I may have learned more about editing in this video than I have in all my years of Lightroom. Thank you!

[@alexanderpons9246]

Oh wow, thanks Vanessa Joy for pointing out the idea of exposing for the highlights! Yes, in Post Production one can open up the shadow areas. Thanks ADORAMA for having great videos on your channel!

[@venuhero15]

I liked your energy and all the great info. The sunlight addition was a great tip. Would I be able to download it from your website?

[@brianknight7208]

I'm going to look into getting myself one of those automatic reflector holders.

[@jgaffney567]

I think the cost of upkeep maybe prohibitive. Something you may want to look into before commiting.

[@JayJanePhotography]

Sun flares definitely add drama to the pictures. I've been doing it with brushes to make round specular fake light sources. I haven't tried the gradient tool. Nice to know. Thanks for the tips!

[@VanessaJoy]

Definitely a fun trick!

[@thats_mr_b_]

For that tilt shift you don’t have to give me exact numbers but what exactly are you tweaking in that as far as like setting/color wise if that’s OK to ask

[@VanessaJoy]

It’s lowering the texture/clarity/sharpness/contrast and raising the saturation

[@eshanhalapanavar6774]

Does Lightroom produce good canon Colors?

[@VanessaJoy]

I like it 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@eltonchimhau]

1 st to comment 😊😊😊😊

[@VanessaJoy]

Yayyyy thanks for the ❤️

[@natestain7103]

Ahh! Drawing fake golden hour sunlight flares in post! The ultimate way to get the shot you want :)

[@aimanshafiq9582]

Its not fake.the flare is already there but she just bump up the colour/saturation or temperature using selection ..

[@thomastuorto9929]

Heck, with your editing skills, you didn’t even have to goe outside & freeze your butt off.

[@VanessaJoy]

lol I suppose, but then it wouldn’t be photography
