POTD at Shutterbugs
Here's a fun one for me. It's not that usual that I get a POTD of my own kids! Part of it is that I don't do "real" sessions for my kids like I should. But, on Tuesday, I got a whim to buy some fish for them. It was spring break. It was yucky outside. And we needed something to do. So, here's the shot. And it's a Photo of the Day today at shutterbugs.biz.

Just wanted to say that I think all of you ladies are extremely talented! I've been following you for a while and I wish I could go on some of those amazing trips you all do together!! Maybe some day I'll be as talented! So I love all of your photos! My questions.. for example this photo.... are you using Photoshop to do the white backgrounds? I use another editor... but if I try and do the background different.. the inital picture (ie. subject) seems choppy around the edges. (from where I outlined it) I do have photoshop... however I am overwhelmed by it.. so I stuck with my good old Microsoft digital imaging. I need to get on the ball... just don't have the time and teacher! Thanks ladies!
Hi Stephanie, thanks so much for your kind words about us. It's great to hear from you, so thanks for asking a question!
I use white vinyl for my white background, but you could get the same effect from white seamless paper. I light the background so it's over-exposed, so it photographs as true white. All of my white background work is done in camera. Meaning, I don't copy and paste subjects onto another background in Photoshop. However, I do need to clean it up a little bit sometimes (along the floor), and I use photoshop to do that.
Good luck to you in learning Photoshop. Scott Kelby writes great Photoshop books that make it easy to learn. It's a powerful program and well worth learning. Good luck!
