Thanks again to the Anderson family for letting me practice with their family portraits. I’m trying a slightly different work flow. I had been posting low resolution proofs online for viewing. This time, I gave the Anderson of DVD of the full resolution of the photos with minor color correction and cropping. This should allow them to better decide which pictures they’d like me to touch up further since you miss some things in the low res versions. I did forget to give her examples of different color treatments that I have though. So, here is this post on that.
Chris/Monica, These are just some of the color schemes that I have. Let me know if there is something else you’ve seen or that you know of and I’ll see if I can find it or do it myself. These are fairly easy to apply. So, I can apply color treatments across any of the photos you want on top of the other edits.
Note: For those interested in the color treatments, these are all Lightroom presets either from the standard set that comes with Lightroom or that I pull off of lightroomkillertips.com.
The portrait that you liked of the Cook family with the sun behind them was actually done with “Hawaii Five-O (Medium)”. Too bad we didn’t have enough sun out for the backlighting you wanted. But here is an example with the color treatment on the ones we tried with the overcast sky in the background.
I like this last one. Hopefully, this gives you some ideas. This is all practice for me, and appreciate your family’s time and help. So, let me know if there are any questions or anything else I can do to help. It’s all fun for me. Thanks again!
