How I edit in lightroom and photoshop • tips for photographers

While I'm waiting for my pictures to download from last nights engagement session I figured I would do a little post on my processing. I have been horrible about blogging lately and I promise that I will try to do better. Thanks Jeremy for taking this pic for me :)

(I put the image into lightroom and adjusted the exposure since it was underexposed, I then adjusted the blacks and the contrast to give it some pop. Oh and I warmed it up a little since that's what I like)
Mom, I love you but I don't love that you gave me that never ending teenage acne (at least I know something will keep me young!!)

Much can be fixed with a little photoshop though! (before an image goes to print I open it in photoshop for additional editing)
(I used an MCP action (Magic skin) to soften my skin. I then merged my layers and used a clone stamp to hid all the rest of my blemishes)

Dad I love you but I don't love the dark bags you gave me under my eyes. :) Guys I love my parents and we have a great relationship no worries we joke about this kind of stuff all the time.
(I duplicated my background layer and tackled those bags with a clone stamp! I then adjusted the opacity to let back in a little bit of them bags so that I wasn't totally destroying personality)
So it went from WA to WA LA!

And NO mom, my face did NOT freeze like this!
