I’ve spent my time reading, taking notes, and creating A LOT of images. I want to share some of the things I’ve learned through other people’s wisdom and trial and error.

Keywords you may have seen in some pretty amazing images are key to picture-perfect images. Which keywords will result in a photo quality image (as above) or a ‘painted’ quality image. Let’s break it down.
