How do you build an architectural portfolio without existing clients? In this architectural photo editing tutorial, we'll look at that as I share photo editing tips and techniques for architecture with Adobe Lightroom before we look at how Luminar can act as the perfect plugin to help finesse your edit.

Here I share my approach to a full commercial building edit using a photo of the Valencia Science Museum I took whilst travelling. But wandering around the City you live in may reveal buildings worth capturing.

The edit in Lightroom is a comprehensive photo edit with that toolset but if you want to take things one step further and really create work that stands out to your potential clients then a plugin like Luminar is a must. I use Luminar AI on a regular basis for finishing my imagery. You can get Luminar AI with a discount using code ATSKY10 from here: https://bit.ly/Lum-AI

bit.ly/3dpGeub - An insanely powerful panel for Photoshop which helps create precise luminosity masks and much more. Extremely useful for bringing back blown out highlights or crushed shadows. The video series on luminosity blending is also the best I've seen on the topic.
