Why Less Post-Production Makes You a Better Shooter

If your Lightroom catalogue is where your photos go to get fixed, rather than finished, this piece will sting a little. The argument isn't about which software wins. It's that leaning on post as a safety net trains you to shoot sloppily and compensate later. Get the exposure, the light, the composition right before you press the shutter, and your edit time collapses. That time goes back into actual shooting. Not a revolutionary idea, but one worth hearing again if your ratio of shooting hours to editing hours has quietly flipped.
