Spot on, I also went looking everywhere for this exact information and was frustrated to the point of giving up Lightroom all together ... really helpful, thanks!!
Now, this is the most thorough and concise explanation on Lightroom, catalog storage. It also covers the basics of files and folders. After watching countless so called heavy hitters and adobe evangelist, this is by far the very best. I will continue to follow you! Thanks!
This was exactly what I was seeking, clear simple explanation, no super hype or how great are we (we don’t really do that in the UK, so I find it off putting in some tutorials from the Northern Americas). at a reasonable no nonsense pace, one of the better educators on TH-cam, great work, I appreciate your hard work for others benefit, thanks for this, Marcus
Clear, concise, and intelligently communicated. I have been "trying" to teach myself Lightroom for about 6 months now. Pick it up, get discouraged, walk away, repeat. Even bought a video course online which I never watched, videos too long and too intricate. I'm so glad I found you, or rather Google found you for me.
Great video - loved how you succinctly, clearly and comprehensively explained all things catalogues. If not already, could you please do a video to show how can we merge catalogues (if at all), move catalogues, recover back ups, and also what the different types of files associated with the catalogues are (I noticed there are 2-3 different files)? Thanks
first video i have found that i could follow had lightroom for 8 years and you explain in simple to follow terms thanks will def follow keep up the good work.
Oh, well... Finally I understand the whole catalogue/organisation part of Lightroom. Thank you so much for this video, looking forward to the next one.
Wow, thanks! Glad you found it so useful. It definitely took some setup and practice to get the audio and lighting like this, so I'm happy to hear it works well!
Excellent presentation Spencer. I had difficulty understanding the LR Catalogue in relation to my photos but you have just cleared the fog. Thank you. Have enjoyed previous photography videos you have presented and am very impressed with your presentations. Clear, detailed and to the point. Look forward to more LR videos.
As others have said (they are very familiar with LR), I found your videos to be a very concise review of the features of LR. I deeply appreciate your time in producing them and will subscribe to be able to receive more. Having taught for 32 years, I am impressed with your teaching skills. Thanks
Really helpful, thank you, I had nearly given up with cataloging in Lightroom, now I understand it far more, I’m looking forward to your other videos now 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you, Sanjay! I have many videos on Lightroom planned and a lot of time to film them, so I’m hopeful that this will be a pretty complete guide by the end.
@@PhotographyLifeChannel Is there a way, that you can help me with my D.A.M ?? I honestly am begging for help and I can't find anyone who will sit down and help me out with my it
@ALI - What issues are you having? If it’s something general with Lightroom, maybe you’ll find Chapter 2.1 and 2.2 of this video series helpful for organizing your photos and general DAM applications. If it’s more specific than that, let me know some more details and I’ll try to help.
Wow. You're like so good at doing tutorials. I've been using Lr for years yet I feel like I just relearned everything from your video. Very beginner friendly as well.
Congratulations, very calm super well explained, great examples. This is a fantastic video for new users,and even old ones. Five stars, a falg and a Red label 😊 and go to a smart collection. Congratulations again,really good
Very glad to hear it! I don't have a book on Lightroom, although I wrote a guide so long that it basically qualifies. Here's the link: photographylife.com/how-to-use-lightroom-a-tutorial-for-beginners I *have* written a book about landscape photography, which is going to be released later this year :)
Thanks Spencer..I had the chance to play with Lightroom 3-4months ago, and didn't really get it. Im about to go purchase it now and jump in, but keen to view as much as I can re file/folder set up so I am better armed when I get it. Ive watched many Tube videos, but a lot of them rush it - yours (and one other) go at a good pace and break it down. Thank you so much for explaining what a Catalogue is as I was very confused on it. Looking forward to your next video about importing etc........
Thank you, Silvia! Next chapter will be up Monday, and then I’ll do some on the post-processing side of Lightroom. Might take a break and do non-Lightroom videos in between though.
