I like that look too. I've been trying to go that way on some shots but haven't quite got it down. These are maybe the closest I've come:




Shadow/Highlight in CS2 helps.

I don't know if this is what you're looking for, but I use the program "RAW Shooter Esentials" to process my RAW files. I increase the fill light in that software to get this effect before I even move it to CS2.

TONE MAPPING

I think the LucisArt filter gets you 75% there in terms of processing.

This one looks very Rockwellian to me, and she did neither tonemapping nor Lucis.

I use LucisArt all the time and in combination with a smoother, such as NI or Redfield Perfectum, you can definitely get the Norman Rockwell look down because it accentuates contours and makes it look like a painting.

Norma Rockwell-esque:


Lighting, shadows, and saturation levels. 5-10 minute edit.

thanks - i'll try some of these ideas

@ alfresco - what do you mean when you say lighting? do you mean the lighting setup or - adjustments after the fact. i'd be curious of the lighting setup if that's what you're reffering to...

thanks again all.
