When I am not tinkering with computers and code, I am taking pictures trying to keep up with my daily photo, or riding my bike, or playing with the dogs.

Photo Set – Our Neighbors

A few weeks ago, if the green foliage didn’t give it away, I took some family portraits for our neighbors. I haven’t had all the time in the world the last few weeks with house projects, work, and extracurricular activities to finish editing.

And to be honest, at first I thought everything was out of focus and the color was terrible. All the photos originally came out looking very pale because of the green background. So I had some apprehension digging in and seeing what mistakes I made.

But after further inspection, I found some really great photos. It was just the color and cropping that needed tweaking. And I shot everything in RAW, so it was really easy to go back and change the temperature and exposure of the photos.

I guess the hardest part was working with a 2 and 3 year old. Man, they keep you on your toes.

    Nice work, they came out looking great. What toolset and workflow are you using to go from RAW to the final images?

    Thanks. I just used PS RAW converter. I was able to tweak the temperature and exposure of the photo, then I brought it into PS to do cropping and fixes.
