Learn Lightroom editing the right way - patkay.com/lightroom

Most photo editing tutorials teach you sliders. This is the 80% of photo editing basics that actually matters β€” learning to see what your photo needs.

In this video I take one photograph from RAW to finished and walk through the entire editing workflow conceptually: restoring the image, restoring exposure, colour and contrast, effects and detail, masking, and export. No slider-by-slider play-by-play β€” instead, the thinking behind every move, why editing is always in service to the subject, and why the fastest way to learn is replicating the work of photographers you admire.
