Post processing is where the magic happens

As great as today's DSLR cameras are, they are only as good as the operator and even in a pros capable hand, really only do half the job. Take a look at the examples above. The bottom photo is the actual photo I took on a recent shoot with a very expensive professional grade camera before any post processing. As it stands, I wouldn't think of using it... it's just not complete...it's distorted, the colors are off, etc. The top photo is the same exact photo after our post processing... it's not hard to see the second image is drastically better... a professional photo.
