Lightroom Classic: Foundations – Class Description

Young man on laptop.

Mastering the post-processing stage can greatly enhance your photography and bring your images to a new level. Adobe Lightroom is widely regarded as the industry-standard software for photographers, offering a comprehensive set of tools for organizing, editing, and sharing digital photos.

The Library module in Adobe Lightroom serves as the foundation for your workflow. It provides essential features for importing, organizing, tagging, rating, and managing your photos. While it may initially appear to be primarily for viewing images, the Library module offers a range of options to streamline your workflow and make your photo management more efficient.

Throughout this class, you’ll receive a full overview of the library module and along with exercises and practical assignments to reinforce your learning. It’s a great opportunity to ask questions, exchange ideas with fellow learners, and receive guidance from an experienced instructor who can provide insights and best practices for using Lightroom effectively.

This is part one in a two part series for learning the ins and outs of Lightroom. Part two is Lightroom Develop.

What you will learn:

  • How to organize your photos to work within the Lightroom catalog
  • How to import photos into Lightroom (we’ll look at several choices)
  • How to organize photos once they’re in Lightroom:
    • Ways to decide which photos to keep and which to delete
    • Create and use Keywords and Filters to easily find any photo in seconds
    • Create and use Collections and Smart Collections.
    • Rate with stars, numbers, or colors
  • How to export photos to share with others or to print
  • Look at Preference options and Catalog Settings configure Lightroom to your specific needs

We’ll concentrate on the many uses of the Library module, but venture into the other modules for a short overview of each. You’ll also receive an in-depth pdf handout for future reference.

By utilizing the Library module in Adobe Lightroom effectively, you can streamline your workflow, organize your photos efficiently, and optimize your post-processing experience. This sets a strong foundation for the subsequent editing stages, ensuring that you can focus on enhancing your images creatively while maintaining control over your photo library.

Please note: This class is based around the Lightroom Classic version of the software.
