Before & After My Photo Editing Process First Things First When I edit photos the first thing I do is lower my screen brightness. When I’m working on my iMac, I usually lower the brightness to about 50%. If I’m working on my Laptop, I lower the brightness to about 60%. Lowering your brightness helps to prevent your images from printing too dark. Basic Edits I always start with some basic photo editing. Using Adobe Camera Raw, I raise my shadows and blacks; this helps retain the photos detail when printing. Next, I adjust the sliders starting with the temperature […]

Photo Contest Entries On June 13th, 2019 I entered the following three photos in the Idaho Falls Magazine Photo Contest under the Nature and Wildlife category: I chose to enter the above photos because I LOVE IDAHO!

Even if I don’t win a prize for my photographs, I hope that those who view them will get a sense of the deep gratitude I feel for my beautiful surroundings here in Idaho.
Skills Cultivated During Digital Imaging I have gains loads of new “smarts” while taking Digital Imaging this semester, much of which have to do with how to use my SLR camera’s full potential. One of the most useful skills I’ve learned is how to use photo bracketing. The picture above (Bannack Ghost Town) was taken using the bracketing setting on my camera. A bracketed photo consist of three photos: one over-exposure, one normal exposure, and one under-exposure, then all three are blended together during post. Speaking of post, I’ve picked up some new know-how when it comes to using Adobe […]
Learning to Focus This was my first time experimenting with Macro photography. I had a lot of fun focusing on tiny areas of objects. The jar below is less than an inch high. I zoomed in on the tiny black key. In this next photo, you can see the detail in the sand so clearly: Using Water While experimenting with Macro photography, I tried to capture water droplets. I love the way the water drops look on top of this peacock feather: The yellow rose below was spritzed with a spray bottle of water. I love all the tiny water […]
I’m new to the world of Fine Art Photography but I gave it my best shot (literally). The day spent photographing Bannack Ghost Town was a beautifully overcast day. The sun would peek out every once in a while, though. Because of the overcast weather, most of the photographs were pretty saturated. Still, I added some saturation and played with the detail and color a bit in photoshop. The Hotel was my favorite place to shoot “Ghost” pictures but was bare-bones empty inside. On the contrary, the Doctors House was decorated authentically which proved for some fun fine art and […]
