The Vision Sessions: Season 1 • Episode 1 – Jaye Haleryn
Every photographer has that one image.
The one that lives in your head, fully realized… but never quite comes to life on your screen.
For Jaye, it was a house nestled in the trees—a place filled with solitude and mystery. She had a vision for it: moody, emotional, with colors and light that told a story. But for years, she struggled to bridge the gap between what she imagined and what she could create.
In this first episode of Vision Sessions, we take on her image together. From unpacking her original concept to experimenting with color, light, and atmosphere, you’ll see every step as we transform this photo—and watch Jaye’s vision finally take shape.
It’s not just an edit. It’s a journey through creative problem-solving, subtle decisions, and those “what if” moments that bring an image to life.
✨ In this episode, we’ll explore:
-
How to approach an edit when you feel completely stuck
-
Using Adobe Camera Raw to set a strong foundation for mood
-
Creative cleanup techniques in Photoshop (yes, even moving trees!)
-
Sculpting tone and color to enhance emotional impact
-
Adding finishing touches that turn “good” into “exactly what I saw in my head”
This one’s special because it’s real. Real image. Real struggles. And a real breakthrough.
