Like the sunshine


I'm getting into beauty photography more and more. I like the uber-control aspect of the lighting and the setup. There is something inherently enjoyable about controlling the lighting so precisely. Here's a few tests that I've made recently.

One of the tricks about beauty photography though, is to know when enough is enough. I mean for the photoshopping. Stuff like this is seriously photoshop intensive work and sometimes you forget that pores are actually natural and you don't NEED to airbrush every single one off. That's of course the magic, the trick is to airbrush them all off without them looking like they are all airbrushed off. :-)
