Decoding Lightroom

While we all know Adobe Lightroom is basically the king of the hill when it comes to photographic post-production software at the moment, decoding Lightroom for a non-pro user is easier said than done.

There are a LOT of moving parts.

Now the upside of that is that Lightroom is also incredibly powerful – so much so that for probably 90% of photographers, it's the only program they use. Workflow, editing all the way through to getting print-ready – Lightroom does the lot.

But where to start?

Well, in very general terms, once you're in the develop module, you work your way down the right column.

Ok ok, I know somebody is going to jump on that, but it is an approximation of the workflow. The devil is in the details.

Getting to grips with the finer points… well, that can take some time.

And perhaps the more important part – establishing your own style – well that can take years.

Now it's always helpful when somebody shows your their workflow and style, but the real gold exists when people show you how to find your own.

Decoding Lightroom is a video resource by professional photographer, Adam Welch, whose style of stunning landscape photography is highly regarded.
