Last year I shot some of our neighbors and their friend’s prom photos before they headed out for the evening. This was a quick studio type session using my “new” seamless white background set up in my garage with a couple of speedlights and umbrellas. Nothing real fancy. You can see a web album of those shots by Clicking Here.
I post processed one of the photos and put it on my FLICKR site to share and for comments. One of the comments challenged me to remove the glare at the hair line on the right side of the face. I checked out some photoshop tuts and found many methods on how to do remove glare from a photo. So – I cleared up the glare and decided to post how I did it to a FLICKER group called “The Portland Post“, a group that is geared to sharing before and after techniques of editing photos.
Today, while googling my name (everyone does it, right?) I came across that “before” and “after” prom photo on a WEB Site for hair removal. I don’t really have a problem with them using one of my photos, I guess. It’s kind of fun to see my work being used and shared. After all, under the creative commons license they can use it as long as they don’t alter or change the photo and give me credit.
But really, a prom photo for a facial hair removal web page – really?
