One of the biggest struggles I hear from my readers is the photo selection process. We are all connected to the photos we take. So connected in fact that it’s hard to choose one photo over another. However, photo selection is a crucial component of a photo book. Too many photos in a book creates an almost overwhelming aspect to your photo book and in the end, it can take away from the photos themselves.
I’m in the process of developing something to tackle this issue but for now I have a video that I hope will help. This is the 2nd of 5 videos on the photo book process.
If you remember the first video, I showed you how I photograph my kids on a casual Saturday afternoon.
Today, I’m going to show you my unedited, unculled photos – specifically so I can show you how I narrow photos of my kids for a photo book.
My white balance was crazy – especially in the first couple of photos. But that’s fixable. As you see next month!
Plus one thing to keep in mind, the funky white balance, under/over-exposed photos may not be the photos you want to include for your book. So you don’t always have to obsess over the details. Especially at this stage.
