Love Your Shot Contest Photo

A friend of IHF's,



Love That Shot is having a photo contest. Love Your Shot. Theme is Favorite Faces.

Well no other favorite face of mine than Grant's!

Here is my entry:



He just turned 3, so we just did his 3 year pictures. This was shot last weekend. I used my Canon T1i with my 18-55mm lens and my SigmaEF530 DG Super Flash with a Gary Fong LightSphere.

In Photoshop CS5, I used Essential Kit action Marta Like Simple-warm me! to get that warm look. I also adjusted the Curves to add depth. I finished it off with OnOne Plug In's Edging. It is a custom preset I created.

Hope you enjoy it!

Thanks! Hope I win!

Fix It Friday TIME! #73

It is time for Fix It Friday over at I Heart Faces! Here is # 73:

Original:



My Fix:

I opened in PS CS5.

I used my F12 Shortcut action to make a copy of my background.

I then used CTRL + M to open Curves.

I then adjust the Curve Down to darken the image and give it more depth.



Then I used Essential Kit's Actions (A sponsor of IHF's) , "Marta Loves Color"-"Fresh Color Pump". Then I used "Marta Loves It Simple" - "warm me!"

These are great actions! Very easy to use and work great!

Then I used OnOne Plug In to add my custom preset of Dark Black Edges 100%.

I then saved the image at a 6 for quality and uploaded.

Thanks! Email me with Questions at jcline@jwcstudios.com or catch me on IHF's.
