No lie this is one of the few tutorials I genuinely didn't suffer watching. Much love to Terry got that natural teacher gift
Terry explains things so well
Excellent presentation - clear and highly appreciated
Thank you! I was feeling lost and overwhelmed...then I found you! I started out badly but will now get on the path to the correct organization. Whew! (I had to learn the hard way, ugh!)
Just got my son to buy the Adobe Photo Package. He is so lost. This will be his first video to watch. Thank you.
Wonderful tutorial.Many thanks.Should be included with Adobe site,tutorials for the uninitiated.
Terry is sooooooo funny 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I love how he chastises us for bad Adobe behavior. But actually it’s very effective. Because it sears into our brains WHAT are the best practices! So I don’t mind him yelling at us - I like it. Helps me really understand the magnitude of the mistake. That’s why I value his wisdom. In fact, it was through watching Terry’s tutorials that I made the decision to purchase InDesign AND Photoshop!
fantastic for total beginners
Oh my🧐 this was extensive training. However, I learned the proper way to edit my photos.
This video is exactly what I needed!! Now to go in to cleanup my mess in LRC! Yikes!! Thanks so much Terry!!
Excellent work thank you! I didn't realize how powerful Lightroom was.
New to LR..so glad I found this ! Nice work!
What a great video👍🏻 learned a lot in a non boring „make this, than that“ way. Thank you
Thank you so much Terry - this was definitely the tutorial I always needed but never got....till now. Excited to use LR Classic and on to part 2.
New to Lightroom and been pulling my hair out trying to figure out how to begin. This video is exactly what I was looking for. Will now watch Part 2. Thank you.
thanks much for sharing this tutorial, its the BEST I've seen and really appreciate you doing this video, blessings to you and your crew,
Thanks Terry!! This was the best foundational tutorial on LRC. I have been struggling to figure out all the features for weeks.
Fantastic!! 10,000 thank yous!
thank you for the generous free classes :)
You’re welcome.
Another excellent course Terry. Thank you . You are my hero!
Excellent Thanks!
Everything you covered was easy and logical to understand. Thanks.
Terry you are right on time with me regarding this Crash Course! Being a beginner, this really helps me!
Thank you! This answered so many questions I was having as a new photographer. Looking forward to watching more of your tutorials.
Thanks Terry, I have been so confused about how LRC worked until now. I will watch this video a few times to make certain I have the firm foundation necessary to use LRC in my work flow. Much appreciated!

Been using LR for many years, but never knew why I was doing, what I was doing, other than making edits to a photo. This video was very informative and I look forward to the next one... great job! I feel like I've been freed from my Light Room ignorance 👍👍
Thanks Terry, you're a great teacher. The Masterclass helped me understand the key concepts of Lightroom Classic - I was fumbling around and making a complete mess with program. I cleared everything out and started again with your tutorial. You're my hero!

