How To Instantly Transform The Look Of Your Photo in ACR (in just seconds!)
Ever wish your photo had just a slightly different look? Maybe something a bit more creative or maybe a vintage flare?
Sometimes it can be tricky to edit a photo the way you’d like it to look, or maybe you’re not even really sure HOW you want it to look. Well, my friend, I want to share something really cool with you that’s inside of ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) And for all my Lightroom users out there- this will work for you too.
Let’s take a look and learn how to instantly transform the look of your photos in ACR.
First
Make sure that you are using the most updated version of ACR inside the Creative Cloud. Adobe Creative Cloud is ALWAYS my top recommendation for editing software because you get Photoshop, Lightroom and ACR included as well as all the updates. You just gotta make sure you run the updates so you’re always using the most updated version. ( I have to admit I am guilty of skipping an update sometimes)
Next
Open up the photo that you want to work on.

Look to the upper right hand side of the screen. You will see a drop down menu that says profile. Click on the down arrow next to that and go all the way down to where it says browse.

Hi Emily, I get a lot from your easy to follow tuts.
Many others I have watched become bogged down in detail, often switching back and forth obviously to leave the viewer in no doubt that the tutor is a master. However it does little to teach.Yours on the other hand are easy to follow, so your obviously a wonderful teacher .. Thank you so much.In New Zealand we are so limited to learning PS so your a breath of fresh air…..Neil
