Oooh baby I like it RAW
The first time I used an SLR in a commercial capacity it was with real film, 'OMG really?'. In fairness, the digital transition was already happening but not everybody was totally convinced. Once you truly learn the basics you never forget, this has led me to offering real value in the studio.
The immediacy of photography, the understanding of the capabilities brought with Lightroom and Photoshop, means it doesn't take long to reignite the passion and wonder why I don't use it everyday.
