Actions Photography Tools & Tips

Sara Lynn Paige Actions (The Black & White Collection)

Exciting News!

A lot of requests come in for instruction on processing photographs, and while I’m more than willing to help people find what they’re looking for if I have time, I tend to receive the same type of requests over and over, and a lot of them: “How do you get such vivid and colorful photos?”, “How do you make your b&w photos look like real black and white?” and some are even so bold as to ask, “What do you do, step by step to achieve this?” Well, I finally decided to spare myself some time (and yours) and create some actions for those of you looking to dabble in Photoshop on your own. I decided to start with a black & white collection (boy, these take a lot of work!) and after months of work and non-stop tinkering, I’m proud to announce a finalized collection I am extremely happy with.

What The Heck Are Actions?

Don’t use actions? Don’t worry, it’s really easy. Actions are saved steps in Photoshop that do all the work for you when it comes to processing your photo. Simply open your photo in Photoshop, pick the action you want, and press play. In less time than it takes to brew a cup of tea, you have a processed photo.

    Nice work Sara – Congrats on your first set! And I see you’re using Fetch, too. Isn’t it the best?! Can’t believe at one point in time I actually emailed every. single. order. to customers. Yeesh!

      Oh my gosh, that was my first thought but then I thought I already have enough emails that I panic about getting back to ASAP that I would probably die. Do you upload your actions as is or do you zip them first? I have it up as is right now but it doesn’t leave me much room for anything else.

      I’m really excited! This was fun to do and test and what have you!
