Lightroom by Lynne Rigby Orlando Lightroom 101 Instructor {Soft and Dreamy} using split toning and the tone curve lightroom kind of girl. I don’t have time or the patience to take every photo into photoshop. Admittedly, I learned to do a lot in lightroom because photo- I am a shop shuts my wireless keyboard down and then I’d have to turn my computer off for it to function again. It’s been like that for a year, and I did finally buy a regular keyboard, but I digress. Lightroom is underrated by so many photographers. I read about so many people just using it for white balance and importing, but there’s so much more! I’m also a girly girl. I love haze actions and the soft, low contrast look that they give my images. I don’t love taking every image into photoshop to run and tweak an action, so after a lot of playing, I’ve learned how to give my photos that look in lightroom. Here is my beginning edit: I import using the default lightroom settings. It gives me a good starting point. It was underexposed SOOC, so I added exposure until my histogram spanned the graph without blowouts. Proper brightness and exposure is key to achieving a good soft edit; otherwise you’re going to have a muddy mess. 60
Next, I head on down to the tone curve. I clicked the little square to take me to a point curve. I pulled the top right point down which essentially adds recovery to highlights and I lifted the curve until I had this look. The contrast and softness looked how I wanted it, but it’s now too bright, so I went back to exposure and took it down a few notches. Onto the split toning panel. Since this image is very girly - ruffles, bows, polkadots and sparkly shoes, I pick some girly colors, but this is where you can experiment. Here, I’ve decided I’d like to add a warm yellow to the highlights at a low saturation and pink in the shadows. I moved the balance slider toward the right so that the effect was greater within the highlights than the shadows. And the before and after. Here is a video of the tutorial. All CM members can download this preset for free in the lightroom tutorial section of the forum. 61
