As you may have heard, Gucci, Raising Malawi, and UNICEF held a fundraiser last night to benefit impoverished children in Africa.
The event featured photographs by our longtime client and friend, Kristen Ashburn. Kristen’s images are simply arresting, and have inspired us to step up Big Swing’s involvement in charitable works.
Kristen Ashburn and Big Swing worked together to create an image for the event.
We recently started working with photographer Joel-Peter Witkin.
Some of Joel’s new images require basic composite work, and we are frankly honored that he’s chosen to work with Big Swing.
Stephen Yadzinski will be teaching four courses with the Santa Fe Photographic Workshops in 2008.
Photoshop: The Next Step will be taught three times throughout 2008. Those dates are: January 14-18, April 14-18, and May 12-16.
Beginning Photoshop with Lightroom for Photographers is scheduled for February 10-16, 2008.
As we get closer, I’ll write more specifically about the workshops. In the mean time, here’s a little more info:

So, what’s the difference between working with an 8-bit image and a 16-bit image? Short answer: a lot of color.
