I didn't know you had a channel! Fastest subscription of my life.
Hey Sydney! Hope you are well. Thank you, that's the best compliment ever!
Recently moved to lightroom. This is the best thing I've viewed in ages
Thanks so much for this tutorial, I have been using Lightroom for years without knowing anything about Keywords, you have been doing my life a lot easier, liked and subscribed
So happy to hear it helped! Cheers to a happy Lightroom experience!
Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge. I have been using LR since the beginning but I have thought about using keywords like you show🙏🙏👍👍👌👌
Thanks for a topic so many avoid presenting! I love way you make it based on how the user works.
Thank you for some great tips. I’m a commercial photographer and you have given me back hours of my time.
I learned so much in three videos. Than you, and I look forward to more soon.
Love the way you teach, thank you. I've learned so much in such a short time.
You have some beautiful photos in your catalog
Thank you very much for this great tutorial.
Glad it was helpful and thanks for sharing a comment!
Another excellent video. Your videos are highly organized and the presentation is pleasing to listen to. I also immediately subscribed after watching your video on "7 Powerful Tips". Thank You
Thank you for the kind words and I'm glad you have found the videos helpful! Cheers!
OMG - where did you shoot that Galearis ?!!!!!!
What a fabulous idea, many thanks...
Glad you found it useful. More than welcome and happy organizing!
I actually use the same system as you but for some reason I'm constantly getting orphaned (outside of the hierarchy) keywords. Any idea why this happens and how to avoid it?
Thank you. Clarified a few things for me.
Glad to hear it!
Great refresher tutorial. Thanks
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for taking a moment to leave a comment.
Hi Chrissy, perfect timing with this video - my next job in Lightroom - thank you😊
More than welcome! Glad the stars aligned and happy organizing!
Very useful. Thanks for sharing.
Glad to hear it! Cheers!
Hi Chrissy hope you may be able to tell me where i am going wrong. I have multiple catalogues and within those catalogues there are members of my family when I use keyword ie family then do keylisting I go into a catalogue and it and the i transfer to the keylisting then I go to another catalogue with more family in it will only let me put them in that catalogue any help would be appreciated.
As a Lightroom newbie I have been shying away forever from importing my 30K+ photos (mostly close-up) into LR.
I keep them on an external hard drive, classified by the 4 seasons and the country, so basically your WHEN and WHERE.
This is sooo very helpful and gives me hope. For the first time, I believe I could manage this.
The only thing is I have no keywords yet, but in the end that might turn out to be an advantage?
Merci mille fois!!!
Pas de problème! Yes, you can definitely handle it - start with big bucket keywords and then just work this endeavor a little at a time. Every photo doesn't need 20 keywords, even just a few can prove powerful. And, even better, you have the advantage of starting fresh with your keywording. Maybe take a look at my previous video on "7 Powerful Tips to Organize your Lightroom Folders" (ua-cam.com/video/1fa4_e4cp8Q/v-deo.html), but it sounds like your system of organizing images into WHEN AND WHERE folders is a fantastic approach, especially if it feels intuitive to you. There's also another quick video on importing tips. Just some more knowledge so you feel empowered when you decide to take on the task of importing and organizing in Lightroom. One step at a time and you'll get there!
@@chrissydonadi Thank you so much Chrissy, I will definitely watch the video you linked to, the one with importing tips and go ONE step at a time; always such a good advice when things seem overwhelming.
Thanks for your encouragements!
Hi Chrissy, because this is lightroom classic, i wanted to know, does Lightroom cloud/web have the same multi keyword and search feature?
Rewelacja !!!!!~! Pozdrowienia z Polski
Nie ma za co! Very happy to hear!
Did you mention to make “To Sort” the place to put new keywords?
The "to sort" was simply a temporary and collapsible spot to put a long laundry list of keywords you want to organize into a hierarchy. Rather than continuously scrolling up and down to figure out where things should go, you can pull 5-10 out at a time and place them in the right spot in the hierarchy. Then, you can slowly work your way through all the keywords until everything feels organized. Alternatively, you can start with something that is named "1. Places" and drag all your location keywords under that keyword. Then, maybe name another keyword "2. Things" and drag keywords like trees, waterfall, etc. under that. I would try to put any new keywords created in the right place in your hierarchy structure. Hope that helps!
Fantastic exactly what I was looking for ….wish I had found this earlier before I did a lot of searching for this info elsewhere
So glad it helped and thank you for the feedback! And at least you found the info now - cheers!
I thought Lightroom automatically baked the keywords into the photos until I got a corrupted catalogue & lost everything... total nightmare, so much work all gone... lol
