About this video
The software I'd recommend for those new to photo editing is https://bit.ly/Luminar-NEO. It's easy to use, fun, and allows more creative and complex edits as your skillset grows (Help yourself to code ATNEO10 for a discount too!). You can pick up my full editing course here: https://bit.ly/NeoMastery
If youโre new to photo editing and you donโt know where to start this video is here to help you get the most out of your photos and improve your editing game. Iโm sharing 9 fundamental steps in getting your photos looking great. Whatever you like to photograph these photo editing tips should help and the workflow can be applied to all genres.
I aim to give beginner photographers a guide to help them get started with a solid editing workflow thatโs easy to implement and will get your photos looking great in no time.
The software Iโll be using is what I consider to be the best option for beginner photographers, but equally, youโd be able to follow the techniques using Lightroom or most other photo editors.
An overview of the steps are:
1: Correct the exposure โ make sure the photoโs brightness is as it should be.
2: Shadows and Highlights โ control the dynamic range by adjusting the shadows and highlights.
3: Contrast โ add or decrease contrast depending on the look youโre going for.
4: Colour Balance โ Make sure the colours are accurate โ or deliberately get creative.
5: Colour Saturation โ increase the vibrancy of the colours or mute them for a subtler palette.
6: Crop โ Consider cropping for a better composition, and straighten your horizon line.
7: Fine details โ Sharpen your photos and reduce unwanted noise.
8: Add your style โ Try different LUTs for an easy way to add a look / style to your photo.
9: Export / Save โ Export your edited photo ready to share with the world.
