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 photos of my kids the most!! I do project life so I take photos of bascially my every day life!! Thanks for the chance!
My cats are my favourite.
It is a toss up at my house, I take a picture of almost everything I bake but when my kids come to visit well…………….After an hour or so they start to man & groan, “You want to take another picture Mom?” lol! I can’t help myself! My editing software is so old that I really need to update. The Lightroom Software looks like it would be just what I need!
I love to take pictures of my boys!
Mostly my family- but when we travel, it’s more nature, architecture, scenery-
I most often take pictures of my environment, I used to be beautiful landscapes back when I lived in the country and now I’m finding beauty in the everyday objects in a large city.
I take mostly pictures of my travels and food adventures with my friends 😀
I mostly take shots of people and travels. Thank you for this opportunity.
I mostly take pictures of friends and family…
1. Thanks! I love taking pictures of my kids.
I take the most pictures of my son. He’s my one and only and I think he’s so darn cute. Of course I’m just a little bit biased.
I mostly take pictures of scenery and the pretty places I visit–I love to travel!
definitely my kiddos!!!
I just took a ton of shots of my little niece too! So many turned out well, but I still need to do a bit of editing! Would love to have Lightroom!!!! 🙂
I take photos of my daughter, places we visit, animals and sightseeing spots.
My cat mostly. It’s sad really.
I’ve been practicing for my first trip to Disneyland in a few weeks. I’ve been to the Florida parks plenty of times, but this will be my first time at the original ‘happiest place on earth’. I hope I come back with some good shots.
My kiddos!
I take photos of my boys and pets.
I love taking pictures of my yellow lab and my family!
I take the most pictures of my friends.
Mostly of the family.
I love taking pics of my kids. My son is really photogenic.
Definitely my kiddos!
my kids and pets!!
We definitely take pictures of our pets more often than we photograph any other object or person. Our cats are my fiance’s first pets and he still has that child-like joy and fascination over having wild critters share his living space. When I’m home, I most often photograph my nephew. I miss him terribly and am so thankful I loaded up on pictures for all of those years so I never have an excuse not to see his little face!
My two beautiful children.
mostly of our bulldog and our manx cat
My camera comes out mostly for food, whenever I’m with my ‘little’ friends, and of course when traveling.
I definitely take pictures of my son the most.
My toddler gets the most pictures. Lately our little chicks come second – they’re actually growing faster than my daughter!
I especially like taking pictures of my family.
First my beautiful towheaded boys–then all of the food for my blog and newspaper column. I definitely need to invest in some photo software.
My cat is on first place
My hubby and extended family!
