Lightroom or Lightroom Classic: Which Do I Need in 2024?
Whether you’re a long time user of Lightroom or Lightroom Classic, OR you’re brand new to editing and just wondering which program to get, you’ve probably come to realize that there are two different programs available from Adobe, both (confusingly!) called Lightroom.
This always raises a lot of questions, particularly for those who are just starting out on their editing journey and are confused about which one they should get, and the differences between the two!
Adobe does make absolutely top-notch, wonderful editing programs, but sometimes they don’t make it easy to determine which one will suit you best.
Never fear, Audrey’s here!
