Great to find this forum (via Victoria Bampton's posts on another board)! She always has great advise that I finally got around to checking out her 'internet home' and I'm glad I did.

Relatively new to photography and post processing (picked up a DSLR in Jan '7 for the first time). I've been working as a second shooter for a local wedding photographer since May '7 and just love it. It's not my primary job, but I'm building experience and hope to one day make a career move into photography.

As for LR, I had the hardest time wrapping my head around the concept of 'importing', 'exporting' and 'it's a database', etc. that I finally attended a one day workshop by Scott Kelby in Dec '7 that was really helpful. I now do 95% of initial post work in LR but still painfully slow in my workflow.

My hope is to use info. here to become more efficient with LR so I can continue to enjoy the entire process of shooting, editing, corrections and final display/delivery.

Thanks in advance to those that created this board and those that may respond to my posts.

Aloha,
Greg
 
Hi Greg, welcome aboard! You'll pick up loads of tips here - usually ones you didn't realise you needed to know!
 
Thanks Victoria. Your input at POTN always caught my eye. I'll make use of the search function here as I'm certain there are answers/suggestions here to questions I don't even have yet!

Kia Ora Greg, pull up a chair and a coffee and soak up the shared experience.

Are you in Hawaii??
 
Yep. Horrible light to work with. Hate this place....

Welcome to the forum shoots. I find about everything I need regarding LR advise here.

Yep, same here and nothing to take pictures of!! Applying more sunscreen.......
 
Thanks Darr, this does seem like a treasure chest of info to explore...

And Geoff, although I've never been to NZ I've seen enough photos to know you and I suffer the same plight...just a blah, listless environment all around....

Thanks for the warm (ha, no pun intended...) welcome and hope to contribute after I learn a thing or two!
