An Editied Photo from Another Photographer

I have been looking for different blog challenges to get more experience with my photograhy and came across this editing challenge at http://www.alexbeadonphotography.com/blog/2010/12/20/video-post-edit-this-photo-74-edits-of-1-photo/

The challenge was over but I asked if I could use his photo and my edit on my blog and the anwser was yes!

This is the photo this photographer took.

BEFORE

This is what I did with the photo

AFTER

I used the same layer I used on the "blue christmas" ornament photo I posted earlier. Also did other basic editing things including, noise reduction, sharpening, blemish removal, different crop. levels in brightnes and contrast. I even gave her a little bit of a tan!

I have done this with other photograhers photos just for practice since I don't get an oppurtunity to do portraits that often.

If anyone has a photo you would like me to edit, e-mail me debapaka@aol.com

I was really happy when the photographer commented on this post! ♥read comment▼

WELCOME

Hello, glad you could find the time to visit! The Clicks Of My Shutter welcomes you to a photo journal of things happening around me, places I go, sometime just to take photos. I am an amature photographer who likes taking photos more than people like looking at them!! Most of the photos can be viewed larger, I keep them pretty small for easier uploading.

~ What To Wear ~

I found this on the Web and thought it was usefull! Photographers shooting a traditional family portrait will suggest that members wear a uniform color that the entire clan feels comfortable in. The safest colors are solid muted tones that don't distract from a person's face. Suggested color "dos" include: •Brown •Blue •Rust •Burgundy •Mocha •Hunter green •Gold Conversely, there are a number of colors that you shouldn't sport on family picture day. Some color "don'ts" include: •Purple •All neon or fluorescent colors •Bright red •Bright green •Gray In addition, individuals with fair skin should avoid wearing flesh-tones, such as: •Beige •Tan •Peach •Pink •Bright white •Yellow •Rose •Apricot Black is a controversial color in the world of family portraits. Some photographers recommend wearing black during formal shoots, though most pro shooters tell their clients to avoid wearing black in family portraits because the color may cause lighting issues. Extreme contrasts are to be avoided at all costs during photo shoots, especially when multiple subjects are involved. You're better off sticking with neutral colors that will accentuate your natural features.
