    Thanks for sharing! How do you get the matte finish in your inspiration image for printed images? Do you have a tutorial for your print images? I watched the Lightroom tutorial for IG but I’d love to know how to achieve the matte look for print

    • @thesaltedimage

      The only difference between my print edits vs IG edits is generally a trip into Photoshop. I use a filter and/or texture at very low levels to give a more painterly look. I do my actual prints on Hahnemuhle Photo Rag paper and it has a matte look and very deep blacks. Sometimes, I may lift the shadows more in Lightroom which can lead to a matte look. Hope that helps!

    Your videos are great! I've followed you in Instagram and just love your style so it's so interesting so see how you work. I personally like Rembrandt light for my flowers when I use ofc, though they are nowhere near your style.
