Ultimate Solution - Lightroom Curves, Precision Tonal Adjustment
The ‘Solution’ comprises two e-books + access to online videos.
Tonal Relationships
‘Tonal Relationships’ gives you the ‘why’, when editing. Understanding the tones within an image is the process of learning to ‘read’ an image. Once you can read the image in tonal terms, the intention behind every edit becomes clear.
Lightroom Curves
‘Lightroom Curves’ gives you the ‘how to’ part of tonal adjustment.
This book is a deep dive into Lightroom’s Curves tool, a hugely powerful tool for precision tonal control.
It teaches:
The theory behind curves (how tones are mapped and manipulated)
How to use curves for specific tonal regions (shadows, midtones, highlights)
Both simple adjustments (like contrast or brightness tweaks) and advanced techniques (like lifting shadows without affecting contrast)
Practical workflows using masking + curves together
Subtle but critical topics like:
Contrast vs saturation relationships
Avoiding highlight/shadow clipping
Precision control using the histogram and “adjust” tool
Real examples with before/after images + exact curve setups
