SIMPLE SHORTCUTS & SECRETS
Photo Editing Made Easy
For busy wedding & portrait photographers so you can close that laptop sooner.
Whoa. 😳
This is so big I’m not even going to preamble this email. You HAVE to see the latest update to Lightroom!
Your Weekly Photo Editing Tip
Lightroom’s latest update is version 13.3. If you haven’t updated it yet, you will want to do it A.S.A.P!
The biggest, newest thing that EVERYONE will be talking about is the Generative AI remover tool and Object Aware tool. It is going to be a game-changer!
You’ll notice in the Develop module that the healing tool band aid icon has been changed to the eraser icon under the histogram.
The heal tool and stamp tool is still there and functioning as usual. The magic AI is in the remover eraser tool. Tap on that and you’ll see this new wonder!
If you use the Generative AI by itself it’s like a smarter version of the healing tool. Just highlight around the item you want to erase and tap apply. So far in my tests, this has worked really well.
If you use Generative AI with the Object Aware option, you can actually erase people from behind pillars and pesky signs from backgrounds, etc. It is mind-blowing!

So because it’s AI, it takes a few seconds to “think” but then it gives you three options to choose from if needed.
This update in Lightroom will make it so that you don't have to go into Photoshop as much to make edits like these. Talk about another time-saver!
Don’t walk, RUN to update your Lightroom so you can test this out yourself!
Happy editing,
Erika
