[@MatierceK]

Hi Ryan! Does this include the presets from 1:33:26 ? I just bought your basic preset package and am a litte sad that I did not find the radial gradient mask presets

[@yagiyagisan9072]

Without a doubt, this is THE best LRC tutorial online

[@SignatureEdits]

woah thanks so much Yagi! glad it was helpful for u!

[@junebug1553]

I think so too!

[@rwmoore463]

Nice work. You stayed on topic, kept a steady pace of presentation, and kept my attention by staying away from telling little personal stories and ramblings. I took many short breaks, absorbed quality information, and subscribed. You just became my guru. Thanks

[@SignatureEdits]

Thanks! Haha good to know it connected - Although now I’m very tempted to create a video titled “little personal stories and ramblings” ;) Thanks for the sub!

[@puneetshakya3001]

This was the ultimate beginner walkthrough I really loved it and was so smooth thanks for the effort man. Watch it. Easily explained ❤

[@LonkiGames]

Not watched this video yet but you make the best Lightroom tutorials, so I will be watching to see if I have missed something after years of using Lightroom myself

[@SignatureEdits]

Wow, I appreciate that! This one is definitely much more basics & fundamentals vs sneaky little tricks. But hopefully there is a nugget or two in there for you 😃 Appreciate the kind words!

[@krisknutson5399]

Photography is a hobby. New to Lr Classic. I’ve restarted twice and hope the 3rd time will be the charm. I appreciate this for the complete overview from start to finish - complete and slow enough to be able to follow along. Thanks! 🇨🇦living in SW Michigan!

[@krypton211]

Amazing video - I've watched so many Lightroom videos and this was definitely most helpful from start to finish. I loved most the ending of your workflow and seeing how you edit each picture. Just fantastic. Thank you

[@mariusr7535]

One of the best Lightroom Classic tutorials. Logical and succinct. Thank you very much!

[@ViharDholakiya]

the most helpful thing is you gave honest advice to and honest workflow without any sofastication or heavy words.☺

[@mre4973]

I've struggled with LR many times before, always getting overwhelmed by those mysterious panels and sliders. Your teaching style finally made everything click - thank you for explaining it so clearly! When you mentioned being unsure about the calibration panel (1:05:45), I could totally relate. I recently found Mark Denney's video 'Unlocking Lightroom's Darkest Editing Secret!' which explains the Calibration and HSL panels brilliantly. Between your tutorial and his video, I'm finally feeling confident with LR. Thank you!

[@junebug1553]

Thank you so much for this. I am new to photography and Lr C and this was so helpful. Liked and subscribed.

[@Kirk-LS]

Yeah, this is pretty awesome. I like your style... off the cuff with no script. I learned more watching this one video than any of the others I've watched. Thank you so much!

[@SwampyDuckRidesAgain3636]

Defo the most comprehensive beginners tutorial going, thanks.

[@SignatureEdits]

Glad it was helpful! Appreciate the kind words

[@graham_T]

Thank you for this comprehensive video . I am a long time LR Classic user and watched it to see if there was anything I didn’t know about I take it that the first stage of your import process is to move the images from camera to a drive / folder outside of LR Classic then pick them to bring into catalog It is far easier to use the right hand library panel ‘destination ‘ create new folder , name it eg with shoot name / date That way LR moves images from source to the folder and populates catalog at sane time When in catalog using X key to reject as you scroll through then at end of that delete all the rejected from disk and LR In the export process create export presets and also use the feature of batching together the export presets

[@SignatureEdits]

Great tips Graham! Personally I never delete rejects from client shoots - Once in a while a client comes back asking for alternates to a group shot, or I didn't notice I picked the wrong one where she has a double chin or lazy eye or something else I just didn't see on the initial cull. Harddrives are cheap, so I just hold onto everything.

[@deejaybeephoto]

Excellent video and just the right amount of detail. As a relatively new Lr user (from Capture One 😢), I really appreciate your efforts here! Thank you!

[@SignatureEdits]

Amazing! Did it check all the boxes, or is there a pt2 needed?

[@paulm8157]

Terrific post, Ryan. Super useful content, sprinkled with tips, presented with high energy -- one take (?) maybe two. Clever "cyclops effect" bit.😊 Pic in pic camera follows you as you move about the frame, a nice touch. Color grading was most helpful of the set, IMO. Suggestion: For long vids like this one, add topic time-stamps in description; helps viewers target specifics and get to different subjects easily when viewing the vid again. Loupe = "jeweler's loupe" = magnifying glass used to view film frames against a light box. Analogue throw-back. Question: Ever post a segment showing how to move LR (cat, photos and all) to a new computer, without using cloud storage? Cheers!

[@SignatureEdits]

Ahhhh a jeweler's loupe! Definitely clever throw-back... Although I wish they'd rename it to something that was more obvious / easy to understand ;) EASIEST way to move catalogue is just to export all files as DNG. Then the edits are baked in, and you can transfer those to a harddrive and move onto any computer without having to worry about file locations etc. Plus more storage efficient than non compressed RAW with minimal (if any) loss in quality. Go to export > export with preset > export as DNG There are other ways, but this is by far the most simple.

