Deasy Photographic Launch Photoshop Actions CD
As one of the earliest adopters of digital imaging technology we have a huge understanding of digital workflow and retouching. Through this experience we have developed a collection of 36 Photoshop actions.
These actions will speed up your photographic workflow and give your digital photography an edge. We developed these actions specifically for use with our fine art black and white photography. Designed to work together, our actions will allow you create beautiful and unique images.
Along with the black and white workflow tools you will also find some stunning vintage colour actions to give your image one of nine distinctive looks.

Eyebrow expert Sinead Fagan formally of Shavata Lash Lounge in Harvey Nichols brings you Wink Beauty exclusively at the Make Up Box Naas. The art of threading is her speciality but she offers tinting and all types of waxing.
Originating in Persia Threading is an ancient form of hair removal, taking straight from the root, using a piece of cotton thread. Being both fast and very effective it is ideal for people with sensitive skin.
Removing hair from anywhere on the face, picking up the finest of hair, regrowth returns even slower than other methods. Sinead said “Eyebrows are her passion, I love the way they frame the face and express the eye. Forming the perfect arch lifts the face as well as the spirit of my clients”

Professional Portrait Photography Speaking Engagement
The conference, which took place in the ski resort of Willingen, draws portrait-photographers from all over Europe. This was Padraic and Sonia's first major speaking engagement and judging from the feedback it won't be their last. In fact they have already received invitations from other European Photography Associations and will be speaking in Brazil later this month.
The presentation entitled 'The Foundations to Building a Successful Portrait Studio' covered every aspect of Deasy Photographic's boutique portrait photography business; from our thirty year history right up to our current cutting edge practices.
Here is some of feedback we have received so far:
"you left more than 200 highly impressed photographers"
"A most motivating and inspiring seminar that you both gave at the BPP Photography Convention in Germany. Brilliant. It was a timely wake up call, and a gradual overhaul of the way we operate our Photography is already in process."
"Very nice photography. Never met a photographer with such a business and marketing model/strategy/concept as you. Thanks for sharing your knowledge."
