Mobile & Desktop Presets Coming in 2019

Need some help editing photos on your phone or desktop?? If you had the option use a preset on your phone to make your photos the same style you wanted EVERY time, would you use this in place of the awful filters we are given to use on our phones/social media?? There will also be a desktop version too!! Which style would interest you? Light and airy, film, black and white, muted greens, or something else. Tell me all about it below! 🤓⬇️⬇️ Some of these presets I made will be available soon for phone or desktop! 🙂🙂 #mobilepresets #editlikeaboss #lightroomhacks #chooseastyle #nomoreawfulfilters #betterthanfilters #consistentedits #edithacks #kjcourses #lightandairypresets #filmpresets #blackandwhitepresets #mattepresets #likeaboss #edits #editlikeapro #prettyphotos #pretty

A Wonderful Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas, filled with family, food, fun, and presents. What was your favorite gift you gave to someone or received from someone? My favorite was a gift from my hubby. He gave me a gift certificate for a massage. Woohoo! 💕 Looking forward to taking advantage of that gift in the new year! 🙂 . . . #merrychristmasdarling #merrychristmas #celebratejesus #kjlightingcourse #kjposingcourse #kjmarketing #kjconsistencycourse #kjbusinessjourney #kjeverything 😂 #boutiquephotoeditor #privatephotoeditor #outsourceeditor #outsourcing #privatephotoediting #myfamilyofphotographers #lovethelight #glowygoodness #mastinskintones #reallife #mommingandworking #momlife #bemommyfirst #lifeofamom #lightroomhacks #lightroomninja #palettegear

An Amazing Break!

I had the most amazing Thanksgiving break with my sister and her family who came to TX from PA. And let me tell you, my sister introduced me to a power couple  # chipgaines  and  # joannagaines . We went to Magnolia Market and had a blast! I got some cupcakes and a t shirt, haha. I could literally smell their bakery over a block away. The line was long but the wait time wasn't too bad! These cupcakes were  # wortheverycalorie . They were THAT good! Don't worry, I shared with my boys.  😂  Busy season is almost over for me and I am definitely looking forward for the break off until January 2nd. I worked my busiest season yet this fall. Last year couldn't hold a candle to this year, and I thought I was busy then! Phew!  💥 Over the break I will be working on starting a very special series that I can't wait to share with you all!! I hope I can get them out as fast as I can edit like a  # Lightroom  ninja. Wish me luck!! Post below one tradition or family memory you loo

How to Become BFF's With Your Editor

How to Become BFF's with Your Editor and make them love editing for you even more: **Make subfolders in your raw folders before loading into Lightroom from each part of your wedding day. This allows editing in each category for easy peasy editing. PLUS, it is really easy to load your photos in your galleries for your clients. A win-win for both of us!! I have a lot of BFF's in my photography family unbeknownst to them.   😂 🤣 🤗 # kjlightingcourse   # kjposingcourse # kjmarketing # kjconsistencycourse # kjeverything   😂 # boutiquephotoeditor   # privatephotoeditor   # outsourceeditor # outsourcing   # privatephotoediting # myfamilyofphotographers # lovethelight # glowygoodness # mastinskintones # reallife # mommingandworking # momlife   # bemommyfirst # lifeofamom # lightroomhacks

My Guy is 9 & End of Summer Update!

 I meant to take pictures of my nine year old guy in May y'all! But it happened in July and I'm posting in August. 😊 Life has been a little crazy with busy season, summer, and moving. I edited on average about 30-40 weddings a month and this fall is about to get busier than that! I'm so thankful for my family of photographers. Busy season starts up in just a few weeks. Being a private photo editor means I'm busy when it's busy season for other photographers. But I totally enjoy editing for my photographers. I love to learn and see their styles, methods of shooting, lenses they use, and everything they pour into their business first-hand. It's a sneak peek at the best of the best, and I feel like I'm getting just as much value out of editing as they do! We have enjoyed our summer full of go carts, swimming, playing with friends and family, and enjoying the hot and cold weather to the fullest! Here's a few of a July day this past month. My guy is 9.

Spring Break!

I am loving all the weddings sent to me with new spring and summer colors.They are beautiful and so colorful! This photo is from a wedding I actually shot this past weekend. Love me some purples. 😍😍  This week I only have a few weddings to edit, so I'm also planning on spending some off time with my kiddos! ❤❤ What are some fun memories you have had with your family that you remember doing together? #communityovercompetition #kjconsistencycourse #kjlightingcourse #kjposingcourse #kjeverything 😂 #boutiquephotoeditor #outsourcingworks #outsourceeditor #privatephotoediting #privatephotoeditor #myfamilyofphotographers #springbreak

The Benefits of a Workflow

When you finish editing and delivering your own wedding you shot #likeaboss under 3 days. 🤞😁 Sure, to any nay sayers, this was a shorter wedding. Longer weddings take an extra day or so to make time to work on the rest of the edits in between family, life and everything else that comes with running your own business. We wear multiple hats! But what if I told you, you could outsource your editing? I follow the same process as I teach my photographers who I edit for to do: Culling, separating all the photos from the day into categories, anchor edits, picking your sneak peeks and stomping them to share online Facebook, editing the rest of the catalog, saving the catalog, saving the full res images, and then uploading for the client online to deliver. Next is Instagram and blogging for me and their flash drive sent out tomorrow. It took around 8+ hours total from culling to delivering. How?! When you have a workflow in place and you edit multiple weddings in a week, y'all, you
