushing your shot.

    I tend to do that a lot. My only problem is LR seems to not have the capability to create more efficient effect like screen blend and colorize like in PS. So that orange flare never end up being quite as good as if it was done in PS

    Hi Moe, great tutorial. Lightroom is my go to first stage of editing, and I am now pretty skilled at using it. But watching your edits, still give me new ideas of incorporating some of your tips into my workflow. I turn most of my edits from a photo into more of an art image, but people need to understand the power of lightroom as the first stage of any editing. If you want to see my style of images, then please feel free to pay my page a visit on FB. Just search GJCMotorSportsMedia, Keep up the great work, love watching your tutorials.

    I've mentioned in the tutorial that I will do things quickly for the sake of time, you can take your time and dodge perfectly. Adding a circular adjustment will brighten the dark spots, I selectively dodged the areas and not every spot on the rims.
