When you add colour to a white background you get pastel shades at best. The files each had their contrast boosted in Lightroom and then the Lovegrove post production looks (xpa, xpb, xpc and xpd) were applied via a batch command in Photoshop. I then chose a selection of the resulting images for the preview process. Images that get get bought and chosen for print get further work in the form of skin retouching, spot and dust removal and a careful reworking of the actions in 16 bit if required. Kind regards, Damien. Hi Eric, I used coloured gels on the lights and in combination with the grey background I got deeply saturated colours in camera.

Here you can download additional web galleries for Lightroom, and in particular they do one that integrates with paypal, so you easily create galleries that allow your customers to order and pay for prints online. Best of all - it's free. Note for Damien - there appears to be a problem with the comments form on your blog. A horizontal scroll bar appears in the email and url boxes when the text overflows, causing the contents to be obscured. Just thought I'd mention it. Check out http://www.lightroomgalleries.com.

There are also some great plugins for LR that allow clients to view and select the images. Once chosen an email can be fired off providing a list of images they want. Slideshow pro as an additional plugin is great also allowing you to create different slideshow and very slick. Small cost attached to that one though.
