Been using Lightroom for yeeeears but I still watched with interest and still learned some things! I feel like Adobe softwares are so rich that even their developers would learn new things from watching tutorials 😅 I agree that this video and series can act as, like, a handbook for Lightroom. The timestamps help too for jumping quickly to answers! Wonderfully produced video and very helpful, as always 💯 Keep it up!! 🙌🏼

Not knowing all of this was the mistake I made last week when I put 500 photos into the catalog (at least it was a specific catalog for that shoot). Thank you for this

Your videos are so helpful, it's a huge benefit help for someone who's just getting started. I have 3 questions: - in the end, what do you do with the subfolders Web Finals / Full Res Finals / Additional Images / Revisions? - do you only shoot in Raw or JPEG as well? - how do you export/handle final edited pictures, to be used for a website or instagram for eg? Thanks
