Watch along as I edit three outdoor natural light images for drama and impact, reviving dull skies, and capturing the "dark and moody" feel without losing vibrancy, and maintaining natural skin tones. 

More than just a "watch me edit" video! I provide detailed instructions so you can get the same results, or use the tools shown to get the look YOU desire!

We'll explore:
-selective edits
-masking in both LR and PS
-adding that extra drama
-curves and adjustment layers
-keyboard shortcuts
-editing blown-out skies

What to Expect

I'll go into detail in many of the tools available in LR, and cover adjustment layers and masks in PS.
You'll be able to watch along as I edit three maternity images for drama and impact, reviving dull skies, and capturing the "dark and moody" feel without losing vibrancy, and maintaining natural skin tones.

I'll demonstrate one edit using the actions and presets I use most often (and provide a discount code in case you want to check them out yourself). 

The second and third image will be edited with just the default tools available in your LR and PS Adobe Creative Cloud subscription.

The third image will also give you options for when your sky detail can't be recovered, plus a little bonus tip for dealing with swarms of bugs ;)

*A basic knowledge of Lr and PS is useful prior to viewing this class. If you need help with this, consider a 1:1 mentoring session first.

Reviews
"I use Lightroom but after Tara’s class, I now know that I didn’t truly use Lightroom! An entire world of editing possibilities has opened up :)"

"This class was an incredible value for the hour. I loved that you showed edits with presets and without. I had no idea how easy it was to enhance an amazing sky in photoshop and did not know anything about the range mask in Lightroom which has been so helpful. I’ll pretty much buy any class that you offer!"
