There’s still time to book a session with us before Christmas. In fact, we are extending our Holiday Promo until December 23rd! This is a very streamlined package that includes a 45 minute mini-session with us and 15 high-resolution files to print and duplicate till your heart’s content. Additionally, you’ll receive between twenty to thirty photos in a low-resolution format for sharing over the web.

Space is extremely limited so please contact us at bookings@graceleighphotography.com as soon as possible to book your session.

Life as a wife to Dave S. has been nothing short of incredible. I am honored to be called a wife, let alone to be the wife of such a wonderful, caring, patient, loving and kind man as YOU, my love. I hope you like the photos and thank you to my beautiful Carissa Grace for taking them for us!

More photos to come but for now, here’s a little sample.

Lately, I’ve been spending a lot of time experimenting with and perfecting my post-processing techniques. I find that I am leaning more towards that luminous, saturated look that is achieved when you brighten and boost. (lighten + contrast) I have also been learning how to sharpen my photos more judiciously in hopes that they will look more naturally crisp without looking like I just ran an unsharp mask. I know that not everyone agrees with the philosophy of post-processing but we here at Grace Leigh Photography are incredibly huge fans of the extra artistic touch that it adds to our images. We feel that photography is an art that includes not only the light-capturing & shutter-clicking but the creative development after the fact. Here’s an example of a SOOC (straight out of camera) shot compared with it’s processed version. Is it a drastic comparison? Yes. Is it over-processed? I believe that is relative. I would say “no” since I intentionally wanted a heavily saturated, high-contrast look. You may feel differently. Check it out:

Here are a few additional images I’ve been working on that represent this luminous look I’ve been trying to achieve. I feel they have been tastefully processed and the end result is simply a clean, clear, pretty image.
