Brisbane Photographer || Before and after photoshop

So I know I said I would start these in 2011 but being on holidays and my kids being in the mood for photos, I still haven't put the camera down like I said I would!

I don't really do too much to my images I am still using the old original Photoshop 7, I was lucky enough to receive cs3 from a Photographer friend, but I have stayed in my comfort zone of ps7. 2011 will see me trying to learn a few more tips and tricks to enhance images for my clients, when I take the leap to learn CS3 which I have been told is fairly simple, just a few more options and capabilities to make the process faster!

here's a quick one of my son, my eldest son decided to style his little brothers hair and I had to get a few quick snap shots before we got into the car!!

The one below I used the gradient map to convert to black and white, there are many other versions and ways to do this but I find this one works well for me :)
