In this tutorial, we are going to take a look at how to add keyword sets that you can use to quickly add related keywords to your photos in Lightroom.
Library Module
Click on the Library heading in the module picker to get to the Library module.
Keywording Panel
In the right sidebar, click on the keywording heading to expand it (if it isn’t already). Then look at the bottom of the panel, where you can see the keyword set part.
Edit the Set
Next to the Keyword Set title, there is a dropdown box. Click on it and from the menu that comes up, select "Edit set…".
Filling in your keywords
In the boxes that are either filled or empty, fill in the keywords that you want to make into a set. After you are done, click on the dropdown menu at the top.
Saving the set
When clicking on the dropdown menu, this menu should come right up (with the middle part being the keyword sets that you already have). What you want to click on is, "Save Current Settings as New Preset". You will then be asked for a name. After that, just click create and you have your own keyword set!
