Desiree & Ray - Rock The Dress

May 23, 2014 by Chris Vitale

Desiree & Ray - Rock The Dress from Shine Photography & Films on Vimeo.

Desiree & Ray are absolutely one of my favorite couples to photograph and film, so when we set out to film a Rock the Dress, I was really excited to capture them in action. We choose an ocean front setting to compliment their beach style wedding. After watching this film a few times, I really can't wait for summer!

Photoshop Touch is actually awesome!

March 5, 2013 by Chris Vitale

Being a Photoshop user for over ten years I can tell you that we have a love hate relationship with each other. I love using it but I hate sitting behind a desk all day. Well, Adobe has an answer for all you antsy photo-shoppers out there. This week they dropped the other shoe and brought their breakthrough iPad app Photoshop Touch to iPhone and Android. Honestly, it wouldn't take much to impress me considering that every mobile photo editing app, up until now have been mostly unusable. There are a core handful of features that are essential to be creative in photo editing and they're almost all in Photoshop Touch. Multi-layers with overlaying and opacity, selection isolation, clone stamping and channel curves. The only major omission I miss are layer masks. For now, you have to duplicate and erase layer data. It lacks some finesse but it will do. CS6 it is not, but for just five bucks, think of what you can create. Mind you, on a mobile device that has a really great camera built right into it too.

Welcome to Vitale Photography

This blog is geared towards anyone who loves photography, design, technology and pop culture. I believe they all go hand in hand. If your a photographer, designer, artist or aspire to be one, I'm sure you know what I mean when I say, you begin to see the world a little differently than most others. You are constantly noticing direction of light, appreciate color relationships, typography, body language... and all before you've even had your first cup of coffee. You are lucky, because you see art everywhere. There's no turning back for you and you are welcome here.
