- I think that letting go of self doubt is seitohmng we ALL struggle with. As someone who is just starting out in the industry I think the intimidation is the worst. But i have to say that after listening and learning from Jasmine, I am a brand new person and it seems that you are too. Being involved and having people hold you accountable is really awesome! Thanks to her, I am not afraid to put it out there either and before her, I would have never even had the courage to post on YOUR blog! Thanks for sharing

Thanks for the tips! I use tripod so much, and it’s important if you want to shoot in 100 iso ;D

OH, and guess what, Adobe Lightroom 4 was just released, do you think you’d try that out before upgrading your photoshop software? If I had to choose between Elements and Lightroom, it would be Lightroom, but we also use photoshop for each post, I do wish both were merge of some sort, this way we don’t need to run two programs, Post Processing Utopia “wink” = )

I shoot in both, raw and JPEG, but it depends, sometimes I use/edit the raw image and other times I use the JPEG with the effects intact, I do like having control using raw though = )

Good tips. My impression is that because Lightroom and Photoshop both share the Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) engine, that when doing raw conversions, both work the same way (you can also open up JPEGs in ACR, but if you can shoot in Raw, IMO you should). At least I’m currently using a version of Photoshop that’s several years old and its ACR converted has the same tools as Lightroom 3 (although Lightroom has some other functionality). I’m going to upgrade one more time to Photoshop when the new version is available, but going forward I’m going to be using Lightroom. Photoshop is great if you need to do heavy duty editing at the pixel level, but I rarely need to do that – it’s mainly exposure tweaks, and for that Lightroom is great, and significantly cheaper. Anyway, good post – thanks.

I often just go about changing them till I like them! That’s why my photographs are never stable! I always love your photography! Am constantly jealous of it!
