With Lightroom Classic 9.0, we can now, for any number of images selected, export multiple file types at once - for example, a full-size JPEG for printing and a small JPEG for online sharing. Unfortunately the addition of this new functionality to the Export dialog also makes simple exports more confusing. In the video tutorial below [...]
Enhanced Details was made available today in the February releases of Lightroom Classic CC (v. 8.2) and Lightroom CC Desktop (v. 2.2). This new process can potentially improve the quality of very fine detail and reduce artifacts and moire in raw files. It re-renders your raw file using a more sophisticated demosaicing algorithm that is [...]
Now in Lightroom Web you can format the display of Lightroom Classic collections and Lightroom CC albums that you plan to share with friends or clients.

If you've made a photo book with Lightroom's Book module, you know that it can take a long time to get it just right. When you're ready to make your second book, rather than start from scratch, reuse your first design, modifying it as you see fit. In the video tutorial below, from my Lightroom: [...]
Files that you export from Lightroom to share with people contain a lot of information, called metadata, that can be read by others using various applications.

This is my first article in what will be a several part series on Lightroom's Export function. This article will focus on what exporting is for and when you should export. Future ones will go into the settings. Background: Lightroom's Non-Destructive Approach to Image Editing Lightroom works non-destructively, meaning that it never touches your original raw [...]
As I monitor forums, I see so much confusion about resolution and how to set it in Lightroom, that I thought it was time for a post on it.Our photos are made up of pixels - squares of solid color that our camera sensor captures. For example, a photo from a 24 megapixel (MP) camera [...]

In the video below, I show you how to create these cool picture-in-picture page layouts in Lightroom's Book module. If you're not interested in making a photo book, remember, you can export your Book pages as individual JPEGS to share electronically or to re-import and print. Thank you to my workshop [...]
Here's an idea for a cool Book photo layout in Lightroom -- choose a multi-photo page layout, and use different parts of the same photo in each cell! Select your page by clicking on it, click on the downward triangle and choose a multi-photo layout: Drag your single photo from the Filmstrip up into each of [...]
I recently got a chance to try out X-Rite's Colormunki Photo device. This allows you to not only profile your monitor (and projector), but also to create printer / paper profiles.
