One RAW file, three photographers…

The concept is simple – Three photographers receive the same RAW file and are asked to edit it however they see fit using Adobe Lightroom only. We then compare the results and learn about their vision and process. To learn more read our FAQs or get in touch if you’d like to contribute.

After losing his mind long ago in the creative agency scene, Tony decided to swap his phone camera for a 'proper' camera three years ago with a view to learning new skills and to seek sanity in documenting the life of others. But seriously, he's somebody who has always enjoyed people watching and his photography is simply an extension of that. He's delighted that it's something that has introduced him to so many new opportunities and great people.
