Hey everyone!! Wanted to make a video that we could easily teach you lightroom and get you going, or refer to from time to time as a quick refresher! Love you guys a ton and i honestly hope this helps anyone & everyone out there looking to get better at editing photos! I cant wait to see what you guys can do after this! Feel free to leave any future videos you want to see in the comments, and ill add em to the list!! Have a great sunday!!! - Sawyer
Thank you so much! Just what I needed to get started. Only question is that your lightroom layout is different from the way mines look (doesn't have the bar at the top like yours) ... Great video! Mahalo🤙🏼
This guy explained it exactly how it needs to be explained! Most people try to do tutorials that seem like they are for professionals, but why would a professional be watching it? Great tutorial!!!
I've been playing this video on pause and play on my MacBook while directly applying the tips in Lightroom on my monitor. It's like having a hands on 1 on 1 teacher! Amazing!!!
I love how this is NOT a : "I'll show you the tools but take my private course to really learn something" kind of video, and I love how you encourage people to learn with differents tools and it's not like "You do this and that and all done"
I've never really felt comfortable in knowing what I was doing with the tone curve, but this video totally nails it. Great tutorial! So easy to follow. Thank you!
After recently rediscovering my enjoyment for nature photography and looking to get a grasp on editing, this tutorial is nothing short of amazing. Thank you sir!
I am a beginner who has been obsessively searching for great tutorials for a couple of months now....and after watching dozens of tutorials on this subject, I have found this one to be the very best! I love how you jump right in and get straight to the point with out dinking around with off-subject content. People searching for information are not searching for entertainment, we are usually needing quick information, and you have offered this in an easy to understand format. Bravo....and thank you! I’ll be following you as one of my top 3 go-to instructors for now on....and I’ll be recommending you to others as well.
Bro, you are a gift from god. This has to be THE BEST tutorial I’ve seen on TH-cam. A step by step process and straight to the point. No veering off topic. This was excellent, thanks.
I've watched probably a billion Lightroom editing tutorial videos and this is the first one that made sense from start to end. Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to make this video! You're a life saver.
I have always used photoshop for all of my editing. I never been taught how to use Lightroom and this video was SO helpful. Thank you so much. Will definitely be referencing back to this often:)
May God bless you for your selflessness in sharing so much wisdom in an 18 minute video. The way you explained everything from start to finish really blessed me, even to you allow your photos to be downloaded so we can follow along was the icing on the cake. Thank you so much for this video! Please do more to help those of us that are just starting on this journey! You are appreciated brother 🙏🏽💯🙌🏾
holy crap, ive learned more in this 18 min vid than from other tutorials ive been watching for months. youre so good at what youre doing please continue inspiring other aspiring photographers! much respect!
This is THEEEEE BEST Lightroom tutorial ever! After watching this makes me think the other tutorials I’ve seen, well those people don’t know how to edit 😅🙈
Hands down one of the best explanations of basic photo editing in lightroom I have ever seen. Simple, to the point, enlightening. Especially what to do where and why. It helps you leave the 'basic' tab more often and with confidence. I have seen many tutorials, but watching this turned on new light switches of understanding. Thanks!
You're literally a God you explained this So well, I'm so grateful this resource was free, I hope you got compensated properly for this video because I appreciate you sharing your knowledge with us SO MUCH! I actually hit a huge bottleneck in photography because I didn't know how to edit except on "cutsey" apps and mobile sites like Fotor and Ribbit, wrestling with filters to get even 50% of the affect I wanted. I sucked it up and I'm trying Lightroom and I'm So Grateful for how you explained everything!
Man... I dont even have m50 yet and I just ran up on you randomly, I just got into all of it, editing photos etc...but I watched your video from first to last second... Im impressed how you "teached" what means what in the way like my best friend would show me, your color of voice, inteligent aproach... Not only that I have learned a lot of things, I even enjoyed every single second. Cheers man!!
Amazing Tutorial. Thank you so much for making this. I use lightroom almost every day, but today I learned something new. How to use the tone curves correctly. Thanks, mate. Keep up your great work!!
I have watched endless videos since 2020 and I can honestly say that this was definitely one of the most informative and easy to understand. You explained everything so clearly and recapped it throughout. I feel like I just learned so much and I cannot believe it took me this long to find your page! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and abilities!
"And all of a sudden, you've got blue-ass water" this is my favorite thing of the day ha ha ha ha! More seriously, this is one of the best tutorials I"ve ever seen for this stuff - thank you SO much!
That was by far, the best tutorial I've seen on Lightroom. I knew you were supposed to follow the tabs; Library, Develop, etc, but using; Correction, Colour and Finishing as the steps, has just unlocked the entire process and understanding of Lightroom for me.
I've never properly understood how the tone curves work, and your explanation cleared everything up for me in a matter of minutes. THANK YOU. I'd LOVE more videos just like this, maybe looking at a few specific things that people achieve in their photos and how to do them yourself?
I keep coming back to watch this video. Its like my go-to video everytime I feel like I've forgotten something in lightroom. It's still the best lightroom tutorial video🙌🏽
This tutorial is amazing. I was literally on the verge of tears with frustration before finding this. You really dumbed it down for us who need lots of explaining!! Thank you 💪🏻
I wish I had watched this earlier before I watched all other work flow tutorials. This is not only a work flow tutorial but also a fundamental guide/manual of the software and explains what works how. I understand lightroom much much better now and I'm excited to apply all of these to my next photo editing. Thank you so much. Best lightroom basic tutorial ever!
I had used LIghtroom many times and I always play around with the Tone curve and the HSL not knowing what I was doing but He explained everything so easy going, simple and understandable. Amazing video!!! Keep up!
WOW! Finally, a tutorial that doesn't assume that I'm already versed in the ways of Lightroom! THANK YOU! This video alone is enough for me to subscribe.
I have never reached for my phone to comment on a video I'm watching on my tv.....but your video was fantastic. I have watched so many Lightroom videos and they always leave me feeling somewhat overwhelmed. Thank you! I love your straight forward approach on how to mess around with the different features. Great video! ☮️
Wow. This is such a good video, I'm so glad you made it! It's already been 2+ years and you can see how it still helps tons of people. Thank you so so much
you are a genius ! Thank you for demonstrating the Tone Curve the way you did. I haven't even finished the whole video but wanted to say thank you for making such an easy to follow, clear, and simple video explaining Lightroom editing. I'm a beginner photographer and needed this tremendously!
Quite incredible how much you fit in here and how artistic the end result is. Say goodbye to dull and predictable digital files with these techniques. I love the way you use the sliders to taste, like dials, rather than fussing over particular values on them.
EXTREMELY BENEFICIAL! Thank you very much, i was following along with my iPhone and LR mobile and for the most part everything is the same (just in a different order). Easy to follow!
I'm really impressed with your Lightroom tutorial video. It's clear and concise, and you really know your stuff! I'm definitely going to check out your other videos. Thank you very much.
Watched a few videos on lightroom but can honestly say you made me purchase it. Your teaching style, enthusiasm, passion and expertise was a joy. That is how to teach like a boss. Thanks brother
I figured it out. We had the mobile version of Lightroom but he has the desktop version. Think it’s called Lightroom C. I downloaded the pack where I get both versions so I have the desktop one that looks like his on my laptop and the one I originally had on my phone and iPad.
The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubt, while the stupid ones are full of confidence. Bitcoin will reach $1 million within 5 years! Sure, it will crash back down to $200,000 maybe, but that’s just another opportunity to buy the dip!!!
My life has changed since I came across Mrs Alicia through a friend, am really grateful for this, people don't really know that she's a genius in bitcoin trading
wow.. just wow. this is an amazing tutorial, I feel so comfortable watching this and learning. I feel more confident in using lightroom. I thank you so much for this
This is the jackpot!! I could always do photo touchups using brightness, contrast, and saturation, but i could never get the hues or colors right in photoshop, particularly when it comes to my own skin, which sometimes shows too green or too yellow in certain lights. Thank you s SO SO much!!
Thank you for this tutorial. It was extremely easy to understand especially for somebody like me who's just starting out and have sub zero knowledge about lightroom.
Planning to switch back to Lightroom after using Photoshop Elements for years. Your tutorial was a great help and encouragement, both for the substance of what you shared and your clear delivery. Thanks!
9:00 all of a sudden you have blue ass water 😂 just found this guy, loved the tutorial, would love more tutorials across yt to be as informative and entertained as this!!
Im new to photoshop. I just bought a light room because i want to have a hobby that can make me happy. I hope i learn something new here. Thanks for this subscribed

