So everyones style of post processing is different, I'm curious to what all you guys do when your editing your photos
For me it all depends on the photo, since I am doing alot of portraits now, I use a general theme.
1. Choose a preset as a base, I bought film presets that add a nice feel to it.
2. Increase exposure as well as fill light to brighten up the image, as well as fill in any shadows that take away from the image.
3. Adjust wb as well as contrast.
4. ajdust the tone curve, as I said, I do alot of portrait work, so shadows are not what I'm looking for, so I adjust it where ever necessary, to achieve no "over cooked" highlights, as well as shadows.
5. adjust the hue of the skin and saturation of various colors.
6. add a post vignette if needed.
7. sharpen/nr.
8. adjust split toning.
9 do last minute review corrections of everything, get rid of distracting things in the image, spot correct etc.
This whole process takes about 8-10 minutes.
Whats yours look like?
