Editing Portraits in Lightroom: What You Absolutely Must Know
Editing portraits in Adobe Lightroom is both rewarding and fun; Lightroom is fundamentally different to other editing software in that it involves a totally non-destructive workflow. This means that when you digitally poke someone in the face to make an edit in Lightroom, the actual photo file is never altered. Instead, as...

Cats – A selection of images from our #ThursdayTheme
You guys love your cats! We’ve already seen your dogs so for last week’s #ThursdayTheme we asked to see your stunning cats – thank you to everyone who shared an image with us.
We chose this little beauty to be our #FridayFoto. It was lovingly captured by Jodie Waite.
Here’s what Julie had to say about Jodie’s’s image:
“A cat with such elegance and good looks deserves to be photographed in ways that showcase this. And that’s exactly what Jodie has managed to do.
I love that she is looking off to the side so that we can see that gorgeous long neck and the break in the pattern under her chin.
She has been beautifully lit. I also absolutely love the warm golden tones in this image. Everything in the image marries together beautifully for a rich, regal feel.
It’s a work of art Jodie – thank you so much for sharing it with us!”

8 Easy Steps To Photographing Fireworks
Fireworks may be spectacular to watch, but try to photograph them without the right gear and without the proper techniques, the photographs are anything but dazzling. Photographing fireworks—essentially streaks of light that are moving in the dark—isn’t an easy task, often resulting in blurry shots and inaccurate exposures. So how...

Freckles – A selection of images from our #ThursdayTheme
We gave you two weeks to hit us with your ‘freckles’ so be warned you are about to see some of the most charming images you will have ever seen! My daughter has freckles and I always tell her “a face without freckles is like the sky without stars”.
#FridayFoto was almost impossible but we chose this beauty by Victoria West!
Here’s what Julie had to say about Victoria’s’s image:
“What a great close-up portrait of a really beautiful boy.
The lighting you’ve chosen and the amazing black and white conversion you’ve done really enhance the freckles and show them in all their glory. You can tell this image is taken with that purpose.
I love the expression. It’s such a soulful, subtle smile but it goes right up into the eyes which have gorgeous catchlights.
Stunning portrait Victoria – thank you!”
