Manipulator

Image manipulator that is. I have been working with Photoshop for a long time now. Since version 2 to be exact. I taught Photoshop at an art institute in California back when I was a starving artist. So now-a-days I put them skills to good use. I go through each and every photo taken and see what needs to be fixed. On this page, I'll show you a few examples of pixel wranglin used to either enhance a photo or have some fun. A wonderfully touching moment shared by my couple. Looks like a button was popped on her sweater. No problem- i just re-buttoned it digitally. Not every wedding is perfect. Sometimes it rains and sometimes mud gets kicked up on that pretty white dress. So, I'll go in afterwards and recreate the intricate lace that isnt soiled and place it where it needs to go and presto-chango, good as new. "What is this crap all over my dock?!" Thats what I said when I took my newlyweds to get some shots before it got fully dark on the dock behind the Mills House. It seems that someone left all this stuff all over the place. That yellow canoe was killin the shot. I went in afterwards and cleaned it up. BEFORE AFTER Sometimes I want a particular lighting effect. Something that makes the couple seem like they are enjoying a truly private moment. So I have Tara get that light right where I want it and fix it all later. BEFORE
AFTER The couples we work with like to play with guns. Big guns. Here's a canon at the Charleston Battery. In real life, the business end of these guns are sealed off. There also isnt a fuze to light. I went in later and made it right. These guys are rockin a Gatling Gun below. I added smoke, fire, sparks and empty casings falling out of the bottom of the gun. Big fun! Sometimes I like to do trippy things to certain shots. Here's a couple trippy shots. The next shot is a composite of several different images taken at different times. I wanted to put the drama into overdrive on this shot taken at her bridal portrait session. The gater was there. I added the girl later. Sometimes I take a few photos I take and make a movie poster out of it. Then there are times when I want to beat up an image to make it look like it was taken with a camera worth a fraction of the one actually used to take the photo.
