Hey guys, for watermarking your images, what are you guys using to do it?

My set's pretty much processed, but I do wanted to watermark it so it looks more 'pro' :wink:

If it's photoshop, do you guys use a specific plugin?

I don't WM my images [yet]. Post processing is not my 'thing' so I will defer to those who do.

i just used the lightroom's default option for watermarking. it takes the meta data and automatically puts it in for you. but this does look very crude.

PS: text tool, adjust opacity to 60%

Still want to figure out how to make a PS action out of this, so the watermarks are batch added, and maintain the same size across pictures. For some reason, the text size changes from picture to picture for me.

I use PS to do it, and I defined an action to do it... its basically an action that "pastes", moves, resizes, and stays open. Then I fine tune position and inversion of colour after.

the size changes because of your relative size in your crop of the original photo.

I know there must be a good way to do it in LR, but haven't taken the time to figure it out.

Take a look at this perhaps...

It'll give you an idea on how you can create your own action perhaps.

I don't typically watermark my photos but when I do I use the LR and it's crude watermark facility. From what I read there is a plugin for LR that makes it a lot less crude and more flexible.

Thanks! This was what I was looking for - earlier on you sent me a link to this before, but I lost it and did not know where to look for it.

Hey Justin, let me know if you get any feedback from the models. I'm curious to know what they think of the pictures and the event in general.

P.S. Can I get a copy of the model release(s) sent to my personal email addy?

Yup! np james, I'll just scan it and send you a copy.

I haven't sent the pics yet to the models as I'm still waiting on ppl to send me their output. I don't want to keep sending more and more photos so its even for everyone. The models are quite anxious to get their pics!

So as a note, not to rush all the photogs on development... but please send me your top 10 soon :D

Ah Dan, next time, please hold off, cause I wanted to make it fair to all the other photogs that participated.

I just didn't want them to receive like 30 photos from you, and if another participant only sends like 2...

I only sent one or two to each. I only took about 50 shots and will only process 1-2 for each of the three models I shot.

How can I contact Christy?
