    Learned so much from this tutorial. Currently faced with editing hundreds of images over the next day or so, some shot during Golden Hour. This short clip of yours will save me hours of frustration during the editing process. Thanks for posting.

    When you use the sharpening tool, don't forget to use the mask! Hold option on a mac when you're dragging the top 3 sliders and that way you can adjust exactly what you're sharpening :)

    Not correct at 2:30!
    The difference between saturation and vibrance is not about color temperatures : the difference is that saturation works equaly on ALL the colors while Vibrance only saturates the less saturated ones.
    Example : if you have a lot of saturated reds in your image, saturation is gonna saturate everything including reds while saturation is gonna saturate every colors except reds. That's why it appears like a more subtle tool !

    • @whipshaw

    • @kefkapalazzo1
      @kefkapalazzo1 3 года назад

      that’s technically correct, but in many contexts Julia’s explanation applies. The vibrance will work on the blues more

      Julia Trotti is a common mistake to think that Portuguese is Spanish, I just wanted to clarify! For you and for anyone that is reading (wasn't hate I swear)

  • @mikeackYT
    @mikeackYT 6 лет назад +1

    Hi, Julia! For your whitebalance in a shot like this, do you tend to shoot with it on auto, or do you adjust it manually?

    • @juliatrotti
      @juliatrotti  6 лет назад +1

      Hey! I always use my white balance on manual :) I normally keep at around 5200 and change it if the shot is looking off. This makes most processing a lot easier as each shot is exactly the same and I can sync my presets to it!

    • @mikeackYT

    This is a silly question but I can't find split toning. Have I got the wrong lightroom? Love your video!

    • @juliatrotti
      @juliatrotti  6 лет назад

      The menu could be collapsed! It's just under HSL :)

  • @sonnybrown4758
    @sonnybrown4758 6 лет назад

    Do you usually go into photoshop after this? I wonder what percentage of your shots go to photoshop for more editing.

    • @juliatrotti
      @juliatrotti  6 лет назад +1

      Yep, I do colour correction in Lightroom first then retouch in Photoshop. I pretty much retouch all of my portrait work in Photoshop afterwards, though I do try to keep the retouching minimal and natural :)

    I feel like the sun is still blinding in the background. I'd like to have seen how an angled grad filter might have affected the photo.

  • @an334
    @an334 6 лет назад

    Hi 👋
    I am a beginner. I know about raw pictures but before editing what picture style you set?? Like Neutral 0, -4, -2, 0??

    • @juliatrotti
      @juliatrotti  6 лет назад

      I just use standard picture profile. If you shoot in raw, it doesn't matter too much as you can revert any picture profile you use back to 0 with an editing program like Lightroom or Camera Raw :)

    This may sound really stupid, but I can't seem to work out how to see the before shot in my lightroom. What key do you use to see the before photo? (Just started out with lightroom...)

    • @juliatrotti
      @juliatrotti  6 лет назад +1

      That's not a stupid question at all, it took me ages before I realised that shortcut was available! Just press the \ button :)

    Which lens was used to capture this beautiful shot?

    • @Vinz416
      @Vinz416 6 лет назад

      I pretty sure it's the Canon 35mm f/1.4 L @ f/2.0 ;-)

    • @ChristophrChan
      @ChristophrChan 6 лет назад

      Chez Vinz okay, thanks! I thought it was either that or the 50mm :)

    • @tomroggero
      @tomroggero 6 лет назад

      you can see at the top right corner it says ISO 800, 35mm, F/2.0, 1/2500th of a sec. just below the histogram. IMHO Sigma is better than Canon for 35mm.

    • @juliatrotti
      @juliatrotti  6 лет назад

      Thanks! And yes, I used the Canon 35mm f1.4L :)
