Cropping Photos in Lightroom: Basic Post-Processing Tips

Yesterday I told you that I asked one of our previous Santa Fe workshop attendees to send me some photos so our own Shelly Perry could record herself critiquing them and provide you with tricks for cropping photos in Lightroom.
I want you to learn not only how to critique your own photos but also how to avoid making the same mistakes this attendee made in the first place.
Here’s Shelly’s video, with tips on cropping photos in Lightroom.
Our goals for this upcoming Santa Fe stock photography workshop, where you’ll have the opportunity to take pictures like this, are simple:
GOAL #1: To learn the ins and outs of breaking into online stock photography, where you can turn your photos of family, pets, even furniture and household items into a passive income stream… earning you money while you sleep.
GOAL #2: To enhance your portfolio with images from the Bonanza Creek Ranch and other locations in and around our hotel in Santa Fe. You’ll be guided by professional photographers there to help you set up your camera, get the right exposure, and otherwise help you build your portfolio.
GOAL #3: To learn Photoshop and Lightroom post-processing techniques that’ll make you look like a pro and help you sell more shots.
GOAL #4: To give you feedback on your work so you can see what mistakes you make, correct them, and never make them again.
And remember — as of 5:00PM yesterday, we had just 13 seats left. I won’t know till Monday morning, when the office opens back up, how many people responded to yesterday’s note. So if you’d like to sign up, you’d better do so fast. Before the last seat is gone.
Have a good rest of your weekend!
