since i have been sick i havent taken any photos in a week. but i felt better two nights ago and jeff convinced me to go with him and the kids to the park. i went, and then felt even worse that night. but i did get some fun shots while i was there.
and…something i have been thinking about doing for a long time…i have been helping people with their images here and there, and i decided to go ahead and make it official. i am not sure how much interest i will have, so i am not sure how well i will be able to juggle this. so lets take it slow and see how it goes.
Brilliant idea, Tara! I can see it now – photos popping up all over with fabulous Tara conversions! :) Good luck with this!
oh this is fabulous Tara! bummer about being sick though :)
Wow, what a great service to offer! This is awesome! Hope you’re feeling better!
Awesome idea… so you wouldn’t consider selling the actions so we could do this on our own??? Either way very cool, I am suer it will be super popular!
Tara you are just a genius. Brilliant idea! I just got photoshop CS and I aint gonna lie-it makes my brain hurt.. still trying to figure it out, but I am determined!! Love the photo’s!
what fun shots! i hope you feel better soon!
Just the thought of my little old photos with the Tara touch – sigh. But better yet have you thought of teaching a class over at Stacy J Big Picture ? Now that would very cool.
What an awesome idea!!! I’ll be gathering my first 10!
Hope you feel better…
I’m in…
didn’t take long to make that decision!
will take a little longer to:
figure out the zip thing
pick the photos special enough for a tara-proof
should we email them to you or do you want us to contact you first and let you schedule us?
Thank you!!!
you are a brilliant mind, t! love the proof storyboard…totally shows your magic off. Hope you feel all better soon :o)

I’m sure you are going to be overwhelmed with clients.

I was going to comment on the basket, but someone beat me to it… someone I owe a drink, I might add.
Re: proof
Brilliant idea. Never heard of it and SO in demand. Brilliant.
Man! All of the photos are so SPECTABULOUS! Makes me feel like I want to go out and buy new digital camera! Beautiful family! beautiful photos! Beautiful smiles!

QUESTION::::
Miss tara…..do you ‘MANUAL’ focus….????
Greaaaaattt Shots!!!
WhooHoo Tara! I am so excited and I want to pick some pics to have you play with. I get paid next week and will put it in the budget. I am so hoping that you teach with Big Picture too! I would love to pick your brain girl! Or at least be the butterfly on the wall to see you work your magic.
:)
that is so great tara!
How cool! It is so fun to watch your business grow and do so well. Here’s to doing what you love and getting paid for it!!! Best of luck to you!
Are you kidding me?!? This will be awesome, Tara. :)
Tara, I would love to buy the info on how you do it. I love your site. So sorry you have been sick. I’ve really missed seeing your work.
Thhat is an AWESOME idea!
Very Cool! What an awesome Idea. You’ve inspired me to start playing with Levels and Curves more. In fact I think I first heard the word “curves” used in this way from your blog. I just posted a sample of playing with photoshop on my blog! Im addicted!
oh, I like this… :) will have to send you some pictures soon!!
That picture of Jeff CRACKS me up.
Great blue wall too.
Love the idea you have come up with. I think it is absolutely brillant. I’ll be sending some pics your way.
Hope you get to feeling better soon.
Tara, I just want to say your a fantastic and super talented photographer. What a wonderful gift and talent to share! Keep up the good work and thanks so much for sharing your craft with the electronic world!
Hope you feel better soon. I will send you an email. You have such a brillant eye for color. Thank you so much for offering this service. Lauren
Way to go Tara…
I have a similar service here in Australia. Except I will sit there and fix them up.. i think you might be a little smarter than me and skip that part of the process!
Good luck with it .. love the proof website!
So this is how you get your awesome lighting? After the photo is taken? I always wondered if you used reflectors or special flash methods during the shoot. Please reveal…so curious!
KU-UHL! I’m already thinkin’ of the pictures that need your help!
Valerie, glad you’re feeling better!
you are a goddess! and a great thinker – i love your idea!!
i’m also thinking about painting our garage door turquoise – i’m inspired by your awesome backgrounds!!!
heather-no, i get good lighting from the sun. ;) but i pop my colors in photo shop afterward.
beth-turquoise is my FAVORITE color. i cant stop looking for it everywhere. a garage door! awesome!
It is so cool to watch you evolve in your work. It will be so great of you to offer it to other people. I miss my little curly head in the proof banner. Whoa has time flew by since then! I am so glad you used her. Get this, this week I am actually getting my TW portraits (from last year) printed, and I bought frames, to smother our mantle with. Finally!
ooh, how cool!! I’ve been trying to give my photos a “tara” touch by experimenting with PS on my own but it would be even cooler to have one done by Tara herself!! are you charging for this service??
t
i have been using ps programs since 1991…my background is graphic design…i think it is wonderful that you and many others inspire so many women to play with technology…it can be sooooo much fun!
I sure hope you have an action set up for all this b/c you’re going to be one busy lady!
While all of your photos are gorgeous, the one of McKenna is perfect! She looks absolutely beautiful!!!
Love your photography. I visit your site from time to time. I am no way near and expert and my photos are not that great at all. I would love the opportunity to send you some special shots of my son, for you to work your magic on, some time in the near future.
