Make Your Own Poster with Lightroom Classic

Spinning Carnival Ride Poster
Western Montana Fair


Lightroom Classic's Print module lets you create inspirational posters using a single iconic image. After selecting a 16x20 paper size, I chose one of my all-time favorite pictures of a carnival ride to make this poster highlighting the local fair. I added the orange border around the image by selecting a color from the photo itself. Then I adjusted the bottom margin to give more room for a title and selected a western style font. I also used the same color for the type as I used for the border. Once you've created a design or layout that you like, you can save it as a template. Then it's easy to make a new poster by selecting a different image and adjusting the type and border to match.
