Adobe Photoshop Lightroom CC - Edit Like a Pro: (2018 Release)

I've never used photo editing software before, but found that this book was easy to follow and clearly explained terminology, editing concepts and program features.

This is an excellent book which explains how to use the many functions of Lightroom CC. It covers all of these functions as they are used on both a PC as well as on the mobile device App. The book goes into detailed explanations of such topics as work flow, image editing, creating presets, and much more. Lightroom CC is a powerful and sophisticated digital image editing tool and this book provides the user with hands-on explanations about how to maximize the power of this software. This is not a book for beginners, but is a great resource for those who have a basic knowledge of Lightroom and/or Photoshop.

Don't be confused. This may the only manual for the new Lightroom for the cloud. Also it's excellent

Seems to be a great starter for the novice

There are a huge number of updates in the new version. Maybe I just can't find it but I thought Amazon had a way of notifying us when a book became available. I've been notified of updates by other authors such as George Simenon and Martha Grimes.

I’ve been a photographer for very many years and studied at Uni when we actually went into the darkroom and got our hands dirty. Moving to digital photography I eventually learned to use post shooting software and flipped back and forth between Lightroom and Apple’s Aperture. I settled on Lightroom but still struggled with many concepts and it was only when I stumbled across Victoria’s book on Lightroom (The original ‘Classic’ version) that everything became clear and I started to enjoy what I was doing began to learn again.With the advent of CC and the mobile version, I bought Vicoria’s Latest book and again this brought everything into focus (pun fully intended!). She explains the how, and more importantly, the why of all the controls, how the whole cloud infrastructure works and the benefits and downsides of the various versions.That the book is available as both a hard copy (which lives next to my desktop computer for constant reference) and as a regularly updated download, it really is indispensable.There are other, very good, tutors, but Victoria’s style makes everything simple and understandable.I really recommend the book. It’s made my photography and the post shoot developing enjoyable again.

This is the first book I have found that adequately explains the non “classic” version of Lightroom CC. So many books out there might gloss over this version and then move to the classic version. I am just getting back into photograph as a hobby, and have very outdated knowledge of photoshop (back when I started we did everything in the actual darkroom). So knowing only enough to be dangerous, all other guides were confusing. I have the classic version installed on a desktop computer at home, but due to a lot of travel a good majority of my editing is in the cc version on my laptop. And between the 2 versions and my limited knowledge, I was just floundering. Victoria has very nicely laid things out in a very easy to follow manner. And on her website is more information including printable “translation” sheets for the tools in the different versions. I highly recommend this boom for anyone who really wants to know this version of the software, and not just be told why they should switch to the classic version.

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom CC - Edit Like a Pro is aimed at new users of Lightroom CC, but is also very useful to those of us who use Adobe Lightroom Classic. Starting about 1/3 of the way into the book, Victoria Bampton, the "Lightroom Queen", begins analyzing ordinary images and showing how tweaks can turn them into much stronger images. It's a great way to further your study of how to make your images better. The edits suggested in the book for sample images have shown me that more edits are possible for my own images, to make them much stronger. Mastering photography is a lifetime pursuit, at least for me, and learning new ways to look at images, see features in the images that make them weaker, and the Lightroom possibilities to strengthen my own images is the essence of good photography. We never stop learning.

This is a very good book about Lightrom CC, which is the cloud version of Lightroom. Books mostly focus on the old, and desktop versions of Lightroom (Lightroom classic), but Lightroom CC holds the highest technology, and the future. This book, is up to date, and adfitional updates are released for it.It goes through Lightroom thematically from the basics of Lightroom through photo management until photo editing. It can easily be understood by noobes.

I have enjoyed reading this book immensely. It is written in an engaging manner that is immediately compelling and instructive. The information is thorough and thoughtfully presented, with a liberal use of illuminating examples. The layout of the book is clear and easy to read. The content is well structured. There is a good selection of worked examples that augment the material in the book.If you are looking for instruction into Lightroom CC, you won't be disappointed in this book.

This book is a good companion to read when using Photoshop. It has helped me in most areas in using the software.

Although a novice I found this book easy to follow and understand, I expect it will help me a lot in learning to use Lightroom

Yes a book you use two hands to hold and need a book mark for.Very detailed with an easy on the brain read.A must have for a beginner or an eagle
