Correcting Color in Photoshop {and PSE}

I thought it might be fun to take a photo and work on one thing at a time, and have the tutorials build on each other, all using the same photo. I am starting out this “series” in Photoshop CS6 beta, but the steps can be done in Photoshop Elements also (or an alternate step […]

Mobile Monday: Sisters

Only one picture taken with my cell phone from last week. I was not feeling the greatest (tooth) and didn’t have my head working right for me. The one I do have to share was taken Saturday, when I had a girls’ afternoon with my two sisters. I am the middle of three girls, and […]

Hanging in There

Gear Review | Nikon 35mm f/2 D

It’s handy and wonderful but it is lacking one thing to make it really great – the ability to SAVE IT. That missing trait is actually something that Photoshop CS5 (and older versions) do have, but many […]

Mobile Monday – From iPhone to Timeline

Hello to a new week!! I hope you all had a great weekend and captured lots of precious memories either with your “big girl/big boy” cameras or your smart phones or point ‘n shoots, whatever you had on you! I wanted to share a picture I captured just this morning with my iPhone 4. I […]

Levels to the Rescue…

Pin It Yes, I am once again talking about Levels. Why? Well, first of all because I l.o.v.e. Levels and second of all because it’s a message that cannot be shared enough. Just so we are all on the same page: I start every single edit (in PSE or Photoshop) with a Levels adjustment. Levels […]
