Every time a big new Adobe update is released, people usually fall into two categories. Those who are terrified of upgrading because things will be different, broken or slow - and people like me - who can't wait to upgrade to check out all the new features!

For those resistant to change (I do understand, really - those are valid concerns) there's some good news. You have ME to guide you through the changes! There's nothing I love more than diving into new tools or functionality in my favourite Adobe editing programs.

Lightroom Classic 12.0 brings us new AI-Powered Masking functions - making selections of people, objects and backgrounds faster and better than ever before. Plus, we'll take a look at the new Healing with Content-Aware Remove. Is this finally the quick and easy leash-removal solution that pet photographers around the world have been waiting for?

Find out what I love, and what I don't love, about the latest updates to Lightroom Classic!

If you like these quick tutorials, you'll love our premium Unleashed Edits - full start-to-finish editing tutorials in Lightroom and Photoshop. These are available in our membership (along with a tonne of amazing pet photography education). We hope to see you there!
