Inspiration is your friend!
Friday, July 11th, 2008
Hey guys, Jeni here with the Photography Phriday post. I stink at tutorials so there won’t be any of those for you today, but I have something even better. LOTS of inspiration (and lots of linkies too!) One of my favorite things to do is check out blogs, especially professional photographers’ blogs, but just blogs in general too! This is always something I do when I’m in a rut and need some inspiration. A lot of them even have some great tutorials or free actions for your photos! Here are some of my fave bloggies:
STRICTLY PHOTOGRAPHY – I go to these looking for great ideas when taking pictures like composition, places to take photos, background and prop ideas. . . the list could go on and on!
Photos Between Friends – This is Brittney’s (yup, our Brittney!) photo blog with one of her friends. She has sooooo many great pictures and great ideas.
Brenda Acuncius Photography – I LOVE her photos!!!
Amanda Keeys Photography – Amazing and super gorgeous portraits!
Tara Whitney Photography – Some fun and unique ideas for family photos or anything really!
I could link you up forever, but I have lots more to share so let’s move on. If you really want to see more blogs like these most of these blogs have links to other photographers’ blogs. Just keep clicking away!
PHOTOGRAPHY + TIPS AND TUTORIALS – When I see a cool photo and wonder how they did it I run to these places.
Jessica Sprague’s Blog – TONS of great pictures and tutorials. Check out the Photoshop Friday Index link. HOW AWESOME IS THAT?!
Mamarazzi School – You know you’re a mamarazzi! Just ask your kids – LOL! Fantastic photos and great tips. There is also a mamarazzi forum and links to several great photography sites here.
The Legacy Lady – Kayla Lamoreaux’s blog with great photos, tips, and lots of digiscrapping tutorials and ideas too!
Photojojo – Really fun ideas for your photos!
PHOTOGRAPHY + ACTIONS – There are so many of these great sites but here are just a few I frequent.
The Pioneer Woman – I’m sure you’ve all heard of her and her hilarious, amazing, super fun, yummy, and recipe filled site; but she has actions too!!!! And lots of photos and tips. This site could go in any of the above categories, but I saved it for here because these actions are FREE and only work in PS, BUT she does have a post I just saw in her archives about using Elements to reproduce one of her actions. Just click on the Photoshop Actions tab on the right on her blog.
JUST TIPS
America At Home Top Ten – Here are some tips we could all use everyday and worth a bookmark so we don’t forget!
Well, that ought to keep you busy for a while, don’cha think?! Enjoy all the sweet bloggies – I’m off to find me some more! Have a great weekend! ~Jeni
