#NoFilter

Like I mentioned on the last day of the year, it seems like 2014 was the year of Photoshop fails / getting called out for altering your Instagram photos. But in just one week, there’s been a few things that make me think 2015 is the year of #nofilter…but a true #nofilter (not the nearly 10 million #nofilter lies…which we’ll get to in a moment). So why exactly are we re-touching these photos in the first place, whether for Instagram or a major publication?

CCF Loves: Zak Stemer

One of the most popular publications in Chicago, if not the most popular, has some pretty smart brains behind it (beauty too…see below). Everyone I’ve ever met from Splash (part of the Chicago Sun-Times if you’re not familiar) is really damn good at their job, regardless of their title. But the one person who really sticks out to me is the latest CCF Loves.
