The composition on these are on point, but her hair frizz is distracting af.

It's more time consuming with stuff outside that doesn't have a static background, but I use this sometimes when the hair is just out of control...

Photoshop better than light room?

My workflow always starts in Lightroom.

I only get into Photoshop if I have to really retouch something specific to that image. Like loose hair in those videos for example. I'll make bulk of the edits based around the color/white balance and exposure in Lightroom and when I'm happy with that, I'll then edit it in Photoshop if I need to remove or retouch something.

You can do more in Photoshop, but it's far more complex so I only use it for real specific changes I'm trying to make.

Depends on what you shoot. if you need to heavily retouch, do some beauty, or phto composite shyt, photoshop is more powerful. but if your shooting events, food/product and some beauty that doesnt need to be heavily edited, then lightroom is all you would really need. lightroom also keeps your files manageable. folders, file size etc.. phtoshop will make your files big as fukk.

you'd have to crank your ISO way up and shoot at like f8 or above. photo might look like ass cuz you have the ISO up all the way. so you'd have to introduce strobes/flash into the setting so that you'd have enough light
