Photo Tips and Video Tutorials

Welcome to the new photo tips and video tutorials section of ATP devoted to explaining how a photo was taken and edited to get the end result using video tutorials.

Sometimes I look at a photograph and wonder how it was taken. It doesn't have to be a masterpiece, just something that catches my eye and makes me wonder if I could re-create it or better still, improve on it.

So, based on that, I will periodically add new images here with a detailed description of the camera settings, lighting, composition etc, and also explain what was done in Photoshop to accomplish the end result.

Please note that I will include both good and bad images hoping to teach you not to erase an image until you have run it through Photoshop at least once!

Bookmark this page and come back often as we aim to continually add new tips and video tutorials.

Tip 1 - Subtle Spot Colouring.

This is an old trick used by many digital photographers but is still relatively unknown amongst the buying public. It is good to learn as I still get many requests from Brides asking for this on some of their shots. Just don't overdo it and try to make it look good. Click either image to see full tutorial!
