  MR. SHARP For photographers, Glamour

May 1st, 2009

Today I will show you how I make my photographs  more sharp. Maybe it can be helpful for some of my readers…..At least I hope…….

This is may second finished photograph from last photo shoot with Yulya:

yulya2.jpg

See how this  photo looks with out sharp step (a) and with sharp (b)

Below I will  try to  describe  how I did it.

lessons.jpg

1. Open your ready photograph.

2. Create copy of this image. Make it active in a tool bar.

1step.jpg

3. Go to Filter-other-High Pass

2step.jpg

3step.jpg

4.  Ok. then you go to Layers effects  and choose “Overlay” 

4step.jpg

5. Last step- you play with “Opacity” and decide which sharp level is perfect for your image .

5step.jpg

It it is very simple lesson and it works for me :-)

If you have any questions, I will be glad to help you!

  OLIVIA::FASHION BRIDAL SHOOT Bridal portrait, Glamour

April 22nd, 2009

I absolutely sure that most of the brides want to get photographs which reflects  their love story, beauty of feelings, expressions and uniqueness ….And  this is exactly what I love about wedding photography- to capture love, beauty, emotions and a little spice..
Today’s wedding photography is completely different compare to what it was 10 years ago…
We have more freedom to express our vision and ideas creating beautiful photographs of this magnificent day.
From “Engagement” to a “Trash the dress session” – using photographs we can tell a magical story of Love.
And I just love it!!! I think we all agree that every girl at least ones in the life imagined herself being a cover girl, do we?
And, sessions like “Trash the dress” and “Bridal portrait” for girls who do not want to keep forever their wedding dresses in the closet ….For girls who  want to use the dress to tell more, to show more, and to keep more!
Why I write this? Because the wedding season starts …because I love my brides and I am always trying to come up with different ideas not to miss an opportunity to organize our shoot and to get fashion, stylish, fresh and unique photographs!
As I promised, here are my fav from session:

Team:

Photography- I am :-)

Bride- Olivia

Make up- Anna

And big “thank you” to Scott  (the owner of “Chow chocolat”) for amazing coffee and chocolates :-)   He was soo kind to give us permission to move furniture  to create best shot :-)

  LADIES BY CORDELL CORDARO Glamour, Photo Art work, Photo shoots

April 13th, 2009

       I am very excited to finally present the first image from our Project. In fact, I am ready to announce its official name: “Ladies by Cordell Cordaro”.  Through Cordell’s unique vision we discovered the whole new aspect of visualization of feminine nature.
       Cordell Cordaro’s canvases are an incredible mix of vibrant colors, emotions and beauty. Characters in his paintings always look so joyful and charismatic. When Anna first told me about this talented artist and his amazing work, I tried to draw images of the way he portraits ladies in    my imagination. Then we went to his website to browse through his work and I remember  feeling overwhelmed. It was like, wow, I love every single painting!

       Later on, Anna and I were discussing our plans for future projects over a cup of coffee (as usual) and somehow we both thought that it would be really interesting to try and transform Cordell’s paintings into photography.

       The next step was to get in touch with the artist and find out what he thinks about our idea. We thought we should get permission from a master to use his art work. And we got it! We were so excited to hear back from Cordell and became even more inspired by his interest and words of encouragement.

       The process of getting ready for the shoots was exciting and quite extensive: we casted the models, looking for girls who not only had distinctive and unique features but also were able to convey different emotions and moods; we sketched and created outfits; we bought fake nails, wigs and feathers… anything that could help us recreate “the ladies from the paintings”. Believe me, it was so much fun! Now when the first image is finalized I could say it was worth every effort! Feel free to let me know what you think of it! More to come…

       Credits:

       Inspiration: Cordell Cordaro 

       Original idea, development, casting: Anna and myself

       Styling: Anna and myself

       Makeup: Anna Malskaya

       Models: Shannon Kramp, Kelleth

       Special thanks to Marina  for letting us use her home  studio in Toronto

  HIGHLIGHT OF THE DAY Glamour, Photo shoots

April 6th, 2009

I am in my office surrounded with mountains of napkins and bottles with mixture…my nose is running and I lost my voice. What can be better in the beginning of the spring ?!Tons of e-mails do not allow me even go and relax in  bed. I am not depressed but I hate to get a cold…especially in spring…
Upcoming season promises A LOT OF amazing photo shoots and these thoughts make me feel very excited.
Yesterday I made one more steps towards to creating our “***”project. I will share one more teaser and I promise that next time I will post whole story and photograph.

Feel free to send me a message with any comments or questions! I’d love to hear from all of you.
