In this week’s episode, we discuss RAW photo editing basics that professional photographers know that I wish I knew sooner. Editing RAW photos is one of the most intimidating and confusing aspects of photography. We all know that photographing in a RAW format provides the most flexibility from a post processing perspective, but how to get the most out of your RAW images can be overwhelming. In this video, I've created a simple 10 step workflow that you can follow in order to become more comfortable with a RAW photo editing process. I even took it a step further and created a step by step guide that you can download above and keep handy while you practice at home. I hope you enjoy this week's video and as always thanks so much for watching! - Mark D.

  • I've been watching Lightroom and photo editing videos for years, but no one has taught me so much meaningful information in one video as you. Thank you!
  • @deivytrajan
    I like the one with the mud in the bottom. It makes composition more interesting and a bigger story to tell than just a cute mountain with symmetrical reflection in the water.
  • @davide36923
    Beautiful work Mark. That solo mode is a godsend. You are the Man.
  • Been a while since I've visited YouTube and delighted to see the growth of your channel and career, and that your content remains at such a high level
  • @markh2719
    Always enjoy your videos Mark, but in particular I enjoy your post processing tutorials. I always learn something new from them, and its great to get your perspective and thoughts behind your editing decisions. I really like the version with the pool in the front, it adds more character to the image.
  • @frank1crayon
    Well done, Mark. Very informative. One thing I tend to do is be careful I don't make the sky darker than its reflection.
  • @cindyhead498
    Oh gosh! Thank you, your tips really help❣️📸 saving this for later!
  • Great walk through of your editing process, thank you Mark for sharing. Of the two photos, I prefer the one without the shoreline as it highlights to me, the mountain and its reflection.
  • @CooperCreativeCC
    This immediately upgraded my Lightroom repertoire. Cheers for the awesome advice!
  • @user-ft3vd4nk1o
    Hi Mark, Thanks for very good and informative videos 👍🏼 I would love to see your process when it comes to saving and categorising photos, the stages before you start to edit the photos. I have searched your videos but can’t find that you have done a video regarding that topic earlier. Keep up the good work 👍🏼 Best regards from Sweden 🇸🇪
  • @LyndaRossi
    I really like the crop, it’s less distracting. First time I’ve seen your channel & I’ll definitely be watching more from you. Thanks
  • Another great video Mark. So informative, more like this in the future please. I like the left hand crop version.
  • @danotoole6914
    I would go with the edge, but the other is good as well. Thanks for the download, it really helps when one is just starting out with editing. Love your channel.
