Open Shutter photos from Montreal Comiccon 2014
Photos d’Open Shutter de Comiccon de Montréal 2014
All of the photos taken at the convention are done, edited, and uploaded to Dropbox. Please let me know if you can’t find your photos – because of the way I processed the photos, I skipped over some series of images to keep returning customers together as much as possible, and I also prioritized the small kid photos – going back to catch all ones I skipped over, I may have missed some. Like the Zorro pictures. Sorry, Zorro.
The photos are free for you to use and print for personal use and self-promotion. Please credit me if you share the images. If you don’t like the placement of the watermark on any images, let me know and I’ll redo it with the watermark in a different place. If you click on the links below and there are no photos in the folders, something is either terribly wrong, or it’s not September 12 yet.

Dropbox is mobile-friendly, allows downloads, and works on all platforms. The files are large but not huge. If you want larger files for any reason, drop me a line and I’ll go back to the RAW files and upload a larger version for you.

Facebook is Facebook, no surprises there. The files are not as large, but you can tag yourself in them. Note that not all of the photos will be uploaded to Facebook – I tend to pick only the best from each client for my Facebook albums to avoid repetition.
(Post-convention update: It’s Monday night and I am almost through the first pass on the Sunday images. In case you want to know, my workflow is this: I do a triage of the images in Photoshop Bridge; then I open the CR2 files in Raw Editor, and do a first cleanup pass – fixing lens aberrations and distortion, white balance, cropping, basic blemish and spot removal. Then I export the images to JPG. Then I open each series in Photoshop, and do the detail work of removing objects (usually because the 10′ wide backdrop is too narrow), adding special effects, fixing light on teeth, more blemish removal, etc. The files are saved as JPG again, then brought into Lightroom to add the watermark and final file size in a batch, saving the files direct to a Dropbox folder on my Mac, which immediately uploads at a snail’s pace because Bell likes to throttle my high speed service any time I try to upload anything. Once they are in the Dropbox folder, they get renamed one more time to make them all go in the right order, and that’s it. The photos are there for you. Then I pick one or two photos from each set to go onto Facebook.)
(The photos will all be up by the end of the night Tuesday. Thank you for your patience. By the way if any of you out there want changes to your images, or want some removed, or anything else, just contact me and I’ll help you out.)
