If you wanted to find just Photo B you might try searching for “San Jose” and “Costa Rica” but that won’t help you, because in Lightroom CC a multiple keyword search uses “or” not “and”. If you search for “San Jose” in Lightroom CC you’ll get both photos in the results. But the “San Joses” are not unique in any way. Photo B, with the second “San Jose” applied, would end up with the keywords “Places”, “Costa Rica”, and “San Jose”.

So my main Lightroom Classic catalog has a mix of: I’ve also been using Lightroom CC on iOS for a while, both for capture and organization, and recently I’ve been using Lightroom CC on my secondary computer, especially when traveling. This part feels like you wrote it for me.Īs you know, I’m a longtime Lightroom user, with over 330,000 photos in one master Lightroom Classic catalog. But I do plan on doing it eventually, so I asked all the questions I could think to ask, and Benjamin generously allowed me to share his answers here. Which, by the way, I’m still not planning on doing soon. This is now really handy for me, because I get to ask him whatever questions I want about terrifying, confusing things like migrating 16 years of digital photography from Lightroom Classic to Lightroom CC.

I’ve known Ben since we were kids, and we’ve long had a mutual love of photography. In my last Lightroom post, I mentioned that my friend Benjamin Warde is a product manager on the Lightroom team.
