Search, filter, and sort photos

Search photos

Find photos using the Search bar. Aside from searching photos by metadata and keywords, Lightroom can find and display photos based on the objects in them,facets associated with the photo, or photos that are not in any album.

Type any of the object name , or a facetname followed by a colon ':' in the Search bar. For example, you can type mountains in the Search bar to quickly search for all photos that have mountainsin them, or you can type camera:to display a list of camera models used. The terms used in Search bar are not case-sensitive.

When you begin typing in the Search bar, Lightroom automatically adds a search facet of the album or the folder you are currently viewing. For example, if you are viewing photos from an album named Landscape, a search facet for this album is automatically added in the Search bar as you begin typing your search keyword.

Type 'not in any album' in the Search bar to view all photos that are currently not part of an album.

Starting from Lightroom desktop version 3.0, simply click the search bar to view an array of options based on which you can search photos. These options include ratings, flags, camera settings, metadata such as location or keyword, and file. Click an option to include it in your search and see a list of possible values for the chosen facet.

Change photo capture time

Lightroom allows you to adjust the date and time of an individual photo or a group of photos. Sometimes you need to change the capture time for your photos after clicking them. For example, you might need to change the capture times if you traveled to a different time zone and didn't change your camera's date/time setting before you started photographing. Another scenario could be that you added a scanned photo to Lightroom and want the capture time to show the date on which the image was photographed rather than the date on which it was scanned.

Select one or more photos in the Photo Grid, Square Grid, or Filmstrip in the Detail view.


Bring up the Info panel by clicking the () icon at the lower-right corner of the screen. In the Info panel, click the () icon next to the Captured field displaying the capture date and time.

If you've selected a single photo, the Edit Date & Time dialog that appears displays the current date and time of your photo. Change the date and time to a desired value.



Edit Date & Time dialog | Changing the capture time of a single photo.

If you've selected a group of photos, the Shift Date Range dialog displays the current date range of your selection. The new date and time that you specify is applied to the photo with the most recent capture date in the group. Other selected photos automatically shift based on this new date.
