There's something truly magical about capturing a spectacular Golden Hour photo but capturing this epic moment in time can be more difficult than it sounds. Getting the light exactly right is one of the biggest challenges we face when shooting a sunrise and it's easy to fall short for a number of reasons.

Today's post-processing tutorial is devoted to a "critical" task that one pro says can make or break your entire workflow and really slow you down; namely, the method you use to import images into Lightroom.

Do the outdoor photos you capture often appear dull and uninspiring, failing to convey what you saw through the viewfinder? Fear not, because this Lightroom tutorial from the PHLOG Photography YouTube channel explains how to bring them back to life with Lightroom's oft-ignored Color Range Masks.

Beginning Lightroom and Photoshop users tend to become so enamored with all the transformative tools that they often go overboard with post-processing effects, which is a sure way to ruin an otherwise nice shot. As you'll see in this tutorial from instructor Johny Spencer, there are six warning signs that your edits are overcooked.
