My shoot with Chelsea :)

-->I've been telling myself for a while now that I would start doing photo shoots just for me;  Ideas that I've had in my head, I would finally get done.  So with Winter being slow, it was finally time to make one of those shoots happen.

Thankfully Chelsea is crazy and doesn't mind freezing, hehe.  I'm just kidding, she not crazy, she's awesome!  And it wasn't so cold, until the end of the shoot and I made her get a giant mud puddle, hehe.  But that's why I love her!

I'm pretty please to say that when editing these photos, I only used one action from Pure Photoshop Actions, to sharpen her eyes.  Of course I could have done it on my own, but it was pretty pointless when I had a perfectly good action sitting there.  Other than that, I edited all of these photos with just my knowledge of photoshop.  And really, all I used was the dodge and burn tools, curves, selective coloring and contrast.

While I do love a good action set, I recommend everyone try to edit photos without them and create something that is truly yours.

Now back to Chelsea.  She is so unbelievable stunning in these photos.  So blessed to have her as an awesome model. :)