[@subzdraws]

Incredible tutorial video, definitely one I'll recommend first to anyone that wants to learn Lightroom Classic. Thanks a lot for the time and effort put into this, greatly appreciated!

[@divshah123]

Thank You so much for explaining everything with so much patience and in detail. One of the best tutorial i have come across on this topic. Made learning so much easy with ur style of teaching.

[@Misterbiszkopt]

Hey Ryan! I think Your video will work great for the person just starting out editing in LrC. Unfortunatly I found out that after editing with this software for 3 years I have found my own so called "perfect" workflow so this video was only a veeeery long reminder on things that I already knew before... However I must say that still learned few new thinks and change my perspective on things I already knew about. I also must say that I MADLY appriciate Your attitude towards your viewers (you aren't making fool of them), your positive and full of passion energy towards the subject (I get golden retriever vibes from You and I absolutely love that!) and lasty that you are so natural in what you are doing (no slow-motion like talking and wanting me to go to sleep like tone of voice). So in conclusion I will definitely recommend this tutorial to my friends and family that are just starting out in photography as well as some more advanced editors. I really rearly comment on YT even more so in English because it's not my native tongue, and this comment turned out waaay longer than it should be...just like your video wink wink Peace, love and shorter edit times for You Ryan! P.S. I love Your sense of humour Friend keep up the amazing work with those tutorials!

[@MobyIck]

Wow, super helpful, just going through your workflow was great. Now I need to watch a bit more about curves…. thanks so much

[@old4004]

Wonderful presentation. Your good humor made the time fly by.

[@davidrhodes207]

Thank you for all the valuable information! Just started learning this week and your post has been so helpful for a beginner.

[@blackmamba7786]

Great Videos... I have been watching your videos for quite a while now... and they have been very helpful in understanding the lightroom and bettering my edits.

[@AKucheruk]

Best short introduction of Lightroom I've ever met

[@sanket.mishra]

I was literally afraid to use the Lightroom Classic before watching this video. Much Thanks 👍🏼. Love from India🧡

[@SignatureEdits]

oh man i am so glad to hear it helped u out! cheers :)

[@pennymercer4158]

I was terrified too haha

[@johnrogers2418]

It is called the Loupe view because back when you used to print a contact sheet, you would use a loupe to view individual images on the page. Using a loupe you would determine which images were worth printing full size.

[@jonathanramsey]

I didn’t know whether I should feel old or overly esoterically educated for feeling like he should know what a loupe is.

[@CaitlinCorbettcaitlincorbett]

only 30 mins in and I have learned so much already, THANK YOU!

[@ViharDholakiya]

You made my day mannn!! Love from India♥♥

[@NeusaTagliani]

U are the best your explanation is very nice short answer sweet Thanks

[@brsaravia]

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you !!! This is what I needed !!!

[@Magda-p5m]

Great tutorial ! Easy to follow and good to learn what to ignore too!

[@simonphipps1190]

Great video, engaging and easy to follow and at a good pace 👏

[@JoshuaKute]

amazing as always... thank you so much

[@SignatureEdits]

You bet! Thanks for the comment! 😃

[@lekprath]

Very brief but informative. Great video, i must say.

[@ADailyDream]

I used Lightroom for nearly 10 years, struggling with any intuitive workflow, changing mine every 2-3 month. And getting inconsistent results and style. Thanks to your video, this is past now ! I love your workflow ; it's simple, comprehensive, fast and reproducible.

[@SignatureEdits]

wow so glad to hear that!

[@TanetCampbell]

Thank you so much!!

[@SignatureEdits]

You're welcome! Hope it was helpful :)

[@eddyhate88]

i needed this for a bit of a recap,, thank you very much

[@rayyanabuaqel]

man you are the best thanks alot

[@tahoemeg]

Super helpful video. Thanks!!

[@vanessaalarie2388]

This is amazing ❤

[@jtepsr]

Nice tutorial, 2 questions, is there a invert mask button and is layers only in PS

[@josephgreen6013]

It's called "Loop View" because we used to look at individual images on a contact sheet (all the images from a roll of film printed actual size on a single sheet) using a jeweler's loop.

[@TimGreig]

it's Loupe

[@juliobarkan9529]

Great video, Tons of information and a lot to process. Thanks for sharing. But do you know how to set up Light Room Classic on a dual screen system?

[@SignatureEdits]

Hey Julio! You can set up one of your monitors as a preview monitor w/ full screen image, and the other as the standard develop view. Just google "setup lightroom preview monitor" and it should show you an easy step by step guide!

[@juliobarkan9529]

Thanks for getting back to me. I will check that out.@@SignatureEdits

[@kandariankapiszon]

I found out that Cinematic Filters aded by Adobe Lightroom, really fits my photos and pop them so good 😃 Thank you for this video, i saved it "just in case", greetings ✌

[@SignatureEdits]

Great to hear! Could be the filters are better now ✌ Thanks for the save!

