Question: How Do I Crop a Horizontal Photo Vertically in Lightroom?
Contents

How do you crop vertically in Lightroom?

And while Lightroom has a built-in cropping tool available, it’s not super obvious on how to change orientations. To do so, start by using the crop tool and then click the X key on your keyboard. If you’re cropping an image that’s originally horizontal, this will change the orientation to vertical, and vice versa.

How do I crop a horizontal picture vertically?

When you’re in Crop mode (the keyboard shortcut is R), all you have to do is press the letter X and it’ll switch your crop orientation automatically. If it’s horizontal, it’ll make it vertical. If it’s vertical, it’ll do the opposite. That’s it!
