Removing Things

In most cases when I want to make some changes like removing stuff from the image I make a right click on the image in Lightroom and open it up in photoshop. But especially if I just want to make some basic changes that takes way too much time. So thats why I use this „Correction“ feature in Lightroom that allows me to remove stuff simply and fast. Just paint over the part that you want to remove and here we go it’s done. So don’t waste a lot of time waiting for photoshop if it’s not that much that you want to do.

Lights Out

But now lets move on with number 2 and this one is all about Lights-out. If I want to double check my images without having this background here from Lightroom I simply press L on my keyboard to make the background darker. If I press L again the background is completely dark and after pressing L again its back to normal. And that’s something that I highly recommend to use to be sure that everything looks great before you export your image.

Color Adjustments

But the next one is something that I really like to use to make some color adjustments. If I want to change the HUE for example and I don’t want to use all these sliders here I simply make a click on this symbol right here. The next step is to hold alt and click on the part of the image that you want to change and use the scroll or swipe feature of your mouse to make some adjustments. That is especially great if you want to make adjustments to skin colors for example.

Radial Filter

But now let’s move on with number 4 and this is the radial filter. Whenever you want to use it it’s always a little bit annoying to set it up for the full image. You have to drag it around / move it around and yeah. But if you add a filter to your image and press command and make a double click on the filter the radial filter fills up the image. So definitely don’t waste your time to get is in the right position just use this short cut here and you are set.

Fast Editing

And the next feature is something that I really like to do. If I took a couple of photos and I made a preset for this photo session I always had to go though all the pictures on by one and add my preset to them. But that’s extremely annoying and way to much work. What I do instead is to make the color correction for one picture and then I simply select all the pictures that I want to use and click on synchronize. Now Lightroom will make the same adjustments to all the selected pictures for me and right after that I simply need to check if everything is fine and then they are ready for export.

So yeah these are 5 Lightroom tips tricks and hacks that you should use to make your own workflow way easier.
