Editing an outdoor portrait in Lightroom

Mar 26 • Editing

Hi! In this video, I’m showing my simple workflow for editing an image in Lightroom.

The biggest reason I love Lightroom is consistency. Once I edit one image, I can copy/paste my settings (or sync them) across the rest of the gallery, then it’s just a quick check to make sure everything looks good from photo to photo.

In this edit, I walk through my basics: exposure correction, a small boost to vibrance/saturation, spot healing, and light skin smoothing. Clean, natural, and fast.

When you edit a session, what do you focus on most?

Exposure + white balance

Consistent colour across the gallery

Skin tones

Skin smoothing

Cropping + straightening

Spot healing / cleanup
