Kevin Mullins is a photographer with vision. He has worked as a full-time wedding photographer since 2009 and has 45 weddings booked for this year. He used to do a lot of portrait work, although not professionally, but had always thought of this as a way to expand his business. He knew that doing so would mean getting himself a studio – something which has been a long journey to fruition… Published in Archant’s Turning Pro magazine.
This month’s magazine features the awesome John Butler Trio, who are heading to Newquay this summer, as well as the multi-talented Ed Sheeran, who had to upgrade his first Cornwall show due to popular demand. Exeter folk may also recognise local favourites, The Computers, who are causing quite a stir across the region with their rock’n’roll antics and who have a new album out this month. Our fourth interview is with festival favourites Kitty, Daisy and Lewis. The June issue also sees the launch of our Action Sports section and photos from our 11th Birthday party in Plymouth. Good times! Read the magazine online here.
A photo or video is the perfect way to capture a moment for posterity, in my eight page guide to creating, editing and sharing your digital memories I show Windows: The Official Magazine readers how best to share and enjoy their memories.
Everyone takes pictures of people, but only by editing them can you achieve perfect portraits to be proud of. The good news is you don’t need expensive photo editing software to make effective adjustments, Windows Live Photo Gallery is perfectly capable. A few quick adjustments enable you to crop your shots for compositions with impact, banish red-eye, remove blemishes, correct colour casts and even exposure – pretty good for free. I show Windows: The Official Magazine readers how to perfect their portraits…
