Thanks everyone for your input! That’s great that exporting is straight forward – I can just do what I normally do. 😅

Some photographers will pre-order a ton of blank thumbdrives that they customize with their logo/name on it, so when they deliver the photos to their clients, their clients know where that thumbdrive came from. 🙂

Yes! I was…[Read more]

Here are some more that I’ve pulled from my portfolio. 🙂

Thanks for your thoughts and critique, @bennet-family!

I like to get down low for a more unique perspective, so I think that’s what I would’ve tried here.

Yep, I can see what you mean. From memory I was perched on a rock, so I was trying to get a slightly more unique perspective by looking down…but perhaps it isn’t quite unique enough! One…[Read more]

Thanks! 🙂 Sounds like a good way to think it through, @bennett-family.

Oh! And here’s the original, un-processed imaged for those that find this sort of thing interesting. 🙂

I also contacted someone that I ‘know’ in regards to taking engagement pictures and thought I’d share the tips she shared with me in the hopes that it’ll be helpful to someone else. 🙂

Thankyou so much for this, @jamesstaddon! I’ll definitely keep these tips in mind. 🙂 The photoshoot is next weekend (as long as this winter weather isn’t too wild), so hopefully we’ll end up with some nice shots!

I was excited to find out that I’ll just be able to enter this competition age wise. 🙂 Since this is the last year I’ll be able to enter, I’m thinking about giving it a go!

So apparently I have to take a picture of something ornate… The first thing that came to mind was the inside of an ornate building. But, I need some help to brain storm…[Read more]

And, two more…

Enjoyed this assignment!

Last 2!

Ok… trying again. 😀

This was a challenging concept to capture! I’m feeling a bit jealous of that snow… brown grass doesn’t quite have the same effect. 😀 Still, I had fun going out a shooting some pictures with what I did have and digging up some old pictures from my portfolio.

What a sweet idea, @bennett-family! Just for some background as to why chose the ones I did – I feel like there is a lot of cards out there with lovely photos, but so many are similar. So, when I went through your photos I was thinking, what’s unique about these photos, what shows your own artistic flare, what makes it eye catching and card w…[Read more]

Now that’s testing the old memory. 😂 I had a quick look back in my emails. I can’t tell exactly, but I think it may have been a couple of days. I’ve noticed that they sometimes take a little while longer accepting pics etc these days, probably because they have more contributors or something. I guess it’s also a busy time of year. You cou…[Read more]

Thankyou for the tips! I didn’t realise that you could use Lightroom to process videos. Can’t wait to try it out. 🙂
