Lightroom Editing Tips with Neil Zeller
I’m Neil Zeller, a self-taught and technical photo editor who’s been working with Lightroom since the early days. My editing philosophy is simple: I want to bring the photo back to what I actually saw (the thing the camera sometimes struggles to translate), and even more importantly, how the scene made me feel. Every photo I edit is a little story: why I stopped, why I pressed the shutter, and how I can invite the viewer into that exact moment.

Finding Art in Motion: Shooting Surf with the Sony A9 III and 300mm f/2.8 G Master
As an action sports photographer, I’ve spent my career chasing movement. In the beginning it was snowboarding—being in the mountains, exploring different terrain and working with the riders to turn that terrain into a feature that can be captured in a photo.
But the water has always been my first love. There’s a peace that comes with duck diving under a wave, slipping beneath the chaos into a quiet stillness. And so, surfing became a natural extension of my work. It’s similar to being in the mountains while being completely different at the same time.