This is AMAZINGLY helpful! I've only been using LR for about 8 months but my files/folders/whatevers were OUT OF CONTROL. I've started fresh, creating a new catalogue and hope to be on the right track! Thanks!!!
Thanks so much. This help me clear up all the things that I have doing wrong.
Always great, Terry!
Hi Terry, Jose from Puerto Rico. This was a wonderful tutorial. Condensed and to the point, and I learned a lot today. You're a very gifted tutor.
Thank you!
Terry, your videos are so very helpful & informative. I've started watching them all! Thanks!
Thank you! Appreciate it.
Thanks Terry fantastic video it has really helped me sort my photos
Thanks for making the organization of photo storage clear to me. Now that I know better I can do better.
s
I learned a lot once again great into
Great tutorial, thank you.
Thank you!!!!!!!!
Hey Terry, watched video. The Iceland error happened when you were going to import. You created Iceland subfolder in Travel, but didn't hit enter, before hitting import therefore sending the imports loose to travel. Your fix after was good to show us what to do if we make the same mistake. Also is it safe to say, the photos in collections are basically shortcuts to their folders of orgins?
This video was very helpful
Thanks Terry, my only solution is to start right over with my filing of Photo's in/on my computer, I just file photo's anywhere and therefore I sit with one hell of a problem. Only after I'm done with this, I can start do it accordingly in LrC. Thanks for your Guidance.
I use the PC version of LRC. I don't even bother with catalogs. Every photo shoot I take I dump all the RAW images in one folder on a different drive other than the "C" drive and name it. When I complete my post production on those RAW images I create a folder inside the RAW image folder and export those RAW images as JPG's into that folder. When I'm done I go to the picture folder of Windows 10 (in the "C" drive) and delete the catalog folder that is created and stored in the picture folder. I repeat the process on other RAW image photoshoot's that I made. Don't want to deal with too many catalogs in the "C" drive that would fill up the "C" drive.
I wish I watched this video when i first started in Lightroom Classic
Thanks so much for the lesson well appreciated, is possible to save from photoshop to the same fold we created?
Excellent video. I just purchased a new Apple Mac Studio computer and downloaded LR Classic and PS for the first time. I have about 16,000 images I need to get into LR. My images are stored in both the Pictures folder in Finder on the new Mac and on an external hard drive. I have all my images under a master folder (i.e. Jim’s images) with subfolders by location under it. My question is, how do I get all these images into LR for the first time. If I follow your video it seems I could drag the “Jim’s Images” master file directly onto the LRc icon, but because of the file size can I add the master folder and all the sub folders all at the same time. Most of my images are JPEGs.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
thanks for this great tutorial - I wish I had watched this before I started working with LR!! I have a question for you, and I 'm HOPING you will be able to help recover the processing i've done in LR around 5 years ago. I had processed photos in LR on my hard drive, and than moved folders off my HD (because I was running out of space). Shouldn't greyed out sub-folders still have existed in LR? I"m trying to recover my processed files, and consolidate my library in a 12 TB hard drive. However, in LR, I no longer see those greyed out folders. Is there any way to recover the history of those processed folders? I did save backups of my LR room catalog files on my external hard drive.
I do have my photos on the Mac desktop in two folders each has its own catalogue. I do make backups onto two separate hard drives. Do you recommend to move them onto Photos where they will be backed-up regularly on top of my manual backing-up ? With Lrc's recent upgrade I had to allow access to my desktop folders, why and how can I undo this option? Thank you
Terry do you have a video for us dinosaurs that started long ago and have several folders and how to reorganize the mess.
Terry - Would that I understood this a long time ago. My Library is a train wreck followed by a couple of natural disasters. Do you have a tutorial on how to clean it up?
So many questions! Why do you have to back up every single day? When you say the catalog has to reside on the drive, do you mean right on the computer and not on an external HD?
To recap what I said: the catalog can be on EITHER the internal drive or an external drive connected directly to the computer and NOT a network drive. I recommend backing up what you don't want to lose. If you don't add new photos everyday, then you may not need to backup every day. Your comfort level of what you can afford to lose is up to you. Backup accordingly.
I have a main folder with 5 sub folders in my pictures directory. When I add to LRC with directory structure the photos all come under the main folder as well as the sub folders. I only want them in the sub folders and not included in the Main folder. Is this possible?
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.Can i delete all my older /other cathalogs What will happen when i start a fresh new lightroom classic? In worse case scenario?
Thanks Terry this is so useful. I have found however that I can't transfer my file structure in the way you did unless it has images in it (which my structure didn't have). Am I doing something wrong?
Yes, in order to copy a structure into LrC there has to be at least one image in each folder.
@@TerryLeeWhite Thanks Terry! So impressed with the way you present, and respond.
How do I hide Lightroom Classic?? i have the very latest updated version of Lightroom Classic and can't figure out where to hide it like you're talking about around the 4 minute mark.
Thanks, Terry, for this class however, it does not matter what I do I CANNOT see the images on the folder I want. I tried the forum but, no one can really answer this question.
I'm so frustrated with trying to import images into Lightroom that I'm so ready to switch to Capture One Pro, ON1 or Skylum Luminar 4.
From library:
-I select the source
-Import Photos and Videos.
-Destination: (I create a new sub folder on the destination folder)
- I make sure that Don't Import Selected Files is checked (It doesn't matter if it is selected or not)
-Click import........
The system takes a while, it shows the images blah, blah, blah NOTHING!!!!!!!
I can see all the images grayed out. Nothing has been imported.
Then I go through the ever annoying steps to see if, they are the right file or, synchronize the folder or, optimize the catalog or, select all or new images or, uninstall - re-install the LR. Jeez!
After WASTING time trying to save my images from a SD card to my computer using LR, I end up using Bridge to copy those images to my destination folder. But, of course. LR doesn't know how to deal with that, and then nothing really works. Now I have lots of duplicate images everywhere! Oh, and the software keeps making subfolders with dates that are redundant because I'm trying to import into a folder that was named after that date (2022)
Is there a FAIL PROOF way to import those images and not having LR screw up. Or, is there a way for LR to be able to open the images after being imported using a more reliable method like Bridge or operating system!?
I use a Windows 11
The latest version of LR CC (11.3.1) NOT the cloud version.
Cache has been cleared, Uninstalled and Installed twice, the destination drive has plenty of space for the images, don't import copies has been tried with and without the check mark.
What am I doing wrong with this software?! I followed all the steps you outline. It worked with some folders, but not with some?!
Thanks in advance for your help.
should I need to terminate my previous subscription adobe lightroom and subscribed to a anew Lightroom classic, am new and confuse which is better than the other, please advice,
Very educating class I must say Terry.
I tried this drag and drop of my organized structure, but I’m unable to import the empty folders into Lightroom. I thought you said it didn’t matter.
Nope, empty folders will not import.
@@TerryLeeWhite ok. Thanks for the feedback Terry! Your classes are exceptional.
Thank you!
💖
Terry, can we talk about reorganizing my LR catalog on my PC? What is your hourly rate?
Hi Terry if I am keeping my photos on external drive are the folder s made on the external drive thanks
Yes
Also how to move catalogs and make them collections. Thank you
Why LR is not longer switching to PS when I open a file? Is there any setting for this?
Thank you in advance :)
I created the structure just as you said, but when I drag it onto Lrc, it opens in LRC in date order instead of the named folders. Can you tell me where I have gone wrong, please? Thanks.
I've worked it out - need to use "add" not "copy" - thanks Terry, I found this on one of your older videos.
On 15:17 of the video you state to drag and drop the structure we created on the OS folder. I do that, drag from my computer and drop it on the Lightroom icon but it only imports the folders that were created in my structure but only the ones that have pictures in them. Can you please help me?
I stated a few times that empty folder’s would be ignored. You have to put at least one photo in each.
Thank you@@TerryLeeWhite . Completely missed that. I thought I was doing something wrong.
My God I wish I had seen this video 10 years ago lol
Where's Part Two? King Terry lol

wonderful. Should be a compulsory video before ever using LR!!! Save so much time and mistakes.
How to I change from adobe lightroom to Lightroom classic
Install LrC and enable syncing. All of your Lr images and Albums will sync down.
