If you can do this, then you’ll be steps ahead of most photographers. Some edits work better early on (like exposure or white balance) and some are best left to the end (like sharpening and noise reduction).
Once you see a pattern developing, look at that pattern to see if you are approaching those edits in the best order. Is it an effect you like? Is it helping your images overall? What happens if you take a different approach?Īnswering these questions will help you identify your preferred workflow and then challenge you to make it better. Over time, you’ll discover that you tend to make the same adjustments to a large majority of the images. You don’t need to write down every detail, but keep track of the basics. I still do this by keeping a small notepad near my computer. Start by taking notes about how you edit a photo. This isn’t something that you can do immediately but mores so something that you will develop as you edit more and more photos. This is something that even professionals sometimes fail to do. A consistent and repeatable workflow is the single most important factor for both efficiency and developing a consistent and noticeable style.
