This is what most of my day consists of

---

Have you ever wondered what an hour and a half of photo editing looks like when you compress it into about two minutes?

To be honest, I haven't, but I really want to get into this vlogging thing, and making videos is fun, so today I looked up how to do screen capture and I thought I might as well give it a shot!

This is my first ever "here's me editing photos!" video, and it's just some work I was doing on this shoot today. I did the shoot quite a while ago but it was really just a fun little side project. The model was visiting from India and contacted me about maybe doing something creative so we met up and did a little editorial style shoot.

It's taken me ages to get to the photos because when you have paying clients waiting for their images you have to put those in priority, but today I had some free time after finishing up a wedding so I thought I would chip away a little bit on this fun (free) project.

You can see a bit of my editing style in the video, but I know it goes pretty fast. I use lightroom for 99% of my editing most of the time, but on shoots like this I might break into photoshop as well. Some time I'm going to make a little video detailing how I build my presets for lightroom, since I have been doing that lately. At one point in the video you can even see me create a preset, though it's not from scratch, but rather an "evolution" of a black and white preset I use all the time but decided to tweak a bit.

I go back and forth between photos and the develop and library modules quite a bit, and that is because I shoot with two different camera models (a nikon d750 and a fuji x-t2) so I need to check which is which periodically to make sure I'm applying colors correctly.

Anyhow, if you have any questions at all or would like to see a certain video in the future about photos or editing, just let me know and I'll see if I can put it together!

Hope you enjoyed this video :)