[@cwburns32]

Worth noting that the auto advance (caps lock) is an incredible little setting when culling a shoot. Hit caps lock, every time you flag a photo as a pick, it advances to the next...I am sure you know this, or possibly cover it later on as I am only 7 mins in but worth mentioning if you didn't!

[@peter_de_la_cruz]

Just guessing but I think the Loupe View hotkey is E for ENLARGE? 4:09

[@poerava]

This is amazing

[@MoniquevanRooyen-ht3tl]

What color space do you use to export a photo

[@likedontcostmoney5595]

great video !

[@jeffersonsombillo2793]

I put your vid .75 slower and turn out to be the best Lr tutorial thanks man

[@Antituarec]

Hey Ryan,according to your video description you are using the sony a7 iv. Were the pictures really made with an A7IV?

[@gabrieleriva2199]

Great video! Thanks so much!! I don’t know why, but my amount slider for the presets, doesn’t work.. any suggestions?

[@ViharDholakiya]

it requires courage to make 2 hrs of video in the era of hooking people in 2 seconds👏

[@Nemo-pj7vx]

Great video

[@torgny4950]

The only thing this person succeeds in is driving me crazy with his buzz!

[@highanddryful]

A really easy tutorial to learn from but excuse my ignorance, can i apply what I learn here to Adobe light-room? I don't have Lr Classic...

[@cunbin_videos]

I'm missing the point of Catalog.. I use Folders and directly have the folders on my computer connected to lighroom.. why do we need to create Catalog again? THANKS

[@BEEFBRSKT]

ilike to hit the Y key it shows a side by side before and after

[@kerrythompson9506]

FWIW I've barely started watching and already I see you've missed the CopyAsDNG-Copy-Move-Add menu at the top when importing. You can use Copy to import files directly from your SD card, it will copy the files you import to the destination you choose in the top right pane. Or use Move, which will also delete them from the SD card (not as safe as Copy).

[@Oxtailgraavy2023]

Funniest part " eh eh how do we paint the walls now that we've filled the holes ?"lol u knew what u we're doing 😅😅

[@graham_T]

Is the link to your presets missing ?

Great Video. Just the screen on LRC was blurred.

[@simoharjane7823]

the best

[@covertperspective]

I would loveeee for you to put timestamps on here! Awesome video but I like to come back to specific things

[@eddyhate88]

the E = Enlarge for loupe

[@paulmoadibe9321]

you're talking too fast so I lowered the speed to 75%... more natural this way 😉

[@SignatureEdits]

Glad that worked for you! Appreciate the feedback :)

[@sunking9050]

Great suggestion….highly recommended

[@teewunz]

I think if he did, this video would be 3+ hours

[@williamplants67]

Funny enough, I had to speed it up to 1.25% 😂😂

[@atleastbetterthan]

oh that's what im saying!😅

[@fischermann5279]

13:08 Excuse me being finical but that should be Desert.

[@SignatureEdits]

😂 whoops! my bad :)

[@rbelatamas]

capture one is a great alternative after crappy adobe

[@SignatureEdits]

I've got some gripes with Adobe on older machines atm but so far I've stayed onboard (learning something new seems like a big chore!) that said, maybe I'll check Capture One out one day soon just to see the hype

[@DebbyL-c1h]

Very good video but I had to slow playback to .75

[@tawaem2879]

30:08 Are we still hanging out at a coffee shop?

[@wolfrehm6314]

Watermark doesn't look that professional? 🤣 ok.. I think it depends on how you use the pictures. In my case I don't think so as that is a good way to create a brand and get the name to the viewer and connect it with your own look. But the tutorial I found very interesting as I didn't used the shortcuts until now, except "r" and "x" for coping and change the orientation of a picture. I had to divide the watching into 3 times, also lowering the speed to 0,75 as I´m not a native englisch speaker. Thanks for your Video!

[@poerava]

The mic is picking up way too much brother. Saliva moving around is too much. Turning down the gain will help or moving back from the mic

[@calf1264]

See folder called “FAV DESSERT PICS” 😍🤤 Opens folder to pictures of a desert… 😕😖😭

[@ESSA20]

My man at every chance he gets trying sell his is presets sly fox put off

[@TheosAdventures2018]

It doesn't matter what I do my photos always remain looking terrible after Lightroom classic! WHY!!!!

[@TimGreig]

Lightroom is a dog's breakfast. Half the time its unclear what version you're on and then panels are different and unbelievably, so are shortcuts.

[@eddyhate88]

i just watched a video that explain calibration search youtube for it

[@rosebowe]

Can you please share the link that you found helpful? Thank you

[@eddyhate88]

@@rosebowe easy search by yourself, lightroom calibration it should gives you a couple of vids

[@shreyash9710]

Good Course for Beginners 😅 but if wanna learn wheel and more advance not recommend

[@StephanKempchen]

Good, BUT too fast to follow everything.

[@hansblomqvist5880]

Bla bla bla

talk slow bro! damn you talk too damn fast for a tutorial

Very poor , you need to slow down by 300%
