This is such good and informative message.  I have learned honestly to reach out to people that are not locals or who has retired from photography.  Some of people that I use to work with at a photography studio is all doing the same thing and may look at me as a potential threat due to us being in the same field and working amongst each other.  I will continue to do the Bridge class followed by the Raw class and then Mask and Layering.  I tend to have about 50-70 images for clients and I know that is way waaaay to many images but listening to others and saying in person sales is not that important. Well once I came to the conclusion of listening to myself and finding my own style and technique and doing things how I want them to be done. 

Thank you for letting me know what future settings to use and to what I need to start doing.  When I edit this family session, I didn't use Photoshop at all and only used LR.  PS is something that I just recently wanted to dive into because I feel it is NEEDED for photography and wanting to have some sort of knowledge of it. I was told that PS isn't needed and how some don't use it, but I want to.  I asked a photographer friend about settings I was told to be around there somehow, but now I know how incorrect the was.  Even after the client informed me know that her quality was poor because she was unable to print 10x13, 16x20 and larger, I asked for help and was told it was my focus issue, then lens issue.  Now I know not to listen to someone who may look at me as competition.  

Ok, I will come back tmrw and finish this.  Ive been at the computer for about 8 hours now!

So with proper editing is there a way to upload them properly?

Yes, I plan to finish BR soon! wishing the next week or so.  Ive been taking a lot of notes and just practicing on old images to get the gist of things.

I honestly will.  I am starting to become a photographer independently and really want and need to learn PS.  Im straying away from the other program that you do not like lol. 

Honestly, you have truly made my night🥰🥰 I still not familiar with PS at all but I got to figure out how to edit them properly but I will start figuring it out now so I can resend to the client as she will not be expecting the images as I told her we will reshoot but she has to get her family together again. 

The original files needed to be put in PS as I needed to expand the background.  I friend of mines did it for me as I didn't know anything about photoshop. 

OMG, really?

 I didn't do it ...WE DID IT!🥰🥰 But the client was unable to print a wall portrait because it was out of focus and very soft.  I tried to have someone assist me and they told me that I would have to retake the session due to poor quality. 

Hey, so I found the file it is under DNG but when I tried to upload it its says -200 with an error and unable to let me send, so I send this shot so you can see I was able to accomplish it!!!!

No what do I change my settings back to🤔 its still on the w700px h700px. 

I was just about to say what about the family lol... No I haven't

VERY MUCH SO!! LOL! Since this image was able to be full screen it was a breeze honestly but with the other image I struggled because of the file size to achieve what you were looking for!

Doing it now!

LOL! Ok but the image of the adult lady wasn't a concern of mines, more so the group image that I struggle with the focus.  However all those images are in Jpeg format and the adult lady and the child are in Tiff files.

Ok! So with the images that I been struggling to send the correct way, is the reason why the upload could Jpeg be an issue?

Ok, so I went through some of my images that I have on my computer and I have some files that are TIFF's and some that are Jpegs.  I notice that my Tiff files gives the full screen and the jpegs doesn't.  I have always shot in RAW so unsure as to way it is the way it is.  I will send a couple of screenshots for you. 

Hold on. I think I figured something out!

These are the original raw files from my camera. The image turned b/w when I screenshot it but this is how I took the image.  Also my name is at the bottom of the image as it was on my camera.  I am trying to help you guys also:-) 

Ok. This is the image I have saved on my computer from this session.  I struggled with the focus of the image and I'm not sure as to why its this small.  How can I upload it to be a larger file?  Good thing Im learning some of this stuff now lol

I really really truly thank you for being so patient with me 🙂
