Lightroom Workflow<\/h3>\n

Workflow & Import\u00a0<\/a><\/h5>\n

Create a workflow process in Lightroom that allows you to quickly organize, process and export images so that you can get your work out into the world quickly and efficiently.<\/p>\n

First organize your files in parallel to your computer. Below is a sample from my Pictures folder that mimics my structure in Lightroom:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Try Importing Images with the Import button in Lightroom. \u00a0Later you can create an Import “preset”<\/a> for importing images.<\/li>\n
  2. In Library Mode, Sort<\/a> your photos using P (pick) U (unpick), or X (reject) to focus on the ones you will be using.<\/li>\n
  3. You can also color labels (6-9) and star ratings\u00a0(1-5) to sort your favorites, or special\u00a0\u00a0edits.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    Processing<\/a><\/h5>\n

    For now, there is no need to do any processing in Lightroom besides learning the basics. For example, In Develop Mode, you may want to see how the basic settings change when you select AWB “auto” \u00a0White Balance. And also if you select “Auto” in Tone Control. \u00a0This is a basic Lightroom Automatic exposure and processing settings to give you a good histogram. \u00a0 Try each of these then do a Command-Z to undo.<\/p>\n

    Collections<\/a><\/h5>\n

    You may also want to create Regular and Smart collections<\/a> so you can view your sets of images easily. I like to create smart collections that have 4+ stars, and also 5 stars, as well as ones that have particular labels like “all red label” photos–which may be my color code for great landscapes.<\/p>\n
