Camera Club Workshops: Adobe Lightroom

This photo is by Adriana Greisman. It’s a great example of using post-processing software to enhance a good photograph and make it a great photograph.

The club will not hold normal monthly meetings during June and July but, instead, will offer a two-part class (via Zoom) covering Adobe’s Lightroom post-processing software. Lightroom (LR) is an Adobe application that allows you to organize, store, edit, rate, and share your photos. Unlike Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom is nondestructive, i.e., your original photo is always available as are all of your edited versions. While most post processing software (such as Photoshop) allows you to edit your original photos, LR organizes and stores your photos thus making it easy to retrieve your photos without hours of searching.

The class will be offered as two workshops, June 22 and July 20, 1 to 3 p.m, with each offering different information. The June session will deal with organizing photos, including importing, keywording, and presets, and the July session will cover editing, exporting, and backing up your photos. You are welcome to register for either or both, but each session will be unique. The second session will NOT repeat the information from the first session. You must have Adobe Lightroom Classic installed on your computer prior to the first session.

Both sessions will be conducted by club president and award-winning photographer, Adriana Greisman. Camera Club membership is required in order to attend.
