  1. This one has helped me big time. Aaron makes it so easy and relaxed to learn and I’ve been able to speed up my workflow process a lot! Highly recommend this course

  2. I have dabbled with the LR masking tools but didn’t realise the extent and power of all the tools, not to mention combining them. Another amazing set of tutorials, Thank you.

  3. Awesome I have levant so much from this course on masking in Lightroom. The knowledge gained here is equally useful in Camera Raw.

  4. Your tutorials are just the next level, clear, informative, to the point, great examples! I like the way you take the viewer through your thinking, showing your working flow and the different possible ways to get there.

  5. I´ve been playing with masks for a while in LR and for years in Photoshop so I thougt I pretty much know it all but oh boy was I wrong:). This takes my editing in LR to a different level. Thank you sir!

  6. So awesome. Learned new techniques that will be helpfull! Would be great if you would do one on face retouching in lightroom too and on using ai presets in lightroom.

  7. Great course, I thought I knew a reasonable amount about masking but this took it to an entirely different level, so easy to follow too.

  8. Soooo good, learned a lot 🙂

  9. Thank you. Excellent attention to details and technique . Makes me feel maybe I can get there with a lot effort.

  10. Really good tutorial. Thank you!

  11. Been having a blast going through all kinds of old images and tinkering with masking. I’ve found sometimes that in instances with tree branches and sky masks (might work with hair as well, I don’t work a lot with models) where I subtract a luminance or color mask while zoomed in I can get it to refine some of the finer edges and details nicely as well.

  12. I just signed up for the pro tutorials for the year and this was the first one that open and it was great. I was working on some photos and decided to use some of what I learned and it helped a lot. The trick now is to continue using what was learned before I forget what was learned. Great start.

  13. This AI masking is just crazy, can’t even imaging where it’ll be in the future, but with your video, I just want to go back to my old pics and AI mask them all from scratch, great one, thank you.

  14. Fantastic lessons highlighting the potential of the latest updates of Lightroom Classic.

  15. Another great course! Thanks Aaron. You always explain things so clearly.

  16. An absolutely great review of all the new masking features since the last update! Thank you!!

  17. I learned a lot I am rather new to lightroom and now I know much more of masking!

  18. Thank you once more Aaron. These on-going tutorials keep us up-to-date and provide the very best references to return to from time to time.

  19. Very good Course, not only about masking techniques but also a lot of background info on how to edit ‘person’ photos and let your subject stand out.

  20. Really, really good…. Aaron took the new masking tools and gave us real world examples on how to use them. Thanks Aaron!!

  21. I do not know why you will not let me subscribe but I thank you for the years you gave me

  22. thank you so much I really learned a lot as always you are a fantastic instructor

  23. A great and short introduction to the new ai masking tools. After this tutorial, I was able to use the tools confidently

  24. No one on Youtube has explained the masking functionality of ACR as comprehensively as Aaron. Now I have full knowledge of its possibilities, which are truly remarkable.

  25. Great tutorial Aaron. These new masking features are a real game changer. Before watching this I thought that I had already mastered masking but as always I picked up lots of useful techniques that I hadn’t considered before now. Thanks and keep up the great work

  26. Brilliant .. as always 🙂
