This Week on The Grid: How Would I Edit Your Photo?

This week’s episode of The Grid brought back one of our favorite formats: How Would I Edit Your Photo? Scott Kelby and Erik Kuna rolled up their sleeves and worked through a variety of viewer-submitted images, showing exactly how they’d approach each edit using Lightroom, Camera Raw, and Photoshop.

The episode kicked off with a studio motorcycle shot that got a complete transformation thanks to masking, perspective corrections, and Generative Fill. From there, Scott tackled a lighthouse image from the Outer Banks, using sky masking and Generative Remove to clean up distractions and improve the overall balance of the scene. Other highlights included a challenging church interior that needed color correction and perspective fixes, plus a Milky Way composite where Erik demonstrated noise reduction, white balance adjustments, and blending a star-tracked sky with a twilight foreground.

The show wrapped up with a rapid-fire series of edits, including a sunset cityscape, an air-to-air aircraft image, and a couple’s portrait. Along the way, Scott also shared a preview of a Lightroom Update webcast with Adobe’s Terry White.

If you enjoy seeing real editing decisions made in real time, this episode is packed with practical tips and creative problem-solving. Watch the replay below and follow along with the edits.
