What do you usually do to each photo and in which order? I am mostly focusing on photos of babies and families if that helps to know what I'm looking for. Thanks so much.

tonylong ...winded More info | Apr 05, 2011 20:28 | #4 Nice shots, are they for personal enjoyment or for a client(s)? As it is, they don't need more processing, it's just up to the "look" you are after. Spend some time checking out the threads here and you'll see a lot of processing thread pop up with tons of helpful hints! Tony

I advised her to get professional shots as well, just in case

tonylong ...winded More info | Apr 05, 2011 21:51 | #6 Well, has the friend seen them yet? Like I say they don't need more processing, show them to her and she will probably be very pleased! But of course, you yourself are on an ongoing journey -- maybe you could benefit from some of the tutorials on say Lynda.com for portrait "processing"? Tony

Yes, she has seen them and she loves them. Overall I'm very happy with the shoot, but I know that I need to learn post processing if I am going to make people pay me to take their picture. I want to get a little practice on these. There are other shots that probably need more work than the two I posted. Thanks for that website. I will definitely take a look.

I am still just practicing at this point, but I'm hoping to take on actual clients when I am consistent enough in getting the shots I want. I also need to practice processing and editing. I do not know how to do much other than crop and convert to black and white. So... lots to learn.
