Photography Question

Workflow


I read somewhere on a thread that you can save 'recipes' and apply them to your pic - so heres the problem.... I've shot about 900 pix at a wedding, I've gone through, tossed the baddies and am now trying to be selective about which to REALLY keep! How do I apply sharpening, hue/contrast/ etc to each pic, when they all have different lighting/situations etc? I'm managing to do about 10 per night and I think I'll still be doing this next year! I have another wedding on the 26th March and am really worried!!! (I also think I'm going blind from looking at the screen, and forgetting to blink, the kids are hungry, the man is neglected.... and when I do hit the bed, my head is so wired its buzzing!!!)

  When I do just hue/contrast I save my settings in the hue/contrast diaglogue box and then load them the next time.

However, if you are doing mulitiple things to each you can look up how to record "actions" in PS help. That will do the same thing to each picture ... so I suppose that doesn't help with the different lighting and stuff. But if you sharpen, resize, and save(like saving tiffs or jpegs) the same way for each then you could record it all in a single "action" and save yourself a lot of time.

Hope you find time to get some rest soon. You'll get through this as you learn tricks that will help you be more efficient. Hopefully my suggestions help.
