Photography – Photo Editing with RadLab

April 12, 2013 by zoomyummy

tulip - totally rad presets - before and after comparison

Lately I’ve received quite a few questions asking me what my photo editing process looks like. This got me thinking about how many stages in photo processing I have actually gone through.
A few months ago I put together this post about my favorite retouching techniques.
And just recently I found a real gem. It is a cute set of actions (or ‘stylets’) called RadLab. And I ADORE that thing! The actions/stylets are super-easy to use and make the whole photo editing process really quick and enjoyable.
Here are a few example for you to compare…

What do you think? Do you like the difference?
Love,
Petra