Great vid. Explained everything clearly and concise. I just moved all my pictures from my hard drive to an external harddrive using windows explorer. When i opened up Lightroom, it said the catalog was missing (it's probably on the external drive), so i created a new one....so now i have to teach LIghtroom where all my pictures are. How will i do that? I guess by making a new folder, within lightroom, called "my pictures" and that will be the top folder on my external harddrive with all my pictures in it......
Would like to see this procedure on a Windows machine. I have tried to correlate the your information from Apple information...the fog is slightly lifted but still unclear...presentation is super...will try to figure out what Apple and Windows are alike...I have tried and tried to find a source for Windows version of what you have accomplished...You are the closest yet...thank you...
That was a terrific presentation, very comprehensive and quite useful. Having said that...I still can't figure them out. Probably because when I first got LR I didn't think to learn about the catalog structure, only the editing features. As a result, that left column is now harder to decipher than Linear-A. What a mess! Half the picture names are greyed out from having moved pictures to different folders after I edited them, etc. And I'm mystified by other folders and pages that Lightroom has put on my wallpaper in addition to the LR CAT icon. Things labeled "LRCAT-WAL File", a "Helper.LRdata" folder, a "Catalog Helper.lrdata" folder, etc. Do I need to keep these things in place for LR to work? I'm scared to trash them, but they're annoying to look at. Ah well, didn't mean to vent. Your information was excellent and your style of presentation is spot-on. Thank you for it!
I did that also. Learned to edit before learning to organize. I keep my photos on an external SSD and once that drive was full I moved lots of my folders to a backup drive to make room. Now I have the task of letting LR know where those are. I'm lazy, so that's not happened. Now, when I go looking for a photo that's been moved, it is a pain in the ass. Too bad Spenser did not do this video two years ago.
@Dangerspouse - It sounds like you've got a tricky situation with your Lightroom catalog! Here's what I recommend. First, close Lightroom, and delete all the weird ".LRdata" or whatever files. The only one you may want to keep is the one that called "[currentcatalogname] Previews.LRdata" because that's the cache of previews for your photos. (If you delete it too, no worries, you'll just have to wait a moment to regenerate the standard or 1:1 previews you have.) Beyond that, if you're happy with the folder organization *outside* of Lightroom, and it's only the internal organization that's a mess, here's what I recommend. First, go back to your current catalog and highlight every photo that *isn't* broken, missing, or otherwise incorrect. (Also highlight any missing files that you've edited extensively in Lightroom and really like.) Go to File > Export As Catalog. Export all of that as a new catalog file, and put the new catalog in the proper place on your hard drive that you want it to be. Open it instead of the other one next time you launch Lightroom. This will be your new, default catalog, and it shouldn't have any missing folders or other junk. However, it also probably won't capture many of your photos, so now's the time to start importing the rest. Click "Add" at the top of the import dialog so you don't move the files at all, and keep the organization on your hard drive itself. None of these newly imported photos will have any edits applied; if you want a photo's old Lightroom edits in your new catalog, you need to follow that "Export As Catalog" process instead. Only after all that should you start to reorganize your hard drive if you want - and from here on out, do all the folder reorganization within Lightroom itself. Hope this helps you get started! Your situation sounds tough but not unfixable.
@Steve Miller - That sounds about right! Lightroom is very finicky about moving your files outside the software. I'd say it's probably worth syncing those external drive files as soon as possible, just because a handful of missing photos here and there can snowball into a catalog that is impossible to understand a few years later. At least right now you know where those photos are. (And if they're largely grouped together how they used to be, Lightroom can probably locate many of them as a batch to save time.) Good luck!
@@PhotographyLifeChannel Thank you very much for taking the time to write all that out for my benefit - I really appreciate it! I'll get right to this (nothing else to do in lockdown) and hopefully it will become more intuitive over time. Thanks again, really!
Found this while searching for Lightroom catalog and wow, you are such an amazing teacher. Seriously, so clear and simple to follow. You have a special talent here. May I ask a question? I had to make a new catalog and then "add" my photos to it. But of course, the edits are all gone. New "RAW" images are there without the edits. Can I import the edits? I don't know how. Thank you. I've subscribed.
