I've known and used actions in Photoshop before, but I have shied away from the more "edgy" styles since it's not my preferred look. But Yesterday I met my sister-in-law's family up at Sundance to do some holiday photos for them and as she was doing an emergency diaper change, I was doing some test shots and figuring out light on her husband, Jordan. I came home and played around with this a bit and found a really cool action that my favorite Matt Kloskowsky (my secret crush from Photoshop World and Scott Kelby celeb) has made as a Lightroom preset. I like the real harsh look and desaturated skin tones. But I had to find just the right photo to try it. Thanks, Jo!
Other than the presets, these shots were straight out of camera. This isn't the same preset as above, but is still desaturated on the skin-tones. I don't hate it but I think that's because I like the subject matter so much! Isn't little Miss "E" adorable? I love to "shoot" her and the camera loves her mom and dad, too!
So what do you think? Do you like this preset? Or do you prefer truer, less desaturated skin tones? what about the edgy one of Jordan? Give me your opinion!
