Editing & Workflow in Photography

Editing is historic, the tools just change

Editing photographs is not a modern invention; it has deep roots in the history of photography. In the days of film, photographers would spend countless hours in the darkroom, adjusting exposure, contrast, and other elements to perfect their images.

Today, digital editing has taken over, offering an expansive suite of tools that enable even more intricate and creative enhancements. This historical context underscores the importance and legitimacy of photo editing as an integral part of the photographic process.

"Best workshop I have ever taken. Vicki went above and beyond my expectations. She provided excellent, personalized instruction, based on a customized workshop design.

She also shared a LOT of great insights based on helping me to assess my own style, taking me out to shoot in the kinds of locations suited to my needs, and then providing interactive coaching and feedback.

As a result of taking her workshop, I am going to become a much better photographer. Even before the course was done, I had already made significant improvements. I highly recommend her services." -Darren Olson, June 25th
