HE & SHE: PART DEUX
This is part two of our deluxe bout of He & She goodness. (Part One lives here.)
Today, it’s all about the post processing!
TRA: Describe your wedding workflow for us. Who does what, and in what order?
He & She: After a wedding, Erin goes through and
edits down the photographs in Lightroom. Once everything has been
edited, I start on the album design while she pulls the “favorites”
into Photoshop and adds some Totally Rad Actions love.
TRA: Totally Rad Actions! How divine! Any favorites?
He & She: We have our
cocktail of favorite actions that we use on nearly every picture
(i.e. Boutwell Magic Glasses, Get Faded Winter & Autumn, Pool
Party, and Flare-up [golden & faded]).
TRA: Tell us a bit about your post-processing philosophy, won’t you please?
He & She: Post processing is hugely important.
Taking a well-composed photograph is only part of the process. We
have a fun and funky style and we want to make sure that comes
through with our editing. We typically will warm up our photographs
and add a bit of vintage flare, but definitely try to avoid losing
the imagery in a muddy mess of effects. Actions (like the fantastical
Totally Rad Actions) are awesome tools to enhance and help define a
picture as your own!
TRA: Well said. Now show us some post-processing recipes!
