Aperature 3



I'm making sure to always brush up on my post-processing skills (Probably one of my weakest points in photography school but I'm always striving to improve). I've always considered myself a traditional type photographer; an in camera type artist sort of speak. Get it right in the camera first is what I've always been taught so that is what I know. I really like the workflow on this application. Apple has added some new tools and fixed a few things from the previous version. Photoshop CS3 or even CS4 is way too much for my appetite. It's like a buffet when all I really need is a tasty solid meal. Here's some before and after images using Aperature 3. Add a little salt, then a little pepper...wala!

WPPI


After attending the 2010 WPPI (Wedding & Portrait Photographers International) my brain still hurts from all the great information i've absorbed. I'm so inspired from all the great speakers and all the classes I attended I wish I had done this a long time ago. It's always in Las Vegas and I will remember this convention for the rest of my life! My wife attended several business classes at the convention and guess what she won me?....A CANON 50D DSLR from Gary Fong! aaaaand a free website from Livebooks! Isn't she the best?! She walked around the conference like a walking billboard with the free t-shirts,buttons with lights (the vendors loved it haha) and a flash light diffuser made by Gary Fong hanging around her neck (Its so funny she doesn't even know what it does) She told me she was going to win a camera, and she did!
