fake it: polaroids

June 10, 2011 ♥ in photography

my sister (top) & i (bottom) at dunkin donuts. sorry for the silly & sleepy faces. caffeine and early wake ups with little sleep will do that to us.

my sister, dad, & i go to dunkin donuts every now and then and have a a yummy sugar filled breakfast. these photos were actually taken with my point & shoot digicam. i found two very awesome photoshop actions from Maxmilian Jaenicke that transform your digital photos into polaroids. i think this is a great option for blogging.

+ polaroid generator v.1
+ polaroid generator v.2

make sure you read the ‘read me’ type files located in each action download. it contains very important info on how to use the actions & so on.

if you are wondering about my ‘roids up there, i first processed the photos of my sister and me with my (free) action: passion fruit tea, & then ran one of the polaroid actions followed by the finishing action (located in the polaroid generator (v.1))

eep. happy faking it!
[another fake it photo post tomorrow too, stay tuned]

& happy friday. yay.
