Thursday Tip: How To Use 'Convert To Black and White'

The Thursday tip this week is a little tutorial on how to use the Convert To Black and White tool that comes with our sets of actions. It's pretty essential if you want to change the opacity of Black and White actions like Silverback, Earl Grey, Silver Plate, Casablanca etc. Check it out below. It's also on our Tips and Tricks tab along with a couple of other nifty little tutorials...

Thursday Tip: Experiment

So you've bought some of our actions? Well now it's time to experiment! The best advice I can give is to try them all, make some favourites and figure out what works for you. Remember not all of the actions will look good on every photo! It depends on the light, the colours and so much more, so remember to revisit actions that may not have worked for you before. We'll be giving you more advice soon on what we think are some of our best actions for specific light conditions. As well as all this, don't forget to try the actions on other images besides weddings. Lots of them are super flattering on skin tones so are perfect for portraits - especially of little ones (see below for an example by Lisa), and we LOVE using them on still lives. 

Have fun guys!

 Sunset Boulevard is part of Set IIII.
