As I have found with a lot of the images I post that contain any type of explanation, many ask for detailed step by step instructions. So with this post-processing series I will be doing my best to include the play by play on how I achieved the final effect. This image, used with permission, was taken of a local Special Response Team (SRT) and I processed it to give it a more dramatic effect. This tutorial is a bit lengthy so hang in there. Read more »

“Bring the Rain” | 52.10
So it is safe to say I have been slacking with this 52 weeks thing. No really, slacking. It has been nearly 3 months since my last weekly shot, but you see, I have good reason. Back in January my wife and I welcomed our second daughter into the world and life has not been the same ever since. The free time I get is used very wisely and naturally paying gigs come before my personal projects. Still, this project provided a much needed outlet for me, something I have been missing quite a bit. Read more »

This image, which is a self-portrait, was merely an experiment with my new lights, trigger, with a bit of make-up thrown in the mix. Read more »
Model Photography: Post-Process Guide
Posted in How To, Resources, Tutorials by dub | Tags: color efex, model shoot, nik, photoshop tutorial, plugin, post-process, postprocess, psdtuts, stock photography, sxc, tutorial
I am a little hesitant about labeling this as a tutorial as there are other sites that cover this method. It would perhaps be more appropriate to describe this as following me along my creative processing of an image. Basically, after processing several images from a recent model shoot and getting the usual images out the door, I then moved to do something a little bit different with some of the other images.
With this image, the model Zan J has an awesome serious look, but an even better smile. I want to play on that and bring in some vivid colors and show some movement and dynamics with the imagery. To follow along, you will need Adobe Photoshop, Nik Color Efex 3.0, and a free account with SXC. Read more »
