I am often asked about the processing that I do on my images after a photo session. I have tried to develop a brand and a style that holds true to the idea that “less is better”. In my opinion, the less processing that I do to an image, the better it is, the more natural it looks, and the more pleasing it is to me. Over the last 4 years, I have learned how to master capturing exactly what I want to in my camera so that after a session, there is very little left to do. I have learned how to find the right light, determine proper exposure, compose for the crop that I want, gain a super fast shutter speed which produces super sharp images, and do the most that I can on the front end to ensure the image is exactly what I wanted. I typically just do a little color boosting or sharpening for web on most of my images and that’s it.
Here are a few examples from 2011 sessions…

I love what you did to the last picture! I would be thrilled if I could figure out how to do that. Thanks for this post.
