Adobe Lightroom 2 allows photographers to edit photos from entire shoots at one time. It also allows for the inputting of metadata on a large group of photographs, which provides digital information about the photograph, including the photographer and copyright holder, camera used and date taken. If you have loaded images into iPhoto and would like to edit the images using Adobe Lightroom 2, you can quickly export your iPhoto data and then open it using Lightroom 2.
