Book description
Adobe Photoshop Lightroom was designed from the ground up with
digital photographers in mind, offering powerful editing features
in a streamlined interface that lets photographers import, sort,
and organize images. This completely updated bestseller, The
Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 Book, was also written with
photographers in mind. Author Martin Evening describes features in
Lightroom 3 in detail from a photographer’s perspective. As
an established commercial and fashion photographer, Martin knows
firsthand what photographers need for an efficient workflow. He has
also been working with Lightroom from the beginning, monitoring the
product’s development and providing valued feedback to Adobe.
As a result, Martin knows the software inside and out, from image
selection to image editing to image management. In this book
you’ll learn how to:
• Work efficiently with images shot in the raw or JPEG
format
• Import photographs with ease and sort them according to
your workflow
• Create and manage a personal image library
• Apply tonal adjustments to multiple images quickly
• Integrate Lightroom with Adobe Photoshop
• Export images for print or Web as digital contact sheets or
personal portfolios
• Make the most of new features in Lightroom 3, such as
automatic lens correction and improved noise reduction
Photographers will find Lightroom 3—and The Adobe
Photoshop Lightroom 3 Book—indispensable tools in their
digital darkrooms.
“With Martin’s expert guidance, you’ll soon find
that you have precisely the tools you need to turn your
concentration back where it belongs—on making better
pictures!”
—George Jardine, Lightroom instructor
“As a photographer himself, Martin Evening knows what tools
photographers need to realize their creative vision. In this book,
he shows not only how Adobe Photoshop Lightroom works but also why
it will become an essential part of any photographer’s
workflow.”
—Greg Gorman, photographer
