Hey gang, I’m back from Photoshop World. Last week is a blur, I connected with a lot of online folks in person for the first time, and enjoyed networking at the conference. Today, I’ve got a Lightroom video for you that addresses the question, “How do I save changes to my files in Lightroom?” Next week, I’ll talk about the difference between writing XMP changes and exporting files.

Good morning dear viewers. Before I get to today’s show, I want to thank you for your patience as we work on the website. While many of the changes are happening behind the scenes, the stability of the site kept me from posting the last 12 episodes here. Over the next couple of weeks I’ll be posting old episodes to catch the website up with the YouTube channel.

I’m on a plane this morning on my way to Photoshop World. I’m looking forward to connecting with a bunch of people I haven’t met, and reconnecting with folks I haven’t seen in a while. If you’re in Vegas be sure to say “Hi!” For today’s show I’ve got a quick tips in Lightroom. How to create quick collections and a keyboard tip for the Develop module. Enjoy!

Good morning my dear readers.

Hope you’re weekend was relaxing, fun or whatever you needed it to be. Yesterday, I had the privilege of presenting “Social Media for Photographers” at the Photo Pro Summer School in Lexington, KY.

I just finished delivering a Lightroom presentation for Day Two of the conference, and I am now posting today’s video while Kevin Ames delivers his presentation on Adobe Camera RAW.

Today’s quick tip is using Before & After previews in Lightroom. Hope you enjoy it, and I’ll see you Wednesday.
