I would be really interested in how you find locations and how you prefer to frame your shots😊Also, exporting and best techniques for quality prints😁 Amazing tutorial, I really enjoyed going through your personal edit style!
Pat, you're one of my favorite photography and editing TH-camrs right now. Your stuff is so clean, clear, and just aligns with my photography philosophy. Love your educational series too. Keep up the good work and don't stop creating.
We need more of this! I have watched this for like Idk? About twenty-seven times now? We need more end-to-end workflow! From landscape to portrait to street! Awesome frickin' style btw. I like how you utilize camera-color calibration in lightroom.
12:14 This idea of pushing groups of color makes so much sense to me-I've never heard it put that way and it "clicked" all of a sudden. The color calibration video you did was awesome, btw.
I'm new to Lightroom and this is one of the most clear and practical explanations I've seen yet. Thanks for making the whole editing process a bit less intimidating for us noobs! Also bought your Japan Photo Guide for a recent trip and found it to be an invaluable resource.
Hi! I’m a Japanese guy. And I’m fan of you as well. Thanks for sharing your skills. It meant me a lot and gave me inspiration. Keep it up and hope to see another edit video😁
Pat, this was a fabulous video. Thank you for taking the time to make it. I struggle in editing my own images, but by having videos like this one and others, it shows me the thinking and process of editing. As a visual learner, this really helps!
Your eye for small details is mindblowing!! Do you ever fall into a dilemma whether to keep the image as accurate as possible compared to reality, or alter it to your own liking?
Love your teaching style, discovering your channel is a revelation! Great to see you talking in an authentic natural voice, compared to some TH-camrs who think they have to talk really fast and hyped up. Your style makes it easier to listen and learn from you, so thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Amazing work! This has taught me to slow down with my editing, and be more mindful of my desired subject. I speed through it and make all decisions on the fly. No more!
I really loved this video…the way you explain things , so clean, so clear , you are a great teacher mate, pls keep up with this good content. The podcast is great too!…I wish to see how you approach picture with photoshop!,
Man I really appreciate the thoughtful and analytical approach to your workflow, but more importantly, to your explanation. Super helpful to me as a student of the craft
Currently airplaying this to my TV because it helps to visualize the photo and the work being done… but my god by step 4 my mouth was open ❤️💪🏼 you have some skills and a new follower hope to see more of these! I have been trying to get that anime WB look for sooo long thank you for that!
Im following you on instagram like a a year, and i just realized you have a youtube channel too. Your videos are so helpfull to me. I mean other creators want us to pay for this knowledge, so thank you Pat Kay, you are the best for me 🙂
New to photography. An honest assessment from someone who is still scared shooting in full manual mode..... I felt this is by far the finest, the most comprehensive tutorial I have seen on TH-cam that gave you a glimpse, an insight into what a professional is thinking when he starts his post production workflow. Absolutely loved this tutorial and would love to see more tutorials showing you doing different types of edits.
I thought I was going to hate this video. Never have I been interested in photography....NEVER! Long story short, I am looking into grabbing the A7siii (wanted the FX3) and now interested in trying my hand at taking urban/street photography. Also, making an effort to learn how to edit (video/photo) in adobe looks fun, although, my start was on FCPX, but lacks photo editing in my opinion. Long video but learned a lot and well worth the watch. Keep up the great work!
That was very cool, I think you did a good job explaining your thought process, and having it broken down in sections is useful. Videos on composition (I really like your use of negative space), color calibration and tone curves would be awesome. Would also love a video about lenses and how to play with focal lengths to achieve different feels (background compression for example).
@@patkay great news :D also just curiosity, have you considered streaming in any way? I would really like to watch one of those editing sessions live, and would give you the opportunity to interact with your viewers too
Why did I just find out you had a youtube channel?! Been following you on instagram for ages, and damn, this videos do not disappoint. Thanks so much for sharing! Huge fan!
Really great tutorial! Little different than I am editing usually, which was fantastic. Love the way you reduced the color cast and enhanced the colors. Will try some of your techniques. Thanks!
Really enjoyed this thorough process! I like to take a lot of portraits but I find when I edit them in lightroom it has a big effect on skin tones. Could you perhaps make a tutorial like this but with portraits and explain how you can combat it in lightroom?
Amazing video. I started messing around with Lightroom, and have no idea what I'm doing, especially with the color, and this just blew my mind. Thank you!
Hi! I loved your video and I would like to thank you for your way of speaking because as not English native speaker I could understand everything you said while watching ✨ Have a nice day ☺
great video! i still at 5:24 where restoring is the start line of the editing ( just realized that my current photo editing way is just a restoring process for you . )
dude this video seriously upped my LR game, thank you so much. I am scared of looking at old photos now because I know they are horrendously processed haha. Cheers!
Achievement unlocked - PAT'S editing style Reward: unlocked "Pats editing style" lvl 1 Thanks for another great video! Super helpful! Do you play around much with colour theory and the psychology behind it?
haha congrats on the achievement, now to cop that plat. many levels to go! ;) and yeah, I do, a lot. as someone who has a background in more traditional art and design, it's something I use heaps!
Thank you for this video! I haven't used LR for so long and realised I never knew how to use it fully before...so much to learn! :) Cheers from Melbourne!
Fantastic video and really helpful. Even more helpful than the stuff you used to put on patreon. Seeing the changes in real time helped me understand some things, e.g. ESL, way better than before. Thanks for making this video Pat, I hope there'll be more like this!
That was a great tutorial and incredible finished product! Thank you for sharing, and for talking so candidly about what works for you. I often wonder why I'm using certain tools, and will just chock it up to "because I think it looks better". I appreciate you going in depth explaining the calibration and HSL settings which have always been intimidating and something I simply avoid.
Not trying to be negative here, but just stating an observation. As a full-time photographer myself I totally get the need to put in much time and effort to edit photos the way you have shown here. Sad truth is most people would just take a glance at the photos on Instagram and double click on the image for an obligatory “Like” before moving on to the next post. Most won’t even care about what you have done, or the time you have put in to make the image pop. That is partially due to the many posts that is popping up daily, if not hourly, on their feed, made worst if they are following a few thousand people on the platform. I gave up Instagram after a few years and finally found freedom.
I always take my contrast slider down about 15 before jumping into the tone curve, just to counter any camera added contrast and giving the curves more control over the image. Then can always add a little back in later
This feels like an incredibly basic question, one I should know the answer to, but that has given me some trouble-how do you set the brightness of the monitor you use for editing, and how do you think about that in terms of printing an image vs. exporting a digital image for IG or other media?
Thanks for sharing your workflow. I will take a close look at some of my old pictures that I thought would be ruined and see if I can bring a little life through changing the colors the way you did.
best tutorial, clear precise and easy to follow thank you for sharing this tutorial definitely changed my work. I would like to see on day light with the nature.
What kind of editing tutorial would you like to see next?
I would be really interested in how you find locations and how you prefer to frame your shots😊Also, exporting and best techniques for quality prints😁 Amazing tutorial, I really enjoyed going through your personal edit style!
Nature stuff please!
Calibration, definitely.
Color Calibration, could be a great tutorial!
can u do a portrait editing tutorial please?
Loved this video please do one with a model, to see how you deal with skin tones!!
Second this
coco cola has spent billions on promoting their red and white logo only to have you turn it orange
Pat, you're one of my favorite photography and editing TH-camrs right now. Your stuff is so clean, clear, and just aligns with my photography philosophy. Love your educational series too. Keep up the good work and don't stop creating.

