What Adobe Lightroom costs
Lightroom is subscription only: the Lightroom plan with 1 TB of cloud storage, or the Photography plan that adds Photoshop. Both are paid monthly on a yearly plan, and prices vary by country.
Checked on 1 November 2026 on Adobe Lightroom's own pricing page. Prices change, so confirm there before you pay.
