About Me
- Jamie
- I'm a natural-light hobbyist photographer who especially enjoys taking a photojournalistic approach to capturing children interacting in their natural environments. I also love to help with pre-wedding photography. My equipment is a Canon Digital Rebel XT, and when needed, I edit using Photoshop and other various programs.
oooo I think this is really neat!
ReplyDeleteI like these photos. I really like how the corners are rounded.
ReplyDelete2 Things The horizontal photo is too big for the window and the right side is cut off. If you need help I can tell you how to make it fit. The B&W photo is really nice but it is almost too bright. I would make a global exposure adjustment to darken everything up just a little and I would use the exposure brush in Lightroom 2 and darken the background a little more so the couple stands out even more. On the whole this is very nice work. Keep it up.
Jeff, please help me! I open my photos at picnik.com; from there, I use their Create section to round the edges and put the text on. Then, I save them to Photobucket, and from there, I share them to Blogger. When I edit photos in Photoshop, I just size the photos there (680 for landscapes and 450 for portraits), but I haven't figured out if I can size the photos in Lightroom. I thought I had sized them in picnik (it gives you the option to size them when you save them to the computer), but when I switched to save to Photobucket, I no longer had that option. Then, I was just too lazy to open them in Photoshop last night and resize them all and upload them again. So, a couple of questions: I upload from Photobucket because the 450 and 680 size usually uploads perfectly to blogger; when I upload to blogger from my computer, blogger just makes me choose between the small, medium, and large. Suggestions? Can I size with the html code within Blogger? Can I size in Lightroom? Also, do you know if I can round the edges in Photoshop, and how? Would it be easier to work from Picasa or flickr?
ReplyDeleteI am just now experimenting with the brushes in Lightroom. What settings would you put the brush on, or would you use the defaults? And what size?

She is one of my favorites, but Ashley says he thinks she "pushes" her photos too much in contrast, sharpness, and exposure sometimes. What do you think? I'll send this to your facebook account, too, in case you don't check back.
Thanks, Jeff!
