If I buy the Signature Edits Ultimate Preset Collection Bundle, will I also get this version of V2 presets or would it be separate as well as the updates that come out of each one?
Hey Jeff! The 2nd pass is just me finessing things, going through and correcting things I may have missed first time around or stand out. For example, warming up the white balance in a photo by a nudge, adjusting the exposure down by .1 or .2, or if something catches my eye that I missed the first time around (or that I overedited and on 2nd glance is too obvious) I wasn't planning on showing this portion as it's not super interesting to watch (and the techniques are the same as what you just saw here!) But let me know if it would be valuable for you and I can see what I can do!
You bet! Nope not for me. Just more of the same, with a slightly more careful eye for details rather than broad brush strokes! Let me know if you have requests for other tutorials!
@@SignatureEdits I have a hard time getting my greens and yellows looking right on my landscape photos when it's bright out. They come out looking too electric
One thing I find about using LR CC is that your home tab becomes a mess when you import everything into it. Also ive yet to find something that is as seamless to cull with as LR Classic. What's your workflow when it comes to this?
THAT is a great point! I haven't personally delved too deeply into this. For now I just put each session into an album on import. Then after culling I personally remove all the rejects from my library (and only keep them on a backup harddrive) But another way I can see doing it if you want to keep the rejects would be simply to put everything in an album with the session title, then you rate all the rejects as a zero and keepers as a 1. It's then pretty easy to sort through which is which. Some people will go a little further and once keepers are edited set them as a 4, then when they are FINALIZED set them to a 5, or just set your absolute favs as a 5 etc. Lots of different approaches... for me though, the simpler the better
Adobe bridge has been my go to program for importing everything on my camera onto my computer / external hard drive. You can have everything automatically placed into organized folders by shooting dates. The way that bridge builds it's thumbnails is also significantly faster than LR Classic and you can custom build some workflow tools for further file management and exports. From here you can quickly rate your photos, cull what you know you dislike, and then open LR classic to sync your library and you're good to go. Hope this helps.
Newbies keep in mind this is all just basic editing. There is a difference between shooting high end and actually delivering high end. Take this as a good first step toward becoming the best you can be and not misleading clients and yourself.
Great perspective! Although for any newbies out there, I can say that this is the exact workflow I use with weddings, full time, at $4k per wedding. So while there may be situations where you're going into photoshop to adjust a few things or doing specialty edits, 99% of the time, this is all that I personally need for my shooting and editing style :) Each photographer is different however! It all comes down to serving the client and meeting their expectations.
For that shortcut creat a brush mask af the entire screen with that adjust
I can try next time!
Great to watch thank you
Thanks so much!

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the comment!

Great question! The Ultimate Collection INCLUDES V1 & V2. Updates to V2 would be included as well. Hope this helps!
What do u use to record the screen and yourself at the same time?
Hey Johnny! I use a program called Screenflow for mac. But you could easily use quicktime as a free option, or OBS, or Camtasia for PC. Good luck!
Are you going to do the next video on you 2nd pass when you do the remaining 10% edits?

@SignatureEdits thanks. Thought there might be more to it on the 2nd pass. Different things and techniques.

@@SignatureEdits what do you use to select your keepers? Something like aftershoot?

Sounds awesome! I'll give it a try @@Waterfiendz
