Has anyone ever seen this Lightroom technique before today??? Im super curious if this is a first for Youtube! 😳

[evelynkwagala]

Impressive. I like that you are giving us examples with both light and dark complexions.

[freekvanbuul]

Valuable video, thanx! For me the biggest pro is that you gave the example on both a dark and a light skin. As I have most troubles with improving pics with lighter skins.

[TinaAlexinaPhotography]

Outstanding results! Can’t wait to give this a go!

[gentlegnt]

[jasonthompson]

Thank you so much Will, very useful tutorial. In this video I learned something I had no idea in LR Classic !

[andisotolongo]

THANK YOU for making this video! Adobe CC has come a long way since their downloadable days!

You are great at explaining and teaching and I’m grateful I found your page! Cheers and blessings fellow artist!

Question… I’m unable to access my input/output in any of my curves… any idea how i can find them? I’ve looked everywhere. I have the most current version and maybe I’m just not seeing it? Help!

[selenabostick]

Thank you for including an example with a POC.

[namritabakshi]

First time on your channel ans i absolutely loved it! Not seen this before.. thanks so much for putting this out..

[smepable]

Amazing thats what I needed for saving the portraits of my client 😃

[BANNERWORX]

Very interesting feature for LR, thank you for showing it to us. I wonder if the same technique can be used to balance skin tones when LED lights are used and slightly blow out skin tones, in night club images? I've done a few DJ pictures, which have been ruined by club lights. I'll feedback after this weekend as I'm shooting at my festival.

First I've seen of this technique, really good. I think it might be good to use on product photogaphy. This is also only the second video of yours I watch, I have subscribed now. Thanks for the info.

[TheNaturaltay]

Thanks! 1st time watching one of your videos!

[neilfauerbach]

Good video. What would be super-helpful for your videos, and for all the tutorials out there would be to state what version software you are on. You state in the video that "the new update...". I am watching this a year after you filmed and my LR dashboard looks nothing like yours. A suggestion. Thanks.

[Christos-Zamanis]

Great Video, really helpful and useful 👍👍👍

[kaderb]

First time and it's seem pretty good !
