KelbyOne Lightroom Conference Coming in April 2024

Very excited to be part of the KelbyOne Lightroom Conference 2024 this coming April 16th and 17th …

I’ll be presenting 2 classes, both of which are connected in that the first class I show all the preparation, planning, lighting and photogtraphy for a photo shoot. So, I’ll be covering the researching the concept, visiting a clothing and props provider to the TV and Movie Industry, working with the model, stylist, the set and finally the shoot.

In the 2nd class I’ll then go through the entire retouching process from importing the cpatured images into Lightroom and then step by step working through the retouching making use of Lightroom and Photoshop, and then finally a print.

VERY excited to show this becuase it means working on something completely new; a portrait that doesn’t form part of a series but a portrait I’ve wanted to work on for a while, so to be able to show the entire process will be great!

Grab my FREE Lightroom Presets from the Lightroom Community

So recently I wrote about these 2 images that I captured over the past few weeks …

I edited both images in Lightroom so what I’ve done is make all of the editing steps donwloadable as a Preset that you can use in Lightroom and / or Camera Raw.

You can see the editing steps for both of these images in the Lightroom Community, so if you’d like them as a Preset I’ve written out the steps below …

STEP 1

Click on the link below to got to my Profile Page on lightroom.adobe.com

STEP 2

Click on each image in turn and choose Save as Preset on the far right of the screen

STEP 3

Give the Preset a name. Choose which edits you want included and then press Save

STEP 4

This Preset will now be saved in Your Presets in a Saved from Community folder in your Lightroom.

STEP 5

If you also want this Preset to appear in your Lightroom Classic / Desktop, simply Right-Click on the name of the Preset and choose Export.

You can then import the Preset File into Lightroom Classic.

PRINTING PROBLEMS? 🖨️ IT'S NOT YOU!

Here’s the recording of a LIVE Stream I did on both YouTube and Facebook recently.

If you’ve ever struggled with printing your images, in this LIVE Broadcast I show the simple settings no matter what software you use BUT how different software can produce VERY different results …

Lightroom ... IS IT WORTH IT? WHY WOULD ANYONE USE IT?

Well quite simply in this video I show WHY and HOW I DO use it in conjunction with Lightroom Classic but for one VERY specific reason …

I PRINTED a 72" iPhone Photo and you WON'T BELIEVE THE RESULT !!!

Yes you read thar right … a 72” print of an iPhone photograph!

In this video I not only show ther print but also give you a look at the kit I used along with my favourite iPhone App for creating Long Exposure Photographs.

I also show what I used to upscale the original image more than 4 times, taking up to the final 72 inches!

The future of mobile photography is VERY exciting 📱😃

I'm hosting a Printing Workshop with Carmarthen Cameras, BenQ and Permajet

On Friday 24th February 2023 I’m excited to be hosting a Printing Workshop in partnership with Carmarthen Cameras, BenQ and Permajet.

A 2 hour evening at the Carmarthen Cameras, Zion Chapel Store running from 7pm - 9pm, I’ll be taking folks through such topics as …

• Display Calibration

• Colour Space

• Printing Software Options

• Paper Profiles

• Paper / Media Options

… and of course producing some final prints.

An often over-complicated process, I’ll make it not so, and show how an understanding of each part of the process can produce not just great prints, but prints that match what you see on your display again and again.

No more wasted paper, no more wasted ink … just complete confidence that when you press print, you know you will get exactly what you would want / expect.

Tickets are priced at just £20 but spaces are limited due to space.

For more information and to grab a ticket, check out the link below.

Hope to see you there,
Glyn
