6 Export and Share Online

You can make all the edits you want in Lightroom Classic, but when you look at the original image file on disk, it won’t be changed. To share an edited version of a photo—whether that’s posting it to social media or sending copies to friends— you must export it out of Lightroom as a new file that incorporates your adjustments.

Creative Cloud offers a very cool option that I use frequently, though. You can share a collection in a web gallery where other people who have access can view, rate, and comment on the images. It’s a great option when sharing proofs with a client or event photos with friends and family.
