IntuitionParticipant
It sends you to your own facebook page or the home page if your not logged into facebook. So it will work for you camera shy, lol 🙂
IntuitionParticipantokay thanks! I had thought for some reason the white balance dropper in LR was only for what was meant to be white. That clears up a whole bunch! thanks a a lot!
IntuitionParticipantQuoted from Stef : “This image sums up your portfolio: https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc7/s720x720/577090_462345783779172_2076576549_n.jpg ”
Holy cow if I got that in my wedding pictures I’d be upset. How do you even hang that? It kind of hurts my eyes, and while it looks a little dark ( but that may be the holy cow vignette) it looks like a sweet picture with a nice look at the back of a very pretty dress. But it’s practically sideways.
IntuitionParticipantThanks stef! I appreciate it. I follow this site and another forum that reams bad photography and it’s actually taught me a lot more about how to be a better photographer then I ever thought it would.
I completely agree about my horizons -_- I seem to have this tilt all the time, I think it’s something to with my default standing/shooting I need to be more aware of. I have ( recently mind you) started getting really anal about horizons, I went on vacation to Seward Alaska and while they were all general vacation shoots ( I am decidedly NOT a nature/landscape photographer) I went through and had to fix my wonky horizons haha! I do have a nasty habit of not watching my background too. I even have a pic of a person and their dog, with a rottweiler pooping in the background. Never saw it till post haha!
White balance plagues me. I did rectify some of it with getting the colormunki and finally calibrating this monitor which helps a little, but I need to learn how to properly use my grey cards. I get to put them in the shot, but then I’m a little lost. I have lightroom and photoshop, but I primarily use Lightroom for ease of use. I get a little pissy opening things in photoshop since I can’t just pull from a catalog like lightroom if that makes sense? So any tips you can throw my way about that I’d much appreciate!
IntuitionParticipantYea, the dog shoot that was studio was my first mass undertaking. It was 13 dogs, and all were excited and happy and I wasn’t thinking to have the dog owner stand behind me, so she was off to the left. That led me to doing some funky angles to try to get them to interact with me as well, hence some of the wonky angles on the background. I do actually intend to pursue pet photography, as I love animals as well.
Focus has always been a bit of a learning curve for me, I use single point to try and train myself to pay attention to it at the moment. At least that’s the idea haha! I have the extreme pleasure of having a make up artist as a friend who pretty much goes along with everything I want to do, even sitting outside in -20 Fahrenheit standing weather haha ( she’s the model in stunning canvas) and it gives me a lot of practice with the more conceptional ideas.
The blurry shot was for class, had to ‘show movement’ it’s only in there cause I thought it was a funny story but I totally understand and agree with what you’re saying. And the selective coloring. sigh. I did a few cause I thought in the beginning that it was teh ‘in’ thing to do ( which I guess it sorta is? blech) Now I know better. I do have one selective color that Ilovelemme see if I can find it and you can tell me if it’s heinous. Here it is : http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc7/s720x720/422446_358649204158634_974599690_n.jpg
Ignore the giant honking watermark I no longer use -_-
Thank you very much for the critique I really do appreciate it
IntuitionParticipantI don’t know whether to be scared at the lack of replies or happy -_- haha
