For more on this, check out the following article: A Technically Perfect Photo is Meaningless Find an image that speaks to you and your friends. Forget about a technically perfect image. That is why it is best to share it with as many people as you can.

And that is what makes it the most difficult because there is a tremendous amount of subjectivity involved. It is all about finding an image that is pleasing to the human eye. While creativity is important, it is equally important to not overdo things and try too hard. I’ve found the best way to narrow it down is to select 35 images and then show it to friends and family and let their instincts help you.Īnother important thing to remember is that it is always best to go with the more natural poses. Choosing 3-5 images out of 500 from a photoshoot is hard. Even with the best retouching methods, if the right photo to edit wasn’t chosen, the results won’t be exciting or pleasing to the eye. The importance of it is often overlooked. The purpose of the methods I'm about to share is not to change the photos, rather to enhance it.Ĭulling images is simple. It will not change a bad photo into an excellent photo. Editing an image will only take a great photo over the edge. Another quick thing I'd like to point out is the false concept that 'it's all about the editing'.
