How to Edit like BRANDON WOELFEL : LIGHTROOM EDITING TUTORIAL

If you’re a Photography enthusiast and Instagram is where you spend most of the time looking for inspiration from Photographers around the world, then it is highly unlikely that you are new to the name ‘Brandon Woelfel’. His unique Photography and editing skills are loved by millions around the globe and he has even got the chance to shoot with Lilly Singh, the superwoman, as known as on YouTube.

You can check out his work on Instagram and his website here!

So now that you’ve seen his work, let’s learn how to get a similar result in any picture of yours.This is the closest I could get to decoding his editing style.

Brandon’s pictures are a bit underexposed so that the details in the neon lights is preserved. To bring out the face and the model from the shadows, we have to change the following things: Highlights to -33, Whites to +57 and Blacks to +100.
To get similar tones of pink and blue hues, we will work in the Camera Calibration settings. On the right panel, scroll down to the Camera Calibration and make the following changes:

Shadows Tint = -100

Red Primary: Hue = -21 , Saturation = -2

Green Primary: Hue = +14 , Saturation = +57

Blue Primary: Hue = -100 , Saturation = 0

His pictures have a hint of softness in them which we can achieve by reducing the clarity to -7 and Luminance to 12. You can find the Luminance slider under the Noise Reduction tab on the right panel.
To balance the Blue Hues, go the tab that says HSL/COLOR/B&W and select colour followed by selecting the colour Blue. Set its Hue to +44 and luminance to +69.
Finally, to brighten up the face, use a radial filter with the invert mask box checked, so that the changes we made are applied inside the circle and not outside. Increase the sharpness to 70 and increase the warmth to +7.

The Psychology of self motivation

What is it like feeling empowered? If you want to know if you feel empowered, ask yourself three questions: Can you do it? Will it work? Is it worth it? If your answer is yes for all them, you feel empowered. This is based on research. One feels self-motivated, competent when they receive recognition for their hard work. We are controlled by our consequences, we think so much before doing what scares us that the fear starts to drive us. Believe that you have a choice of not doing it, it will make you feel relaxed and self-motivated. There is nothing that you can't do if you have made up your mind on it. You are the universe's most evolved and advanced species, there is no one smarter, more intelligent or ahead of you. There might be some difficulties in your way, but let me tell you, these difficulties make it worth so much. Because nothing having worthwhile, comes easy. Obstacles mean you're going the right way, you just have to keep on going in that direction,...

Tips on how to save money the right way

1. Save before you spend You need to know what money is a fixed outcome each month e.g. rent/bills.

It quite easy to open a savings account online and manage this with online banking. Keep the fixed amount of rents separate so that you never by mistake spend too much. 2. Reduce the unnecessary spending Identify what you are spending your money on. Is it too many shoes or too many takeouts a week? Either way, there is something that we just can’t help from buying, and we don’t necessarily need it. Find out what is that is. 3. Set yourself some saving goals Focusing on the reason why you want to save.
