How to add REALISTIC LIGHT using LIGHTROOM's INTELLIGENT PRESETS

[@PaulTimlett]

I love your tutorials. They are so clear and easy to follow, and repeating the steps several times is the sign of a great teacher.

[@glyndewis]

Thank you so much Paul

[@toreaasland8085]

I have used this a lot lately. What Lightroom have done lately is just sooo good.

[@glyndewis]

Sure is. Very excited to see how it continues to develop.

[@andreak4280]

wow’ brilliant feature, looks like it works great!! thanks so much for showing this feature in use Glyn

[@glyndewis]

You’re welcome Andrea

[@stellanewman4514]

Another simple but elegant way to enhance a picture. I'm going now to see if it works with non-humans and also still-life stuff. Many thanks :)

[@glyndewis]

Nice one … glad you like it Stella

[@bryanevans5398]

The simplicity of this is brilliant. Not sure, I would ever have thought of making it a preset but this saves a ton of time and adds a lot of potential to the creativity of the edit! Thanks for this tip!

[@glyndewis]

You’re welcome Bryan … thanks

[@StewartWoodArt]

This is brilliant, it makes me want to do portraits again. Thank you Glyn for sharing your knowledge!

[@edwardhubbard4947]

This is the perfect LR tutorial - limited in scope, clear, and puts a great tool in my toolbox.

[@glyndewis]

Thank you so much

[@tracyedwards3354]

Got to have a try at this! Thanks for sharing ☺️

[@glyndewis]

👍

[@LeoniekvdVliet]

I seem to forget that making an action of frequently used steps in Lightroom will be so clever and handy, thanks for this Glynn!

[@glyndewis]

No worries 😉

[@paulpiasecki]

Wow! Will use this technique on my next shoot!

[@glyndewis]

👍🏻

[@dmagi15]

Gotta tell you, I LOVED THAT!

[@glyndewis]

Great to hear that 😃

[@davidecomba5429]

Hey mate, in one word: FANTASTIC!

[@glyndewis]

Thanks so much mate

[@RDBLOOMFIELDPHOTOGRAPHYLLC]

Great Tutorial as always! Can’t wait to use this on my next “studio” style session!

[@DikoJelev]

Thank you for this video. I use Lightroom all the time but never thought of doing it like that. So simple and actually so effective

[@glyndewis]

Glad you like it ... thanks for watching

[@hapewild]

Well done !!! Thank you very much.

[@glyndewis]

You’re welcome

[@MilmidStudios]

Excellent tutorial. Very useful information. Many thanks!

[@steffore1]

Fabulous information 👍🏽

[@paddycrowley337]

Timing is impeccable! I’m doing portraits soon for 30 kids using the 50% grey xpro background. This will really make them pop.. and quickly!

[@glyndewis]

That’s great to hear

[@timskinnercanada]

Was pleased to see this all works on the iPad mobile version too! Fantastic tips presented clearly and concisely. Thank you. :)

[@glyndewis]

Thanks so much Tim

[@Freddy2Noel]

Awesome tip, and a brilliant video, as always. Thank you, Glyn.

[@RichardGingrasPhotography]

Thank you so much for posting this video. It answered a question I had about how to do this and you made it so simple. Keep up the good work.

[@glyndewis]

Glad this helped Richard

[@addiea5181]

I was doing the same thing with select background and intersect with radial mask. This light work better. Thanks for sharing. I never stop learning new tricks from you Glyn.

[@richknecht2570]

Once again, great video. I have been using this technique since the amazing masks were added to ACR and the results are pretty amazing. You make it very easy to understand and, as always, your end results never look "overcooked" and appear very natural.

[@rorifree]

Brilliant, thank you!

[@glyndewis]

Thanks a lot

[@BrotherJLG]

Very helpful. I was editing a portrait just yesterday trying to work something like this out.

[@Sunday_Jazz]

Astonishing the capabilities of Lightroom now. Thanks for sharing

[@WaltherVlaanderen]

Great tutorial, thanks a lot.

[@glyndewis]

You’re welcome

[@allehman5095]

Glyn, Thanks for the awesome intelligent preset tutorial. Your presentation is very clear, easy to follow and you present it so it's easy to understand. If I had to make one nit, that would be to identify the lightroom version you are using. Sometimes newer versions change commands or their location. I will be looking for more of your tutorials. Do you have a list? You are a superb teacher. Thanks

[@pejo173]

Great as always 😊

[@glyndewis]

Thanks a lot

[@alaninglisphotography]

Thanks Glyn. Used this technique for the first time on an edit last night. Worked a treat. Best regards.

[@glyndewis]

Fantastic to read this; cheers Alan

[@johnmcnaughton6808]

[@glyndewis]

That’s very kind of you to say that … thank you

[@norbertalexy8803]

This is brilliant, Glyn! Thank you. I thought I had understood the masking quite well, you're teaching me: I didn't. I'm happy about this new one...

[@glyndewis]
