If anyone asks me my favorite editing software for all of my photos, without hesitation I say Lightroom. No question. I’ve never been a photoshop gal because of the learning curve. Lightroom is so easy to use, I was so excited to learn that I figured it out in just minutes. (I am not tech savvy at all)
It sure makes my job easy as a food blogger being able to touch up my photos ever so slightly to get just what I am looking for.

There are so many before and after pictures I can show you, but this is one I did just last week when I was photographing my Double Chocolate Butterfinger Cake. We had some friends over and their dog was outside my window watching my cake, lol! I snapped a photo and as you can see on the left, it was dark and gray. With just a few touch ups from Lightroom you get the picture on the right. Love!!

I take pics of my kids.
I take the most photos of my family and friends. My critters and food.
This would be amazing for pictures of family and my adorable nephew! 😀
I photograph my grandsons the most by far! They just make for the cutest photos!!
My furbabies! Myles and Rudy make the best subjects. They don’t always like to cooperate, but if they know there is a peanut butter bone on the horizon, they will do whatever mama tells them!
Right now, photographing my daughters’ sports are my passion. I struggle with basketball due to the lighting but I am getting pretty good at the outdoor sports, such as soccer & softball.
I take pictures of my kids. I’ll have a Senior in high school next year & will take her Senior pictures using my fancy camera
I take photos of my kids the most, that and parties of mine. But, I never seem to get into any pictures!!
I love photographing my family! They are so photogenic!!!
Normally I take pics of the plants and wee critters I find when hiking where the lighting can be horrid and you don’t always get a chance to frame everything in like you would prefer. 🙂
Love taking pictures of family and recording those special times
I take all the pictures for our local Humane Society of their adoptable pets and put them on the internet, send to newspapers etc. I would love to have lightroom to help with the editing.
I take pictures of friends, my sisters, great views and gardens!
Family, dogs, holiday moments
I take so many photos of my daughter! I can’t believe what a difference the Lightroom makes! Wow!
pictures of family
I photograph my family the most, but have tried with little success to photograph my recipes. I need to take a photography class and the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4 would be a great place to start my learning

I love taking pics of my kids. They are a great inspiration!
I love to take pictures of nature and old buildings. There is so much character and uniqueness that you can capture just in taking pictures at the Botanical Gardens or going downtown and taking pictures of an old factory or a worn out cobblestone road. You can’t recreat the intricate details of life and time.
Grandson and pets!
I take pictures of my family!

My 2 boys! Vacations!
I would have to say my cat. She’s 21 years old and I try to capture a photo of her every day… something that captures her spirit… something to remember her by
I love to take pics of my sweet baby boy. Thanks for the giveaway!
I take photos of my boys and of course my sweet creations. I have a light box to help with photos but would like to do more food shots that I could use a program like this. I just recently have taken the plunge to Perdue my dream and be home with my boys to start my baking business. I would love to get all my photos edited. Right now I aM using Ribbit online. I want to also do some more shot of my boys as my camera isn’t too bad but its amazing what a little editing can do ad in the pic you showed! Thank you!! Carmen
I take photos of my items that I create. I am dying to win this software, it make such a difference!