Sure thing! You can do what you’re interested in. What you need to do is open the old catalog, and highlight all the photos you want to have the edits for. Go to File > Export As Catalog and do not select “export negative files.” After exporting this, go back to your catalog that is missing all the edits. You should be able to do File > Import From Another Catalog and select the file that you just exported from your old catalog. And that will sync the edits! All that said, I question why you created a new catalog in the first place - it’s usually not worth it and not a good idea. It may be best to stick with your previous catalog and clean it up if there’s something wrong with it, rather than starting a new one from scratch.
Thank you for your time! Yeah, I'd prefer to go back to my old catalog after all the edits but I must have done something funky. My iMac updated and then Adobe updated Classic and relaunched without my catalog. When I went back to my old catalog Adobe said it needed to be updated, I clicked "OK" and none of my folders were there. Just a new LR classic. Now it appears the original is no longer usable. Not sure what I did. @@PhotographyLifeChannel
Thank you. Is there a way to to have LrC, or another software that you know of, add words from the title of images into the keyword list automatically?
Amazing video thank you so much!!! I have a problem in that I have created several catalogs and I think some are on my one drive and some are not. I want to combine them all, do you have a tutorial on that?
Hi Spencer, thanks for your video. Pretty useful! I have been looking for this answer for a while but do you know whether we can move the catalogue on a NAS? So From home, I can switch between my fix computer and my laptop. Else I agree I could copy it on an external hard drive, but... I agree it is not a big deal to move my small hdd from one computer to the other one.... but it would be so much more convenient having access to a NAS. Hope you can answer me or give me some tips... Cheers, Alex.
I'm currently using the subscription model of Lightroom, which I believe is v13-3. Yet in my Lightroom folder I still have older versions of Lightroom such as version 5 & 6. Can I delete the older versions?
I upgraded to the newer version of Lightroom and it asked me something about catalog and I just said okay but it started brand new catalog and I can't get access to all of my previous photos. Please help thank you
I wish you could do every tutorial for me for anything ever. Clear, concise, and to the point. Love it! Well done
Omg I went through a dozen videos about lightroom and was so frustrated. Then I watched yours. I love how you teach. Very clear and to the point. Thank you so much!!!
Spot on, I also went looking everywhere for this exact information and was frustrated to the point of giving up Lightroom all together ... really helpful, thanks!!
same here! by far the easiest to understand
Did i ever...almost went crazy
Now, this is the most thorough and concise explanation on Lightroom, catalog storage. It also covers the basics of files and folders. After watching countless so called heavy hitters and adobe evangelist, this is by far the very best. I will continue to follow you!
Thanks!
The clarity in you tutorials is excellent. You give space for the information to sink in.
This was exactly what I was seeking, clear simple explanation, no super hype or how great are we (we don’t really do that in the UK, so I find it off putting in some tutorials from the Northern Americas). at a reasonable no nonsense pace, one of the better educators on TH-cam, great work, I appreciate your hard work for others benefit, thanks for this, Marcus
That’s great to hear, thanks for the feedback and glad you found the explanation useful.
Clear, concise, and intelligently communicated. I have been "trying" to teach myself Lightroom for about 6 months now. Pick it up, get discouraged, walk away, repeat. Even bought a video course online which I never watched, videos too long and too intricate. I'm so glad I found you, or rather Google found you for me.
I’m really glad to hear it! Hope you enjoy Lightroom. After the first learning curve, it’s great and pretty intuitive.
First time LR user and this is the very first video I've watch. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Absolutely the best tutorial on Lightroom that I have seen. Many thanks.
This is the best explanation I've seen. There are so many that speed thru their own personal setup. Thank you for this.
I find lightroom so frustrating but with the help of your video I understand it better! thank you so much
Even though I've had LR for about two years, these videos are very enlightening. Thanks, Spencer.
Very happy to hear it, Adrian! Hope you enjoy the rest as well.
