isavedlatin54 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 the search function yielded no results. Anyone here a photographer like myself? professional/amateur/semi pro? share your work maybe? In 2008 I graduated from The New England School of Photography. My buddies band just hired me to document their recording process. these are some of my favorites from last night when they were tracking guitars and bass. henster311 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abovetheearth Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 very crisp, nice lighting. most b/w arent done correctly and look like ass. just bounce a speedlite? i always shoot RAW and over expose. are they 'dapping' in the first pic? or passing along 'something'?

abovetheearth Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I've been using photoshop for 13+ years. I have created hundreds of actions. Recently got Lightroom 3. Not really sure yet a huge difference yet, but again, still discovering LR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futures Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 The entire process of Lightroom is backwards compared to Photoshop. The biggest differences you don't even see happening, such as the fact that Lightroom is completely lossless. Photoshop degrades the quality of the image each time you open it and work on it. In Lightroom, you are merely working on a digital copy (also a thumbnail preview) of your original RAW file. No quality loss. As far as features, Lightroom 4 has what I believe to be the biggest jump compared to Photoshop. Adobe has since released LR5, but I haven't used it yet. Everybody's workflow is different. For me, I load all of my RAW files onto my external harddrive which also houses my LR catalog, then I import to LR, do all of my base/foundation editing using plug ins, then I export a copy of my edits and from there work on the images in Photoshop for more detail editing.

That's awesome, i love his stuff. I just got a Ricoh GR V that i have been playing with as a backup to my Canon. I have to say that for a point and shoot, it gets some nice results. 51/365 by JacobMckinley, on Flickr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isavedlatin54 Posted July 18, 2013 Author Share Posted July 18, 2013 so im thinking about doing a small photo book after documenting this whole recording process with my buddies band. i honestly think it would sell pretty well at shows here in austin. its going to be like a 4 month project. I think im going to use the money they are paying me to fund it. im also doing video for them. now ive never actually done video editing on a large scale, when I was in school DSLR's didnt have the capability of shooting video so ive had to learn everything on my own. what I love about doing videos for bands is that it can look sloppy and still come out ok. also having one hand and attempting to focus WHILE shooting is a bitch. this was my first result. EDIT: this sint my first video for them. i did their tour videos a few years ago. but this is my first with a DSLR. henster311 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
