In this week’s episode, we discuss 6 dirty Lightroom secrets photographers refuse to talk about. The six tricks I review in this video are all things I've picked up over the years that you rarely hear spoken about and have applied to my editing workflow. These Lightroom secrets are a great way to add a bit of spice back into a photograph. Lets face it, sometimes what we experience when we're on-location doesn't always accurately come through in our final image and this 6 tricks are a great way to add some flare back to our photos.I hope you enjoy this week's video and as always thanks so much for watching! - Mark D.

🤐QUICK POLL: Would you consider this “cheating”?

@liverpoolpictorial Год назад

Not since you showed me how do them in your excellent tutorial😉

@MarkDenneyPhoto Год назад

@@liverpoolpictorial Love that answer🙌

@jamesvooghtphotography Год назад

Nope. Not cheating. Having shot on film most of my life, using Lightroom and/or Photoshop to make your photos look more like PHOTOS rather than a desktop background that is crunchy, to use your words. Funny thing is I do about 90% of this with Photoshop... thanks for the ideas for some more of it.

@EduardLopezArcos Год назад

Absolutely not! It's about improving the image in order to transmit some mood. It's like giving some kind of soul to the scene.

@MarkDenneyPhoto Год назад

@@jamesvooghtphotography Thanks a million for the comment James!

@agillis00 Год назад

I got into photography a few years ago and have been following the channel for a while. It’s genuinely, a really cool and reaffirming feeling in being able to correctly guess how you’re going to edit your photos in the video based on the name you give them. All of them are great tips too!

@MarkDenneyPhoto Год назад

Thanks so much for following along Alex!

@kenstickrod840 Год назад

No I wouldn't call these type of "enhancements" cheating. I've picked up and use many of these techniques that you have shown quite regularly. As you said it brings things closer to what I saw and also takes my photos to a different level. Something more enjoyable and perhaps a bit more dramatic to view. And as a side note working on my photos implementing many of these tips is a great way to spend my time and bringing that photo to the next level gives me a "warm fuzzy" and a sense of accomplishment.

@anonymouspdg6121 Год назад

I'm 50/50 with this. The techniques are brilliant so thanks for the tutorial. However I actually like the original more than the edited image. It's so subjective though as one isn't better or worse than the other, it's just personal preference?

Random off topic comment: a while a go you did a video about packing camera gear for flight travel. I will be going to Iceland this summer for a good week and those tips greately helped me in figuring out how i pack my gear ( i have a shimoda action X30) for the trip ! Wanted to post this for a while but you know how life goes! While in nation air-travel is basically not a thing in europe (i live in switzerland) i just dont have the expirience for such things. Just wanted to say that :)

@MrBaclofene Год назад

Hi Mark! Thank you for talking about these important editing tricks. I've been discussing and learning them with my teacher just a couple of weeks ago. What I like is that you can achieve the same results in many different ways and everyone has its own personal taste. Lightroom has gone through a lot of changes and they added a lot of new features in the past few years so everything's easier now. You can also mix lightroom and photoshop or use the camera raw filter. My personal thought is that every change should be very soft and subtle, the real challenge is not to overdo. Nice video! Keep up the good work. Cheers from Italy!👍🏻

@MarkDenneyPhoto Год назад

Thanks so much my friend!

Excellent video Mark! I’ll use some of these tips for some photos this year, when you made the minor adjustments on the tone curve, I immediately could see how much more pleasing your photo looked.

@MarkDenneyPhoto Год назад

Thanks David! Glad to hear it was helpful.

@L.Spencer Год назад

I'd like to see more examples on how to use the negative dehaze. And what do you mean when you say it looks "flat" near the end? I had someone say that about one of my photos yesterday, and I think they meant that the colors looked flat, but then I was thinking maybe it had to do with things looking pushed together like when you use a telephoto. But in my case, I think they meant what I first understood. I'd like to know more about what looks flat and how to fix it.

@TravisHenson777 Год назад

You’re the Bob Ross of editing.

