    quickest most efficient workflow?

    Hi guys I recently shot a wedding and I discovered that my workflow isn't great. It's slow and unorganized. What is your workflow from a wedding please? I have Mac computer, 1tb external drive, Lightroom 3 and cs5 to create a workflow. I think folders is an issue for me. Should you always...

    presenting wedding images issue

    Great responses and I understand now. Not entirely sure how to reduce the images to 90% though.If this is the best way to do it, can I create an action that will do all 330 images and put them into a new folder ready for sending off? I know how to create an action but if you can just...

    presenting wedding images issue

    I had the impression that if you keep the resolution as is e.g. 240, then you can reduce the pixels and the quality will still remain high. If you reduce the resolution to say 150 from 240, this would indeed reduce the pixels and the file size but for prints I should imagine it would suffer...

    presenting wedding images issue

    I have just tried entering the following pixels height 3506 width 2337 which is roughly what my old canon 20d gave me (remember that this is from dimensions 5616 height and 3744 width created by the 5d mkii), and I have ended up at a file size of 4.3mb which is much more manageable. Trouble is...

    presenting wedding images issue

    Hi there, Shot a Wedding yesterday in raw with 5d mkii. Edited them now but the image files are huge and would be an issue to give them on DVD which is what I have promised. Can you lower the file sizes and give the client the photos so they are more manageable ? There are 330 at present and...

    learning flash distance from subject

    Hi there I have been practising with my canon 5d mkII and my 580EX to understand the distance you need to be from the subject to get the correct flash exposure. I have used ETTL mode with on camera flash and bounced the flash off of walls to hit my subject (a mannequin) to create some...
