No matter where you choose to do your edits, however, one important thing to remember is to use a light touch on photos. While you will definitely want to hop over to Photoshop for more intense edits, if you are batch-editing a lot of portraits or just doing a quick touch-up, it can be more efficient to simply polish the image in Lightroom without doing a round-trip. This awesome video tutorial will give you five helpful tips for editing portraits in Lightroom to get the best results.Ĭoming to you from Anthony Morganti, this excellent video tutorial will show you five tips for editing portraits in Lightroom. Next week we’ll look at how you can further customize what is displayed within the Metadata panel.When it comes to editing portraits, you probably think of working in Photoshop over Lightroom, but you can often complete a retouch in Lightroom, particularly if you are working on something like a large batch of headshots that only need light retouching. Some are editable within Lightroom Classic, like titles, copyright info, and capture date, but many technical data fields, like ISO, shutter speed, and aperture are not editable at all. The various views within the Metadata panel provide access to different combinations of these types of data fields.
Then there is the descriptive type of metadata that the creator can add to the photo both in camera and in software, called IPTC (International Press Telecommunications Council), such as caption, title, and copyright. There is the technical metadata created by the camera at the time of capture called EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format), such as exposure information and capture date/time. There are two broad types of metadata you can display, and in some cases edit, in Lightroom Classic. I’ll point out the Three Dimensional Projection view is for displaying or editing this specific metadata field, which can be used with 360° panoramas so that they are displayed correctly in apps, like Facebook, that can read that field and allow you to pan around within the photo (note, there may be other file requirements for correct 360° pano display). I recommend clicking through each view to see what fields are displayed.
