Lynda - Kids Photography: Retouching with Lightroom Classic CC and Photoshop

Photographing kids comes with a unique set of challenges. The best portrait of a kid might be a quirky shot of a kid with a funny expression—not usually what you're looking for in adult portraiture. When it comes to retouching, you're more likely to be cleaning up a runny nose than softening wrinkles.

In this course, photographer Erika Thornes shows how to review a kid photo shoot to find the best shot of the bunch. Then, she dives into Lightroom Classic CC and Photoshop and details a variety of retouching challenges and solutions—including cleaning up that messy nose.
Topics include:
Selecting and editing the hero shot
Making a clean edit in Lightroom
Adjusting exposure and white balance
Cropping images
Working with layers and masks
Using Photoshop to remove stray hairs, brighten eyes, and remove scabs
Swapping faces in Photoshop
