My blog, although I don’t see myself as a blogger but as a Photographer I will try to blog some interesting material during the weeks.
Expect at least 2 updates a week.
Today I share some images we shot during a “free style” session with Nadine.
Nadina (as usual) did all the styling and makeup herself.
For me sometimes doing a “free style” session is incredibly important, these are the kind of session where everything goes, so time to experiment with light, smoke, colors, crazy themes etc. And it’s a great way to find new techniques of course.
Today a small BTS video we shot during Photokina 2012.
Over the last few days you have seen a lot if images I took during our stay in the USA for PhotoshopWorld Vegas 2012.
Because we also added some private days I got a lot of images that I found worth sharing, but also that I put into a book for private use….. now some of you asked me if it would be possible to also get a book and I have to be honest, I just threw some images together in Lightroom4’s book module and did not take much care about layout etc. However because Blurb gives me the option to offer a book as free iPad book I decided to just open that up for you guys. So if you’re interested in seeing the images in a nice e-book form feel free to surf to : http://store.blurb.com/ebooks/326992-los-angeles-and-vegas-2012 and download it for your iPad.
Next time I will take some more care about layout and stories, got myself a challenge there I guess 🙂
During seminars and workshops a lot of the students ask me “why did you choose Lightroom and switched from Aperture”, or “I will not use Lr because CaptureNX is much better for my Nikon files”, or “Capture One is better than Lr so why Lr” etc. the list goes on and on and on……
Images in this blogpost are from google search, so not my own.
Well today my opinion on this.
When I started out with digital photography I wanted the best image quality possible…. well ok….. it stopped there, first of all to be able to work with the RAW files was limiting my options like crazy, actually only Photoshop was a valid option, maybe bridge and I found a cool program later on called ACDsee which worked pretty well. Over the years MUCH has changed, we now have a choose of RAW convertors that will make your head spin, the ones I use(d) are Lightroom, Capture One, DxO and Aperture to name just the big ones. I experimented with Silkypix for a while for my Fuji’s but was glad that Lr started with support for those because somehow the workflow was just something I could not get used to (or wanted).
