A Case For The Slow Edit

If you enjoy posts like this, please support my work and support independent photography tutorials like this.

My video tutorials are typically crisp and to the point. In a tutorial video, I want to deliver a how-to explanation in the most direct way possible. I aim to be “economical” with time. However, my photo editing sessions are a lot slower in practice. Why? I take breaks from the image in between adjustments. I find the pauses let me return to an image with fresher eyes…. and then I can see what the next change the photo needs.
