Camera Guides & Reviews:

Image Editing Software:

  • Adobe CS4 Collection
    My main piece of editing software, flash animations and general graphics for print or web.
  • Advanced JPEG Compressor
    A great piece of software that allows you to easily compress and watermark thousands of photos at once. I use this software for all my images on this site.

  • Nik Software Complete Collection
    An amazing collection of plugins for Photoshop that allow you to easily create effects and more!
  • Photomatix
    A very useful tool in creating HDR (High Dynamic Range) images. Although I rarely, if ever, use the HDR I do heavily use the Exposure Blending tool. It creats a subtle look without looking all cartoonish like most HDR images.
