Photoshop Actions Before & After | Kubota Imaging Tools

We have received several emails from photographers inquiring about our post-processing, curious if we outsource and what Photoshop Actions we use.  Because of this, I decided it was the perfect time to do a Before & After post and divulge our editing process.

We outsource all of our RAW editing to our personal editor.  She currently isn’t accepting new clients, so to keep her from being bombarded with inquiries, I’ve decided not to list her name.  While I wish I could sing her praises to all of you, I will simply say that she has literally given me my life back.  Not only is she an amazing editor, she is crazy fast and all around pure awesome!  :)  My editor converts my RAW files to JPEG’s and I take them into Photoshop for a final edit.  I am a self-proclaimed Action Junkie and I have a ton of different sets.  One of my absolute favorites is definitely Kubota Imaging Tools!  Now, if you aren’t familiar with Kevin Kubota’s amazing actions, take my word for it, they are incredible!  There are countless variations of recipes you can create, ensuring your edits remain as original and stylish as your photography!  The timing of this post couldn’t be better- right now Kubota Imagine Tools is having a killer sale on their actions- don’t miss it!!  (Just click the link below!)

Kubota Imaging Tools is one of our fabulous sponsors for our Be Inspired Workshops and we couldn’t be more thrilled about it!  (On a side-note, we have received several emails about upcoming workshops in 2012 and are thrilled to let you know that we do have more workshops in the works!)  Want to be the first to know?  Be sure to sign-up for our Young & Free Newsletter!  Now, onto the Actions!

I chose images from three upcoming blog posts: Taylor, Rachael & Rachel.  All three girls are high school seniors, two of which are on my Senior Rep Team!  They pulled double-duty this month and took time out of their busy lives to be models for my workshops!  :)  Be on the look-out for their features very soon!  In the meantime, I hope you enjoy these teasers!  Each image took me about 1-3 minutes to edit.  I spend as little time as possible editing, my editing esthetic is simple and clean.  Under each image I have included my recipe, feel free to use them!  Happy editing!