I really love the mood of your photograph, and this video was so far the best tutorial on TH-cam👍
Looking forward seeing your next post:)
thanks for watching!

You are amazing, I'm glad I discovered you.

Fantastic walk-through! Split-toning is something I've been missing. Thanks for all the great info on your channel.
Split toning is now the color grading for those who pay for lightroom license
Invaluable. Thank you for letting us be a fly on the wall for your full process.
More more more! I would love to watch you edit different compositions, day time & different focal lengths!
Your eye for small details is mindblowing!! Do you ever fall into a dilemma whether to keep the image as accurate as possible compared to reality, or alter it to your own liking?
Brooowwww You just change my whole game brow, thank u so much... 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
ps. those littles shortcuts help a lot
Would love an updated version of this considering LRC/ ACR updates
Thank you for explaining this so well
Thank you!

Hello Pat.
Didn’t mention how I love your tutorials and how you deliver clear and very,very useful information.
Thanks a lot!
Im following you on instagram like a a year, and i just realized you have a youtube channel too. Your videos are so helpfull to me. I mean other creators want us to pay for this knowledge, so thank you Pat Kay, you are the best for me 🙂
I am not using LR for now, only CR and PS but this is great video. You explain very well and I think I can use the principles in CR. Thank you.
Amazing! Thank you for this tutorial.

The pre-instagram crop is a lot better in my opinion.
Thanks for the video!

I’m wondering why the crop wasn’t first in the tutorial? Great edit- love the style!
Thanks Pat

You explain everything so simply, is really good... Doesn't this blues bulb you use over the desk changes how you look at the colour?
Great video, the only thing missing was the export settings.
Thank you for your time and presentation. My head is happily full now... appreciated
Hell yes. Another editing video!!!! 💯💯💯
hope you like this one!

Amazing tutorial. You’re a gem Pat! Happy to have found your channel
Great video Pat…thanks!
Awrsome. I think i personally liked it wide before your vertical crop
Yeah I like it better too, but you know, Instagram.
Thank you so much....you definitely open my eyes on massaging colour !!!
I learned a lot. thanks a lot!
Loved this. No frills, straight to the point. Succinct , yet informative. More please!
Would you show us how to use curves and local adjustments on a deeper way? Thanks for these kind of videos, it's really good quality content!
possibly in a future video!
Such a good video
That was a great tutorial and incredible finished product! Thank you for sharing, and for talking so candidly about what works for you.

yay great! =)

Thanks Pat. I’ve used Lightroom since it’s very beginning and learned things I hadn’t understood before. Great job sir!
Great Video, great Picture 📷👍🏼!
Really cool to see your thought process behind the editing. Thanks a lot for sharing.
I always take my contrast slider down about 15 before jumping into the tone curve, just to counter any camera added contrast and giving the curves more control over the image. Then can always add a little back in later
Great video, but I’d love to see you do one on editing your landscape pics.
Very interesting. Good to keep learning others perspectives and subjective choices. Is there an up to date version with new Lr tools?
ayee keeping up with the uploads bro good work
this consistency is fun haha
Wonderful! I love your pace and it's just a golden nugget all through
Great content, thought process and workflow. Enjoyed watching every second.

The PieMuffin approves! Love the walk-through !
We have very similar taste. I love moody photos I can feel. You explained your photo style very well. Thanks for this you got a new sub.
This is the best lightroom tutorial in youtobe, Sir
This is pure gold
Awesome man !
best tutorial, clear precise and easy to follow
thank you for sharing this tutorial definitely changed my work. I would like to see on day light with the nature.
love it thank you for this video
Great video man!
thanks Paul!
Can you explain what each setting means? Like - What does the histogram depict? What information do i gather with it?