Thanks, this is great, I want to learn about the next step which is exporting a picture, either for printing or for social media
This is better than many long hour courses I've taken. Thanks! 👏
I’m just starting out with lightroom and thank you so much for this
A very big help budd. Just continue creating videos like to help us improve and inspire others.
Thank you so much! Just what I needed to get started. Only question is that your lightroom layout is different from the way mines look (doesn't have the bar at the top like yours) ... Great video! Mahalo🤙🏼

Yeah my guy!!!!
Professionals watch tutorials all the time??
I mean some professionals do watch tutorials for beginner but i get the point
People are less audience minded these days.
Honestly that was one of the most understandable, intuitive tutorial videos I have ever seen. Many thanks!
wow
Yes! Seriously. Thank you!
Yes thank u
Sh** I was thinking exactly the same ... perfect for a beginner, not trying to sell anything. Awesome content !
that makes me so freaking happy to hear you have no idea lol
Straight to the point, no horrible music or bad jokes or overly friendly BS. Gotta love it.
I love the Twilight 4 joke!
4 years later and still really helpful, thank you so so so much for this!!
I've been playing this video on pause and play on my MacBook while directly applying the tips in Lightroom on my monitor. It's like having a hands on 1 on 1 teacher! Amazing!!!

this is a rare things even more now days
The fact this smart man lets us download the photo that he edits with and fallow the steps deserves 10 mil subs at least!! thank you kind sir !
Can I use this photo, edited in my Instagram to show case that I'm learning editing ?
Rkrti
This is one of the best tutorials I have ever watched. I literally just learned LR in 17 minutes.
I've never really felt comfortable in knowing what I was doing with the tone curve, but this video totally nails it. Great tutorial! So easy to follow. Thank you!
After recently rediscovering my enjoyment for nature photography and looking to get a grasp on editing, this tutorial is nothing short of amazing. Thank you sir!

WAOH i love and like this video , the way you explain how to start and do , it great
its about time someone made a tutorial explaining things like tone curve that i understand LOL
"Blue ass water" earned you a thumbs up 👍rofl
This guy teaches me like I am a child, but I love it, I litterally paid for lightroom courses, and they didnt teach me this well. crazy stuff dude.
I'm definitely a fan of your tutorials now. This was explicit.
This is such a good, straight forward awesome and no "get more here in my masterclass"-bullshit video!!! amazing !!
I would love to see another one of these but working with models who have darker skin tones.
This is the only video that actually helped me learn something on this entire platform

Why does his Lightroom look different from mine? I've noticed this in other videos as well.
I think he's using the desktop version cc (or something like that). It's different from the one adobe loads from the main app
I have the same issue!
@@jodielou same! how can we change this?
I figured it out. We had the mobile version of Lightroom but he has the desktop version. Think it’s called Lightroom C. I downloaded the pack where I get both versions so I have the desktop one that looks like his on my laptop and the one I originally had on my phone and iPad.
