russell_t Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 <p>Hi All,<br> I use LR5, and I was just curious how you deal with dual watermarks on images (left and right sides).</p> <p>A little back story... I shoot for a local adult sports league, and recently they got sponsored by Miller Lite, so now I need to put their logo on one side and the Miller Lite logo on the other side. Previously I have put their logo / my copyright on the right side, exported all images at 2048 and it kept the logo the same size on all.</p> <p>Being that I shoot sports, the short edge is not always the same size... it's between 900 and 1800 pixels. If I make one wide image for both sides, some are really small and some are really large.</p> <p>I can't be the first person with this problem... does anybody have any recommendations how to alleviate this issue?</p> <p>Thanks!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lex_jenkins Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 <p>Lightroom doesn't appear to have a built in function for more than one watermark, but I seem to recall seeing a preset or other add-on that does this. Check <a href="http://regex.info/">Jeffrey Friedl's website</a>.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellis_vener_photography Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Check out the Mogrify plug-in for Lightroom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellis_vener_photography Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 You can create a graphic element in Photoshop using the logos on a transparent background and apply it in Lightroom. It should automatically resize to the actual photo area.

russell_t Posted July 14, 2014 Author Share Posted July 14, 2014 <p>Thanks for the feedback Lex and Ellis, I'll try those tonight when I get home.<br> <br />Ellis, the problem with the transparent background is when I use a portrait image, the width will vary, causing the logos to shrink or grow proportionally, since the transparent space in-between doesn't adjust.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellis_vener_photography Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 I was thinking you would incorporate both logos into a single element, not as two different elements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
