Photo Editing with Snapseed & Lightroom Mobile

Edit phone photos like a pro: exposure, colour, retouching, presets and client-ready exports

Ghosla Academy · Design Team

This course teaches photo editing entirely on your phone using two free apps: Google's Snapseed and Adobe Lightroom Mobile. You will start with the fundamentals every editor needs, such as the histogram, exposure and white balance, and then learn each app's most useful tools step by step. Later modules cover real-world jobs: natural portrait retouching, e-commerce product photos, building presets for a consistent style, and exporting the right files for clients and social platforms. Two projects give you before/after samples for your portfolio.

What you will be able to do

  • Follow a clean editing workflow from crop to export
  • Read a histogram and fix exposure, contrast and white balance
  • Use Snapseed tools: Tune Image, Selective, Brush, Healing, Perspective and Expand
  • Use Lightroom Mobile's Light, Color, HSL, Color Grading and Masking
  • Retouch portraits naturally and prepare honest e-commerce product photos
  • Build presets for a consistent look and export correctly for each platform

What you build

  • Before/after edit set across 3 photo types
  • Client edit package with a custom preset

What you need to start

  • A smartphone with Snapseed and Adobe Lightroom Mobile installed (free versions)
  • Your own photos to practise on
