Background: I’ve been a photographer taking photos for over 10 years now. I like editing my photos to bring them more in line with the feeling of the shot, rather than keeping it closer to the journalistic style.
I have purchased presets that I never like the look of, learned what all the settings in Lightroom do (or so I thought), but somehow can’t make them do what I want them to do.
For example, I was trying to emulate the editing style of Amy Shore (car photographer), as I really like her almost ephemeral/pastel-y shadows, and bring it closer to my preferences. Went into Lightroom, edited the settings I thought most responsible for the look and ended up with… garbage.
In a typical Dunning–Kruger turn of events, I am starting to think I may need to brush up on my editing skills/knowledge. Where do I start? Who is a good youtuber?
Thanks c:
I do sometimes, not always, but yes they come in handy on very flat light days.
