Rock Creek Wood… Photo by Matthew J. Beard

This photo has not been altered in post production much in Photoshop. All I did was add a logo and take care of anything over-exposed.

TIP: To achieve the look you want with filming OR photography, set your camera to it’s basic and raw settings, so that you can toy with it in post production to get that style you crave. If you take a picture or film something to cater to a style, than you can’t easily alter it in post, and you are basically stuck with what you filmed with.
