I absolutely love retouching especially when the lighting and sources are ideal for me to use!
I had the pleasure of working with Simpson Yiu (who i think does remarkable lighting). I worked on an image that is portfolio worthy (my retouching portfolio):
Retouching is very technical…not as creative as I would like it to be but that’s okay :). It is what I do when I don’t want to think…

SYDNEY, Australia - Australian media say a lost humpback whale calf has bonded with a yacht it seems to think is its mother.
The 1- to 2-month-old calf was first sighted Sunday in waters off north Sydney, and on Monday tried to suckle from a yacht, which it would not leave.
Rescuers towed the yacht out to sea, and the calf finally detached from the boat but still swam nearby, Australian Broadcasting Corp. and Channel 10 television news reported.
The calf appears exhausted but rescuers hope it will continue out to sea and search for its mother or another pod of whales.
“The outlook is not good, but we are giving the calf its only option. It can’t be fed, and in fact we wouldn’t know what to feed it” because it is not weaned, National Parks and Wildlife regional manager Chris McIntosh told ABC radio.
Joel and I registered for the Nike + Human Race for August 31, 2008. Joel’s running for Livestrong and I am running for the WWF (yay wrestlers! j/k..I mean animals!). Slowly but surely I have been training and what I mean by training is walking my dog and running when he doesn’t stop somewhere to poo or pee. haha. Today, however, I did over three miles. I enjoyed two miles nonstop and a nice long walk back home. I later capped the night with some light weights and crunches.
In other news, my mom and I are also slowly moving into our new place. It’s a quiet area. It is a bit like a retirement community but…hey… that means I can get a lot more studying done!
Gorgeous!
So yes, that is one of the images I shot on Saturday! Isn’t she hot? I definitely love working with her (it’s my third time, but second time as a photographer ;)). She’s one of the most beautiful, sweet, and intelligent humans I have ever met! I wish more people like her existed. Good people are far and between.
Yesterday, Kim and I were talking, or really, she gave me insight to something I overlooked. The thing is…after our talk, it made me see all these tiny actions of kindness that are far more worthwhile than anything. They are the ripple effects of human kindness that touches souls and souls…
Speaking of which… It does boggle my mind when “not so good people”, you know the ones that trample on others to get to the top, continue to get to the top. It makes me wonder why people keep picking them over honesty and integrity? But hey, it’s all business and looks, right? Who likes an individual that excessively boasts and shows no sign of weakness? That’s not human, that’s ALIEN! But hey, it makes them sleep better at night.
All in all, I like people that are ambitious but remember their heart is with family, their community, the world…and they actually make a difference.
