Learn Scott Kelby’s system for developing photos to perfection in Adobe Lightroom!

Scott Kelby, the #1 bestselling author of dozens of books on photography and post-processing techniques, unveils an exciting new way of thinking and working in Adobe Lightroom that will change the way you develop your photos forever. Spend less time wondering what to do (and when to do it) in Lightroom, and spend more time knowing exactly how to bring out the very best in your photos.

In this book, Scott focuses exclusively on developing your images, and he narrows down the process to exactly which of the Develop module’s tools and techniques you absolutely, positively have to know. He’s found that there are just seven major tools - seven features that you have to master to be able to enhance your images like a pro. Perhaps most importantly, he has determined exactly when and in which order to apply these seven techniques that make up his amazing Seven-Point System for Lightroom.

But the magic of this book is not just listing the seven tools and showing you how they work. It’s how they’re used together, and how Scott teaches them (and makes it stick) that makes this book so unique. You’re not going to just learn one technique for fixing shadows, another technique for adjusting colour, and on and on (every Lightroom book pretty much does that, right?). Instead, you’re going start off at square one, from scratch, and go through the system together. Each chapter is just one photo-one project, which you can follow along using the same images - and you’re going to unleash these seven tools in a very specific way, and you’re going to do it again, and again, and again, on different photos, in different situations, until the entire process is second nature to you. And because this book focuses on the Develop module, it works exactly the same in the mobile version of Lightroom, too!

Once you learn these seven techniques and the order in which to do them, there won’t be an image that appears on your screen that you won’t be able to enhance, fix, edit, and finish yourself! The best part is that Scott’s techniques work across a wide range of photos, from landscapes to portraits to architecture to nature to event photography and everything in between. There isn’t a photo you won’t be able to conquer!
