This Editing Blog Post will be done with a recent picture from Amy’s Maternity Session. This specific photo I made for the Totally Rad Photoshop Actions and Plugins website to show the power of using their actions correctly (combining them, making adjustments, etc.)…all actions were added AFTER the original edit of clearing up distractions in the photos, whitening the eyes, etc. All actions and recipes are below the photo…enjoy!
