wow, and these were processed on iPhone Photoshop Express with the skin smoothing and blur action set installed? :P

Haha, obviously they were processed Norm. We limited all the edits to things that can be done in a basic 3rd party editor, like Photoshop Elements.

Processing is a part of photography, it has been with film, and still is now. I would like to see the professional that doesn’t process their images.

Nice. Ultimately it’s the final image that counts of course and these look great. I certainly don’t consider it “cheating” to use post process.

I’ve found with the iPhone that with enough light you can achieve pretty nice results. Low light unfortunately is pretty unforgiving with the iPhone. And it’s nearly impossible to process it away.

Thanks Kevin,

Yeah, the iPhone in low light is terrible. But, for $300 – $400 bucks the S95, G11s and that class of point and shoots actually do a great job with low light. Only reason we used the iPhone is cause its kinda the crappiest camera you can get, worse than $100 point and shoots.

We did some cool hot lighting shots with the G11, and with a little bit of post, they looked awesome.

LOL – I my Droid does that…

forgot to include the Mac, PS, and processing time in the equipment list.

how about the “SOOC” shots side by side?

Great shots, this really shows that its not the equipment but the ability to use light that counts. Great work. I wonder how this works our with night shots.

amazing stuff ..

great video but what I really liked was the canvas among al the photo’s in the beginning that said: “Where words fail our imagery speaks”.
Got any bigger (more detailed) shot of that perhaps?

Nice. I’ve been wanting to do something like this for ages but was never going to get around to it :) The only thing I think you should have added was how you got from the final unedited image to the post-processed one. I’m sure a lot of people were feeling a bit lost there…
