So, I’ve never done this on here…but I thought I’d let you in on a peek of some before and after photos. Most people don’t know that with digital cameras, the photo’s aren’t meant to come out of the camera ready to print. Even if the color and exposure is completely accurate in camera, adjustments in contrast and sharpening need to be made. That being said, I usually have to color correct my pictures, and I usually tweak the exposure, then comes the contrast and sharpening. Often I crop….and all that just to start a picture. After that…..if there are blemishes….stray hairs……those have to be fixed.
For me photoshop isn’t about making someone look different than reality, it’s about bringing out the best in the photo. So for your viewing pleasure, some before’s and afters…………
Before……
After…….
This is before…..it was shady and so the lighting was cool……..
And here is the after, increased contrast and warmed up…….
Another before…….a little bit of a pullback, you can see my giant reflector……
And after….the giant reflector cropped out and everything else tweaked….
Before………
After…….
Before…..
After…….
