More photoshop actions. Hollywood Effects free update!

There’s quite a few of you using Hollywood Effects Photogshop actions. Though a growing number of people these days are using my Power Workflow Lightroom presets, but sometimes I feel it’s easy to get lazy on the Photoshop effects we use because Lightroom is so easy, and can do so much.

While I’m not downplaying Lightroom I think we need to remember that the effects we can do in Photoshop like glows, and advanced special effects simply cannot be done in Lightroom and we don’t want to forget about PS.

In using Hollywood Effects lately I felt that it was time for a few more tools so soon I’ll be launching a free update for Hollywood Effects owners, as well as doing a brand new demo video. Their will be at least two brand new effects that I think you’ll really get some use out of so stay tuned.

Glad you're here.

I'm from WA State USA and started studying photography in 97. I started work as a pro (using that word loosely because I sucked) using film at age 16. I learned fast but was not as easy to find training then. Sometimes I beat my head against the wall until I figured stuff out.

As digital dawned I went all in and got to study with masters like Ken Whitmire. In 09 I founded the Pro Photo Show podcast. I started promoting tone-focused editing. When Lightroom arrived, I started developing tools to make editing and workflow better.

20 years of study and photography around the country earned me a Master of Photography (M.Photog) from PPA. I got to see my workshops and tools featured in publications across the industry. Once I even won the prestigious HotOne award for my "EXposed" light and tone workshop.

Wanting something calmer, I moved to Mexico in 2017. It's a land of magical light. I'm here now exploring light and trying to master my weak areas. I make videos of that for my Youtube channel, sharing what I learn. I hope you'll stick around and be part of Light Hunters Tribe... Gavin
