How does he post-process? Help me nail this look.

Hi,

Been into photography for a couple of years now but never really found "my look". No I found this other photographer that has it pretty much down to how I'd like my finished photographs to look. I can't get a reply from the person himself, so I'm turning to all you pro's out there to help me pin-point his post-processing. Here's a gallery: Zach Schrock Photography / Places

From what I can tell he has some purple tone in the shadows, washed-out yellow tone in the highlights, strong contrast and lot of "Clarity" to make those dynamic skies pop. Any suggestions to point me in the right direction are welcome, thanks for your time.

Regards,
Marcus

On his web page click on CONTACT - and ask him.

It looks like he de-saturates many of his photos and make a slight Curves adjustment to the Blue RGB channel to add a slight yellow color cast. http://www.bing.com/search?q=Photo ...=-1&sk=&cvid=ab12bbb44dd143c893bb28515d6c0891

I also see many where he used a post processing technique that simulates photos of miniatures by app;y foreground and background blur.
