Adobe Lightroom

Photography – Organization and Editing Tool

The only tool I use that has both an iPad and macOS verion of the app. This is extremely useful for quick, remote, editing or viewing of your image library.

As Lightroom is evolving I find myself using Adobe Photoshop less and less.

Critical Plugins: On1 Photo RAW, Portrait AI, Resize AI, NoNoise AI, Effects, and HDR. Excellent plugins or stand alone products for really exapnding your creativity.

Videography – Organization and Editing tool

Due to its Cross Platform support, Lightroom is an essential “quick edit” tool for my videography.  Much more feature rich than the iOS/iPadOS Photo’s App and iMovie – so it is a good NLE-lite when on the run.

It won’t replace FinalCut Pro X in my tool kits, but it is a useful tool for my remote workflow.  Adobe Premier users may find it even more useful as it is better integrated with it’s older sibling.
