Photoshop’s sky replacement function has been a welcome addition to an already astonishing software. It gives photographers the opportunity to replace a sky in a photo effortlessly without the need to learn how to mask or use layers.

The word “professional” in photography is often used to describe those whose primary job is photography. But for me, this has a far greater meaning in this day and age. The reality is that very few photographers make enough money from photography alone to support them. The vast majority of photographers will either have other […]

Jim Mahar’s journey into photography started while working as a hairdresser in London’s West End. Jim was fortunate to have worked on some of the world’s most famous glossy publications as a hairstylist for photoshoots.
