    What is your favorite light modifier?

    I only have a Westcott umbrella and Rapidbox. I'll have to say I enjoy the Rapidbox the most. I've been considering getting a smaller softbox like the Lastolite Ezybox for quick oustide shots. Also considering getting a 7 ft umbrella or the Westcott 50 inch softbox. What light modifiers do...

    Is This Achievable in Photoshop?

    Here is quick try using layers and PS...not sure what you are wanting the background like. Keep getting the weird halo effect, I'm guessing because of the low quality file we are trying this off of.

    Is This Achievable in Photoshop?

    Not sure if this is what you are looking for? Did this in LR, used radial filter to highlight her face and darken everything else. Then pumped up the pink colors using HSL adjustments focusing just on the hair. Then added slight vignette and then used the dehaze slider to adjust slightly...

    $1000 to spend....what to get?

    Here is one of the pics I recently took I think it might have just been the low light situation and the fact I didn't really have the ISO bumped up to much. Pretty sure I'm leaning toward the 70-200 to help with portraits, etc. Was kinda wanting the 24-70 for good walking around lens...
