Atlanta Wedding Photography Blog-Sublime Photography

Hey everyone! I have a whole new blog! Here is the new link. Don’t forget to update your bookmarks.

Pretty much any photographer sells, includes, or talks about digital negatives. So, what exactly is a digital negative anyway and why do I want one? First, a digital negative can be either a file in DNG format or the file that comes straight out of the camera. In my case, I sell the high-resolution jpeg file that comes out of the camera. The best reason to buy these files is to have a copy of your own. You can burn extra copies, give them to your parents, keep in a safety deposit box, so you can always have your files.

But what kind of photographer would I be if I told you to keep your images on your computer, never to be seen again? Photographs are meant to be displayed, shared, and loved. This is why when you order a print from me, you get a little more than the raw image file. The image goes through post production, where I punch up the color, increase contrast, and add a touch of sharpening. These custom prints resemble the images you see here on the blog. Don’t get me wrong, I am a huge believer in less is more and I not a fan of over-retouched images. I just like to add just a little punch of pizazz to the image. I posted an example of a retouched and untouched image below. As you can see, the results are subtle but really add that extra pop. Here is an example from Ashley and Jeffrey’s session. The first image is straight out of the camera. The second is after adding a little extra spice.     

I can’t get enough of these guys. It’s one of my guilty pleasures. And no, I would not stay in any of the places that Jason and Grant investigate. 

I just wanted to give a shout out to one of my very best friends, Julie, who was married last weekend in an intimate ceremony at her parent’s home. I am beyond thrilled that she has found a great guy and wish them all the best.

Here is just a little something I have found super useful for helping me keep up with my personal calendar and I thought I would share it with you. It is a plugin for the Firefox browser called Reminderfox. It is so easy to use and has really made my life easier. It is free too. Can’t beat that.
