Question

how to start a new document?

Hey guys,

 

So I'm fairly new to Lightoom CC. Atm I use it mainly for organizing work photos, not editing. I have folders and albums created for all photos that relate to work. However, I want to create a new document (or whatever it's called) to organize my personal photos. Strictly for personal photos, meaning, I don't want my work folders and albums to be available because other people use this computer for those photos, so I just want to be able to open a separate file for my personal use. 

 

Is there a way to do this with Lightroom CC? I suppose it's probably something you can do with Lightroom Classic since everything is stored ont the computer (I'm just assuming), but with CC?

 

thanks so much in advance!

You mean you want to start a second library. Unfortunately, Lightroom does not support that.
