Download unedited RAWs from the cloud

[steaed_eddy91]

Is the following possible in Lightroom CC? I imported all the RAWs into the cloud (pre cull) and placed into a new album. Culled the dud photos within Lightroom (removing from the album, but no 'All Photos', as that is what pressing 'delete' does). I've done my edits, however I wanted to re-download the unedited RAWs as I agreed to this client's request that I'd provide RAW in addition to edited jpegs). I am aware that there is Lightroom Downloader, however if I am not mistaken, it just downloads all the photos sorted by date, so it won't reflect the cull I have done. Yes, I still have the RAWs on my PC, however it will be too tedious/time consuming to re-perform the culling process from scratch. I can't see an option to simply re-download a particular album as RAW.

Alternatively, if there is a way to delete all photos which are not part of an album, that would be a big help too. The way I do things, anything not stored in an album are photos that can be discarded.

Select all the thumbnails in the album and click the share button (top-right) and choose “Save to”

Select Original+Settings for file Type and choose a folder location for the downloads

Wait for the progress bar to finish and you will find your selected files in the specified location. Each one will have a separate XMP file.

thanks so much!

Also, in the search bar type: "Album: Not in any album"  to view the 'orphaned' photos.

This is a huge help. Thanks! Easily deleted all the dud photos that are lurking without an album.
