Wedding Photography: Post Processing Special Effects

The following images are a cross section of images I shot over the years. Each image went through a special effects process using Adobe Photoshop CS4. It is not part of my normal post process edits after I shoot a Wedding or an Engagement session, nor do I include them on any of my packages. However, clients and guests can order full color or black and white via my online gallery.  Once in a while, I enjoy  applying these effects to see what the final output will look like, and what mood it presents.

I would love to know what you think. Please do leave me some feedback by leaving comments below this post.

The following images are in no special order:

Thank you Leslie. Its a “cocktail” of actions between Kubota Image Tools and Get Totally Rad’s. I made a lot of experimentation, and the images above are many of what I thought suited my taste.
