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!!

Actually, my husband has become quite the photo nut and he would so appreciate this. His pictures have improved exponentially in the last couple of months. seriously. AMAZING! I’m planning to print some of them to display in my office they’re so nice! But he would like to tweak them just a teence! This would fill the bill for him!
90% of my pictures are of the kids. When I was little I guess I used to smile at lightening because I thought my picture was being taken… My son is going to be the same way.
Wow, I really need this! I take my camera whenever I go to a get-together and especially when travelling! Niece’s wedding this weekend and Japan in July…definitely take the camera!
I take pictures of my grandchildren and a lot of wildlife in our back yard. Especially black bear
