HOW TO EDIT YOUR PHOTOS IN 2026

Do you ever wonder what order to use all the tools in Lightroom or Camera RAW? Here is it, simple video and written guide to help you get it done.

VIDEO AND WRITTEN HERE

There are so many tools in Lightroom and Camera RAW! Which ones should you absolutely use, which can you ignore?

What order should you use them? Do you have a strategy? Or do you just haphazard start editing and see what happens, only to realize you forgot something "obvious"?

For this tutorial, I decided to show you the exact approach I make to every photo edit. Start to finish. It's basically 3 easy steps that include everything you need.

Maybe you need help with a strategy, or maybe you have a great approach already but are curious if your workflow is similar to mine.

Check out this week's tutorial and get some editing help!

See you at the CAFE!