@tugmaster62 Год назад

@ftedward Год назад

Mark please explain, the video background..how you made the dark and pink and the water stand out with all the dark tone ? Basically your tutorial on the video page background itself, page it's beautiful

@jacquelinedegroot1785 Год назад

Thank you, Mark, for sharing your tricks and tips. To het an impressionistic look, would you in some cases still go to PS for the Orton effect? And if so, which video of yours would you recommend to watch in order to learn how to do it? Thanks in advance for your reply, Jacqueline

@jacquelinedegroot1785 Год назад

Hi Mark, I hope you will be able to ask my question too. ☺️ Kind regards! Jacqueline

@tonycolburn2358 Год назад

I could really use your help! This seems like a good candidate to use a short exposure to keep the leaves sharp and then a longer exposure to get the desired effect for the water. Then in post-processing, you use a technique that saves the short exposure and then 'paint' in the slow shutter speed for the water. I can't remember the way you can get this done. Please help!

@dominikkindermann9123 Год назад

Use photoshop and different layers with masks.

@JohnDrummondPhoto Год назад

Cool video. I use most of these techniques myself. Except, I prefer to go to Photoshop to add an Orton Layer to get that impressionistic effect. Sometimes I mask out some of the Orton Layer in foreground areas, and that adds a sense of depth.

@MarkDenneyPhoto Год назад

Thanks a million John! Yes, Orton in PS is a more powerful solution for sure

@tacticaldesigns8794 Год назад

I'm going to disagree with you on what Clarity Texture does. Technically you're right about what Texture does, it looks at the small details, but what it actually does is look at areas of the photo with the highest frequency (or change from one color to the next) while ignoring the lowest frequency (things that tend to be one color) from one pixel to the next. It's much like sharpening in this case but targeting areas with lots of color variations, which is often small detailed areas (not always). Texture can make gravel look crisp while ignoring the clear blue sky. But if there is noise in the sky that we can't clearly see on a large image, then texture would affect the sky. Clarity is much like contrast, except it focuses on the midtone of the color spectrum and either pushes the midtones towards the light and dark or pulls the light and dark towards the center. It doesn't focus on major details. It's why Dehaze is so good to use with Clarity, that if you decrease clarity to reduce midtone contrast (good for skin softening), it can create a glow effect that Dehaze can offset. Basically, lowering Clarity creates a haze, which is why when you decreased both in this image, it worked really well together. I hate to be that guy (I guess I am) to tell you that you're wrong as I respect so many of your videos, but Clarity has nothing to do with larger or small details. Just what do you do with midtones.

@longbow7550 Год назад

Mark, good video as always. I have started using a lot more of your techniques to edit my photos. I hope Adobe doesn't keep adding too many "improvements" to LR. I think it has the power to do everything I could possible want now. I have seen too many programs "improved" past the point of being beneficial! With the growing controversy over AI I hope they don't go overboard in this area. John

Thanks Mark for these editing techniques. I haven’t used Lightroom or Photoshop. I purchased Capture One Pro last year and wonder if you have used it and will the techniques you’ve explained apply to it? Thank you for all you do!

@esspiefotografie4786 Год назад

Hi Mark, many LR techniques which you use and demonstrate I have been using almost unconsciously. Your presentations on LR "show" me that I have "discovered" something new. This is interesting. I find the curve tool quite dangerous and touchy and hence I use it only in specific images, but as subtly as possible. I am still in the process of understanding it. By the way, few shots are posted in my #esspiefotografie. I know, you never comment, but at least you can have a look.

@kennyburkhart3543 Год назад

Good lord this was eye opening. And made me realize just how terrible I am at editing. 😂

@MarkDenneyPhoto Год назад

@victahh281 Год назад

The edits are fantastic in making the photo look more ethereal and painterly. However, in my opinion with the dehaze effect it makes the photograph look a little too desaturated and flat. Obviously a quick fix, but just something to note. Great video as always.

@MarkDenneyPhoto Год назад

Thanks so much! I usually add some targeted contrast to the mid-tones to pump it up a bit.
