- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos OK to edit
So my only exposure to processing so far has been CS5 and I have been using there raw converter to do the majority of my adjustments and then id pull a certain percentage of photos into photoshop itself for more work or for adding watermarks or resizing for the web. I have just started using presets where i'd adjust the first photo. save a preset, then pull up my next photo. hit the preset button to do those changes and then give it a quick once over or crop and straighten to finish up. Hasn't been a big deal till lately. I did a wedding and I started realising I need to speed up this process a lot. I would use the nik software to go thru my photos and tag them with the ones i wanted to edit, then id look at the photo number and then use cs5 to open and edit. I know you can pull this up in bridge, I just havnt worked with that. for things like the drifting event I covered this past weekend it would be great if i could just go into lightroom, edit them all up in the one window and be done so to speak. Can you easily make a preset in Lightroom and automatically have that preset change every drawing? is it that simple. or it is the same as what i'm using now. I am not good on the whole automation processes at all. I'm learning photoshop as I go. Sorry if this post is confusing.
