Dedicated in memory of Bruce Fraser

IntroductionWork on the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom program began toward the endof 2003 when a small group of Adobe people, headed by Mark Hamburg, metup at photographer Jeff Schewe’s studio in Chicago to discuss a new approachto raw image editing and image management. What would it take to meet thespecific needs of those photographers who were now starting to shoot digitally?More specifically, what would be the best way to help photographers managetheir ever-growing libraries of images? It was shortly after this that I was invitedto join an early group of alpha testers and help work out what sort of programLightroom (or Shadowland, as it was known then) should become. As we beganto discuss our different digital photography workflows, it became increasinglyobvious why we all needed a better way to manage and process our digitalphotos. Lightroom underwent some pretty major changes in those early stagesas the team tried out different workflow ideas, until eventually we ended up withthe Lightroom program you see now.The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom CC / Lightroom 6 Book represents the culmination of more than nine years’ work in which I have been involved with Lightroom.Basically, this book is intended to be the ultimate reference guide to Lightroom anddesigned to help you get the maximum benefit out of the program. In writing thisbook, I have had in mind both amateur and professional photographers and haveaimed to provide what I believe is the most detailed book there is on this subject.I also wanted to make sure space was given to explaining the background to someof the features. The feedback I have had for previous editions of this book hasbeen encouraging. Newbies to Lightroom have found it easy to access and understand all the basics, while advanced professional users appreciate the backgrounddetail that’s provided. I have to confess, when I first started work on this project, Inever imagined the book would end up being 744 pages in length. Mark Hamburgonce joked that he must have failed in his mission to make Lightroom “unreasonably simple” if you needed a book as thick as mine in order to understand it!So many changes have taken place since version 1.0 was released. As a result,not only has the book ended up being a lot bigger, but I have also had torewrite almost everything that was in the original edition. As always, I suggestyou approach the book by reading it in chapter order, starting with Chapter 1:Introducing Adobe Photoshop Lightroom, which explains some of the fundamental principles behind Lightroom.The Lightroom catalog is a major feature of the program, which is why I havedevoted more than 200 pages of the book to providing in-depth advice on how towork with the Library module, including how to import photos and manage yourphotos through the use of keywords and metadata. Even more space is devotedto image processing and how to make use of all the Develop module controls.Here you will find some great picture examples, which show how Lightroom canhelp you unleash your creativity.ivINTRODUC TION

This edition of the book has a companion website: thelightroombook.com. Itcontains additional resource material in the form of Lightroom movie tutorials,templates, and PDF downloads. I know a lot of readers would like to have accessto the images that appear in the book. In response to this, I have created adownloadable Lightroom catalog that contains nearly all the photos that appearhere. Full instructions on how to install the catalog once you have downloaded itare contained on the website.Downloadable Content:thelightroombook.comOverall, I am still as excited about Lightroom as I was at the beginning of theprogram’s development, and I hope the book provides the inspiration and insightsto help you get the most out of the program, too.Martin Evening, March 2015Lightroom book updatesAdobe has been known to release interim updates for the Lightroom programin which new features are added. I am proud to say that I have had a good trackrecord in always providing readers with updated content in the form of PDFs ormovies whenever this happens. So when this happens, do remember to check thebook website for new content. I also have a Facebook page where readers can bekept updated: AcknowledgmentsI would like to thank Pamela Pfiffner, for prompting me to get started on thisproject and for her advice and help during the planning stage of this book series.For this particular edition, Valerie Witte was my editor and has done an excellentjob making sure everything has come together smoothly. Other members ofthe publishing team included the production editor, Tracey Croom; copy editor,Elizabeth Kuball; proofreader, Patricia J. Pane; indexer, James Minkin; and additional compositing and corrections by David Van Ness. I would also like to thankCharlene Charles-Will for the cover design, as well as Sara Jane Todd, who workedon the marketing.Lightroom is really the brainchild of Mark Hamburg, without whom none ofthis would have happened. Since then I have been helped a lot by the variousLightroom engineers and other members of the team. It is all thanks to themthat I have managed to gather the background technical knowledge required towrite this book. In particular, I would like to thank Thomas Knoll, Eric Chan, MaxWendt, and Josh Bury (who worked on the Camera Raw engineering). I wouldalso like to thank product manager Tom Hogarty, product evangelist JulieanneKost, and previous product evangelist George Jardine for the support and helpthey have given me. I would especially like to thank Ian Lyons, who tech-editedthe book. Thank you, Ian, for clarifying all the many technical points and providingTHE ADOBE PHOTOSHOP LIGHTROOM CC / LIGHTROOM 6 BOOKv

additional insights. Thanks, too, go to Sean McCormack, who provided me withvaluable feedback and assistance.A number of photographic shoots have been carried out specifically for this book.I would like to thank the models, Lucy Edwards and Veronica at M&P and Kellyfrom Zone; Camilla Pascucci for makeup; Terry Calvert, James Pearce, and NadiaFoster for hair; Harriet Cotterill for the clothes styling; Stuart Weston and NeilSoni for the use of their studios; and Harry Dutton and Rob Cadman for assistingme. Also a big thank-you to Jeff Schewe and George Jardine for documenting theshoots with stills and video.It has been an interesting experience to see a new program emerge from scratchand has been a pleasure to share the development process in the company of agreat group of alpha testers and fellow authors, who were all willing to share theirknowledge about the program with one another. You will notice that this bookis dedicated to the memory of Bruce Fraser, who sadly passed away in December2006. Bruce was one of the original core group of Lightroom alpha testers whohelped shaped the program. The Lightroom capture and output sharpeningare both based on Bruce’s original work on Photoshop sharpening techniques.Bruce was a true genius and is deeply missed by all those who knew and workedwith him.A book like this would be rather boring to read through without having somedecent photographs to illustrate it with. To supplement my own photography, Iwould, therefore, like to thank Peter Andreas, Sean McCormack, Eric Richmond,and Jeff Schewe, all of whom are individually credited throughout this book. Andlastly, I would like to thank my wife, Camilla, and daughter, Angelica, for yet againbeing so understanding and patient while I was glued to the computer!viINTRODUC TION
