Adobe Photoshop Lightroom:
A Professional Photographer's Workflow
by Michael Clark

Updated July 2007 for Lightroom Version 1.1 and Photoshop CS3. Please note that Version 1.4.1 of Lightroom is no different in functionality than Version 1.1 - hence the book is still current. The 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4.1 upgrades were an under the hood performance and bug correction upgrades.

Also please note that I will update the Lightroom eBook for Version 2.0 once the software is finalized. Anyone who purchases the current version of the eBook from April 1st, 2008 and forward will receive a copy of the updated (Version 2.0) Lightroom eBook at no additional cost when it is available.

The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Workflow, a 106 page PDF e-book, is a workshop in book form. This workflow, while not exhaustive will cover the main topics of a shooting workflow then move into a RAW processing workflow with Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop CS3.
