Time spent: 1.5 hours
Total time: 31 hours
Today, I went to Matt's house and had a screenshare session with Jason. We used a program called Teamviewer so Jason could show us how he processes his wedding photos after a job.
Jason showed us using something called Photomechanic. Most of his photos were shot using natural light or one flash. He sends 600-800 of the 1151 photos to his client. Before he does his editing, he chooses his favorite pictures for his blog.
Jason uses Lightroom to catalog his pictures. Unlike photoshop, it is useful for multiple image editing or quick edits. He showed us how to use the gradient tool to recover detail. Lightroom is useful because the histogram has a function that can show warnings of where there is no detail. After Lightroom, Jason uses Photoshop. He made a bunch of droplets, which consist of actions, to make it faster to edit. Then, he uses levels or curves to make the picture brighter or darker. He even showed us how to use the liquify tool to manipulate pictures. Overall, Jason doesn't really do a lot of heavy editing.
