Local Heroes: Local Adjustment Tool Tricks in Lightroom

Most photographers don’t take enough advantage of Lightroom’s Amazing Local Adjustment tools: the Adjustment Brush, the Radial Filter and the Graduated Filter. If you find yourself jumping over to Photoshop for all your local edits, you’re not only burning through valuable hard drive space more quickly, but also wasting valuable time. It’s like losing money twice!

In this session, you’ll learn

• Why it’s best to stay in Lightroom as long as you can with your images

• How Lightroom’s powerful new features such as Local HSL controls let you tackle many problems you used to need Photoshop for

• Why Range Masks are probably the best new feature introduced in Lightroom over the last five years

• How Radial Filters can save you loads of time

• How to create tool presets and local adjustment presets to speed up your workflow even more

There is more to Lightroom than the Basic Panel. Prepare to be wowed by this session that will show you some Lightroom techniques didn’t hold possible.
