Video: Introduction to Photoshop Color Lookup Tables
I won't lie... I'm a Lightroom preset junkie. But I've been playing with Photoshop's Color Lookup Table adjustment for a while now, and I'm really diggin' the results. I think, as photographers, we all go through different changes and moods when it comes to our...
Photo Makeover – Portrait with a Complex Selection (Episode 4)
Hi everyone. Here's the latest Photo Makeover video (Episode 4). This time around I worked on a cute portrait of a young child submitted by Bengt Cederman. I used the selection tools to select the background, and then jumped in to Photoshop to blur it a bit and add...
Photo Makeover – Landscape with Challenging Light (Episode 3)
It's been a while since I've done a Photo Makeover, but it's back! This time around there's only 1 photo, but I like to keep my videos on the short side. It's really fun for me to look through your photos and then creating the video so I hope you enjoy! This time...

A New Lightroom CC Update is Available
Hi all. Adobe released a Lightroom update last week. I'm a little old school sometimes. I usually don't download updates for at least a few days after, which is why I didn't post about this sooner. I've been burned by Apple iOS updates on my iphone, so I'm always a...
A Cool Trick For Photoshop’s Patch Tool
