Portrait Photography Editing Tips
froknowsphoto.com Everybody needs to do this yet we forget it can be done in Lightroom! I go over my methods for sharpening and enhancing the eyes as well as softening the skin. Negative clarity is the key to softening the skin while lightening the iris (colored part!) helps to enhance the eye. Something I did forget to mention is you can also lighten the sclera (whitish, opaque part of the eye). Do not overdue it!!! Yes you want to make your portraits look great but don’t go overboard and make the image look ‘shopped’. I prefer to have photographs looking real, not images that show off my Lightroom/Photoshop prowess. froknowsphoto.com

"Awesome video presentation.
I have learnt so much more after looking through this on the weekend. The tip about pushing blacks and fill light in the Basic Module was worth the price alone. My images of a recent trip to the Australian Outback are popping and punching with delight!
Thanks Michael and Jeff – I really appreciate you taking the considerable time to share your in-depth knowledge and insights." -
