Online video classes to help you with flash photography
This video tutorial series was created in conjunction with Craftsy. The online classroom has a platform where anyone who is subscribed can ask questions. So it is an interactive method, and not just a static video-only class. There is also no time limit on this, so you can watch it anywhere, any time.

Wedding photography – online video tutorials!
Two events during a wedding day where the photographer can stamp their style, is with the romantic portrait session and the formal family photo session. These two video tutorial classes cover all aspects of these topics. Specifically, the family photo session is where newer photographers often have difficulty and things can slide out from under their control. This class will give you the info you need to help you sail smoothly during this part of the wedding.

Photoshop action – Secret Sauce
In finessing an image, I rely on certain Photoshop plug-ins for retouching portraits, but there are also numerous well-known Photoshop tricks that I rely on. These vary, depending on what needs to be done with an image – sometimes lips need to be a shade darker, or eyes a touch lighter. It might be selective sharpening. Or a reduction in red tones. Or blue tones. It varies.
Tthe actual “secret sauce” that I use may very well differ from image to image, I rely on a few steady techniques. For example, the portrait at the top which is a favorite image of mine. While I think the lighting is great, especially considering it is all done with a single on-camera bounced flash. However, it looks even better with some selective sweetening of the image in Photoshop.
