Why we love MCP Actions!

There is not much more we can say about Jodi and her actions except that they ROCK!

Every action is better than the next and takes your pictures from great to AWESOME with easy clicks.

Here is a shot I took recently at a sunset session on the beach.

Cute.
But I will be honest, as I was shooting I already knew in my mind that I was going to pop these pics with some MCP action!
I knew I wanted that gorgeous late evening sky to pop and my subject to be perfectly displayed.

Here is what I did:

I used  a combination of actions from the Bag of Tricks set and some of my favorite MCP actions to finish up.

I started with Magic Light on this little guys face right under the bar he is hanging from that caused a wee bit of shadowing. I grabbed Magic Dark on the sky in the background to give it some depth.

I wanted the sky to sparkle shine and be bright as can be so I ran Magic Color Finder {Intense}, set my brush to 100% and painted away.

I ran Magic Midtone Lifter to brighten the shadows. I finished off with Eye Doctor and Magic Skin (it was a little chilly and my little guy was a bit on the cool side on the skin, Magic Skin lightens, brightens and smooths all in one fun action.)

And here is the finished product.

Of course finishing up with MCP’s Finish It set makes blogging a post like this SUPER easy!
