If you’ve been holding out on purchasing the Fresh Blend Action Set recently, wait no more! I am offering a $15 off coupon code through the end of this week. Go HERE to purchase and enter coupon code summersizzle to get $15 off the action set!

And because no post is good without a picture, here is a beautiful couple I recently photographed. I used Caramel Latte on this image and just a smidge of Vintage Crush. I also finished it off by using a very low opacity of Glowy Pop. This couple sure puts the sizzle in summer!

Have a wonderful week!

Thought I’d share some recent pictures processed with my actions! I sometimes use a combo of my actions at lowered opacity on pictures and I sometimes just use one on an image at full or lowered opacity.  My favorite right now is Peachy Keen for newborn/child sessions like below.   With the maternity session further below, I used Summer Daze and Caramel Latte.    You may find Summer Daze too strong for head-shots or studio portraits, but I typically lower the opacity down for those if I use that action.  On outdoor images that are back-lit, it works beautifully at full opacity and makes me giddy!   Keep in mind I always correct exposure and white balance before processing creatively.  Hope those of you who have bought them are loving them! I’d love to see some of your examples over on my Facebook Page!
Stay tuned for more shares!

I’ve also decided to extend the $10 coupon code for 25 more lucky people since this launch has been so much fun!!

I’ve been working fervently over the past few months on this new set of actions and I couldn’t be more excited to release them today! I’m offering a discount code for $10 off this set using coupon code Fresh10 to the first 50 people!  This 18- action set is compatible with Photoshop CS2-CS5 editions (I should be adding an Elements version sometime in the near future, so Elements users check back!).  Click the “See Examples” link at the top of the page to see some examples of the actions in “action”!

I feel so fortunate to all of those who have supported me in my actions venture and helped me out by testing and providing samples of them in use. I seriously have the most amazing group of friends! I owe the name choice to one of my awesome friends Desiree Hayes (who also is INSANELY talented behind a camera, check out her work!). The design and artwork couldn’t be any more perfect and I owe that to one of my other awesome friends Lisa Smits, who has become a really close friend to me in a record amount of time. She’s going to helping me out with a lot of my behind-the-scenes business stuff. YAY! I have a whole blog post in mind for her (which I’m sure she’s stoked about )

Also, today I am finishing up my first Creative Processing class over at Clickin Moms and those girls were some of the first to receive my actions in the class. We had a great 4 weeks together and they all learned so much about how to process creatively.  I’ll be running another Creative Processing class in June so check it out if you want to learn a bunch of really fun processing techniques!
