- [Jan] If you're a Lightroom Classic user
or you're thinking of becoming one,
you probably already know that Lightroom Classic
is a great program for keeping track of your photos
and for editing photo qualities, like exposure or color.
But if you have other plans for a photo,
like removing unwanted content
or swapping out a background
or getting creative in any direction
that your imagination takes you,
well then, you need another program, too.
You need Photoshop.
So I designed this LinkedIn Learning Course for you
to help you use Lightroom Classic and Photoshop together.
So you can accomplish whatever it is
that you want to do with your photographic vision.
I'm Jan Kabili.
I'm a longtime Lightroom and Photoshop instructor
for LinkedIn Learning, and I work at Adobe.
People often ask me
when they would need to use Photoshop with Lightroom.
So in this course, I'm going to show you just that.
Together we'll walk through the most common situations
in which you're likely
to use Lightroom Classic and Photoshop together.
That includes projects like removing large objects
or people from a photo,
changing the color of something in a photo,
replacing a background,
combining photos in different ways
from the straightforward to the unexpected,
applying creative filters and effects,
retouching a portrait, restoring an old photo,
adding text or graphics or more.
In addition to knowing when to use
these two programs together,
it's a good idea to know about the most efficient commands
and workflows that you'll need to use them as a team.
So we're going to cover that, too.
So let's jump right in and get started
learning using Photoshop with Lightroom Classic.
