Welcome to your Lightroom Classic Starter Guide video!
When I went to film this video, I pretended I was walking my mom through the process of how to use Lightroom Classic! ….
Why? Because it’s hard to think back to the beginning.
What did I not understand? What was confusing? What did no one explain to me?
I went back to my roots and created this video as if I was telling a brand new photographer the in’s and out’s of Lightroom!
I have broken down the video into chapters for you to make it easier to follow along!
I am going to show you :
- How to import photos
- What features I do and don’t use
- The basic slides that build the foundation of my edits
- New features that I love in Lightroom Classic!
- How to export my final images
- And so much more!
If you are asking yourself these questions:
- “I don’t even know when I am going to get good photos”
- “I don’t know when I am shooting well or not shooting well”
…then the KJ Photography Starter Course is a great place to start for you! I literally created this course around these 2 questions!!
I hope this was helpful for you today!! Click below to watch the full video!

This week, Michael is sitting down with me at the microphone to join me on the podcast! When we started our Acton Academy journey, we had big dreams and very little idea of the practical challenges that lay ahead. Today, in year three of running our own Acton Academy, Michael and I are thrilled to reflect on the incredible transformation we’ve seen in our learners, our community, and even our own perspectives on education.
Photography is an art that thrives on creativity and technique. If you don’t have the basics of lighting and posing down, this tip won’t work- but if you’re looking to elevate your style, this is for you!!
In this episode of “Doing Life Differently”, I sat down with my friend Catherine Guidry, a luxury wedding photographer and educator, to discuss the challenges and rewards of personal branding. Cat and I dug deep into how sharing more of ourselves—while still maintaining boundaries—can transform our businesses, relationships, and personal lives.
This is not a technical review filled with specs, but rather a practical perspective on how the R6 Mark II performs in everyday photography situations!
I had the pleasure of chatting with Erica and Jon, two incredibly talented photographers and educators who have redefined their business and life by embracing change. From leaving a corporate career to transforming their wedding photography business into a thriving brand photography venture, their story is full of inspiration for anyone looking to take bold steps and live life on their own terms.
