Look at all those Infrared images and how the processing can be done. Pic Nix the new app that you could use to laugh out loud with friends or family. Then the ProtraitPro that gets the preset just right every time.

While each person may have different processing details, this one seems to be fairly easy and accessible. Starting off with Lightroom and then transferring the image to Photoshop CC to finish the editing.

Follow someone on Instagram that posts nothing but the same stuff over and over. Or generally you and your friends want to find out where you rank on Pic Nix? Read more about the app that pokes fun at 'too many pictures of food' or 'enough with cats'.

PortraitPro:

Portraits are treated in the same textile point. But using a preset will cut your time not in half but down to a few mere minutes at a time for each head shot.

Pick or choose which you want to go through first, an app that pokes fun at people or get your presets functioning and well in order. But definitely give that Infrared Processing a few glances over and decide for yourself if you wouldn't want to make a few images standout. Come back at the end of each week for more information.

How many times have you taken a photo and not noticed something unwanted in the frame? Maybe a tree branch that appears as if it’s coming from someone’s head, or someone stepped into the frame who wasn’t meant to be there, or perhaps a set piece out of place, we’ve been there.

We all have those friends. The ones that post ridiculous amounts of the most cliché Instagram photos. If only there was a way you could somehow point this out to them, anonymously and with a healthy does of passive aggression.

It’s been a while since we’ve talked about our love for one of the best photo tools on the market, Lightroom. We’re going to share some of our favorite things about it that knocks our socks off and...

From the creation of this photo I used both Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Photoshop.

Once InsaApple wants to usurp Facebook's Instagram-built photo sharing dominance with its new program, PhotoKit.

One problem almost all portrait photographers are going to run into at one point or another is skin redness. We're human, there's blood flowing through our faces, it's inevitable and even natural.

The team behind the photo narrative platform Exposure just released a brilliant little app called Golden Hour. Bringing their philosophy of doing one thing well to iOS, Golden Hour is an extremely minimal, beautifully designed app that alerts photographers when the most sought-after time of day is upon them. 

I recently had the opportunity to play with an infrared-converted camera, thanks to the folks over at LensRentals.com, and had a lot of fun photographing my dog at an expansive dog park just outside of Portland, Oregon. I ended up with some really great images, and wanted to share my start-to-finish processing steps with one of the photos to show some of the basics on how to process infrared images.

Following in the footsteps of the crowd-sourced transit app Uber and others like it, a new iOS and Android app called Picquest is bringing the same sort of on-demand location-based service to potential photography clients.
