Hello, my name is Rod McAfee. I’ve been a professional photographer since 1969. Over the years I photographed many buildings and other structures. After recently closing my studio i started offering painting style “House Portraits”. These images begin life as a digital photograph which I transform into a digital painting.
The Process
After uploading the digital photograph to the computer, we make several changes to the image. We correct the density, color, contrast and noise and changes may be made to the sky, foreground or other areas. Once these corrections are made, the painting effect is applied. This may involve several steps to reach the finale result. The image is then sized correctly and examined before being signed and printed on professional archival paper which resists fading for up to 200 years.
