This couple wanted something different than the typical Christmas Cards. So we did a shoot today to see what we could come up with. I designed a card using the images from today as well as some images of their two Boston Terriers.


Please...C&C.

Thanks.

Nice images, and #3 / 5 are my favorites . Did you cross process / ran some action on these?

[Fureinku]

are the whitebalance off on purpose?

5 works for me

Hi Kim and Fureinku.

Yes, the WB is intentionally set this way. I have the originals that are properly exposed and all that Jazz. I processed them to look this wy.

Kim, I did do some processing on these. I also added a texture layer on some of them as well.

Love them! I am sure they are thrilled. And of course I am a sucker for boston terriers. :)

Love the shots... Their tattoo's are really cool too. I like how you captured those.

Also love the Boston Terriers... I have one :D

[DVS_WiNdz]

Great shots, I like #1 and 3

[amironsi]

i like the second card more

[trantz]

dude these are awesome. You clearly have full control of the feel and atmosphere of these, and I feel like I know these people from seeing these photos. It's refreshing to not see typical cookie-cutter lighting and colouring. WELL DONE!

I thought I was looking at some photos from a magazine advertisement. I wish I knew how to make my photos look that way... heh.

[Chris71]

These are truly amazing photos! I love the processing on these.
Would you mind sharing your steps on how to process #3.
