Flattering portrait angles – Perspective and distortion

Published on Nov 2, 2012

** Please check out my Private Bodies nude photography book on Kickstarter: http://bit.ly/Privatebodies - Featuring Tina!

Avoid shooting from too high or too low an angle to avoid unflattering distortion.

Creating a Mood Shot in Lightroom and/or ACR

Uploaded on Aug 31, 2011

Time for another Ordinary to Extraordinary Lightroom/ACR RAW edit. While we will be using Lightroom for this tutorial, keep in mind that you can use Adobe Camera Raw in exactly the same way. All the tools are the same, it simply has a different layout.

In this Lightroom tutorial, we will be taking a very average shot of a bride in front of a window and cleaning up all of the extra background junk. We will produce this shot to be a mood shot, meaning it will be very warm. We will also create a black and white version as well.

Enjoy!

How to Develop High Key Images

Uploaded on Aug 2, 2011

Post production is such a large part of the artistry behind the photographic process. While I am always telling photographers to “Get it Right in Camera” knowing post production, and having a vision for your final product, will help you to create shots when you may not have the time and tools needed to get the shot perfect in camera.

In this Lightroom video tutorial, I am going to show you how to create a clean high key backlit image from a simple RAW file that was shot over an unclean background. Prior to editing the image, we will briefly discuss some camera settings that you will need to use in order to achieve this type of shot and effect in post production.

Enjoy!

Enjoy the Lightroom tutorial. Once you try out this technique on your own, be sure to upload your photos to the comments on this article, or to our Facebook page so we can see how you put these techniques into action!
