Lightroom Curves, Precision Tonal Adjustment

I’ve finally published my adaption of my Photoshop Curves e-Book for Lightroom users.

This book is a deep dive into Lightroom’s Curves tool. A hugely powerful tool for creative and surgical tonal control.

Please note that this is e-book is an adaption of my Photoshop Advanced Curves e-Book.

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

  • Plus: included Lightroom catalog + video tutorials for hands-on learning
