CILightroom Mobile Masking Tips You NEED to Know 📱🔥
If you're not using masking in Lightroom Mobile, you're missing powerful edits. Here’s how to level up:
1. Use “Select Subject” First
Masking → Select Subject.
Slightly brighten your subject.
Tap Invert and darken the background for instant depth.
2. Use “Select Sky” for Landscapes
Masking → Select Sky.
Lower highlights, add dehaze, and adjust temperature slightly.
3. Brush with Low Flow
Increase feather for soft edges.
Lower flow and build adjustments slowly for natural results.
4. Create Multiple Masks
Use separate masks for face, hair, background, clothes, and sky.
Cleaner edits = professional look.
5. Use Color Range
Masking → Color Range.
Tap the color you want to adjust (sky, clothes, background).
Refine with the Amount slider.
6. Use Luminance Range
Great for fixing blown highlights or adjusting only shadows without affecting everything.
7. Use Face Detection for Portraits
Select face areas like skin and eyes.
Lightly brighten eyes.
Slightly reduce skin texture.
Keep it natural.
8. Use Linear Gradient for Better Lighting
Drag from one side to create directional light.
Darken foreground or add warmth for a cinematic feel.
9. Check Your Mask Overlay
Tap the mask to see the red overlay.
Zoom in and clean edges if needed.
10. Think Depth, Not Brightness
Brighten subject.
Darken background.
Add subtle vignette.
Save this and try it on your next edit 🔥
