DQ QuiKeys Revolutionizing Workflow

Last night in the middle of our race to get everything done before Christmas, Photoshop decided it no longer wanted to play nicely with my computer. Only a few days before Brad and I leave for Tennessee and with a pile of work to get done before we head out, this could not have come at a lousier time. While he has been furiously trying to fix the problem, I have decided to do happier things... like talk about the best workflow tool that Brad and I have ever discovered.

Last January at the DWF Convention in Tampa, Brad and I met Dave and Quin Cheung, an amazing husband and wife photography team out of Canada. They introduced us to the workflow empowerment system they developed called DQ QuiKeys. We were so impressed by what Dave showed us in Tampa that we knew there was no way we were going home without our own set. Ever since then our editing workflow has sped up dramatically. Without these amazing little keys I'm sure this holiday season would have run me over like a Mack truck. Essentially, the QuiKeys paired with my Wacom tablet enables me to fly through my editing, and deliver images that are more refined than ever before. QuiKeys enables you to toggle through three editing platforms. One for RAW workflow in Lightroom, another layer for Photoshop editing and yet another for free form album design. Honestly, I would be lost without the QuiKeys system. For any of you photographers out there looking for a way to cut down on the time you spend editing I would highly recommend the QuiKey's workflow system. I could not imagine editing without them. Seriously, get out and get ya some!




I am crossing my fingers that I will be up and editing by the end of the day, today. Until then... its back to working on organizing the office.

Happy Holidays Everyone!

Mel & Brad
