For the technological side of this I used a Nikon
camera and for editing I used PaintShopPro along with some editing
sites on the Internet for example http://www.picmonkey.com/
and http://www.befunky.com/ so this gave me a range of effects and touching up devices. Then for the layout I used publisher to help me make sure I have the rule of thirds.
Editing isn't new to me really, I used to enjoy editing but I had absolutely no idea how to make a picture look vintage or old in any way without it looking cheesy. So I did some research on what other people suggested and started to reduce the saturation and try lots of things out, although it reached a point where I didn't want to mess up or lose something which may have looked more vintage, so I saved every version...
Publisher is new to me, I've never needed to use it so I found it difficult at points when trying to get rid of the grids and realising that my computer didn't have the right fonts was quite confusing.
No guidelines = happy :D
Obviously I had more serious issues like the fact that I'd never used a decent camera before and so when my mum lent me hers I stood there for ages with the lens cap on saying 'Why isn't this working' so things like that time time to get the hang of as well as things like slideshare, I'd never used that so it scared me but I made it through as I did eventually with my issues with publisher and editing.
