Before & After
There are a few things that are going on right now. I'll be launching a new website that will offer high-end retouching services. And I'm currently working on a new project what will be fish related. Yup, fish. =) Stay tuned. More details later.
Here's a new image and before and after. I used slightly different processing on this one but I think it works with this image.
Technique: Curves Adjustment and Selective Color Adjustment Layers.
What light modifiers?
What light modifiers do you use?? Outrageously overpriced ProPhoto modifiers?? Or Broncolor?? I use walls and ceiling. This image was exposed by my studio's ceiling. It gave it a very even and soft light. Perfect for beauty.
Which do you like better?? Color or B&W?

Watermarking
Here is the latest. Now heavily watermarked due to mild stupidity of some people who think that they can just grab my images and claim that they are their own property. Plagiarism should be punished by life imprisonment.
First – Meagan
Here are two images of Meagan. One of the most easy-to-work-with models that I've ever had. My camera just loved her. All I had to do is to click the button...
And special thanks goes to the team of artists that transformed her from beautiful to stunning.

Beauty Shoot
3 models, 6 looks, 6 hours of shooting, 767 images. Super successful shoot. Ton of awesome images. Images are coming soon.

Before and After: Changing Background style and color
Boring gray background??? Spice it up! Make it more interesting and more colorful by using brushes and Selective Color adjustment layer.

Before and After: Skin texture tips
Here is another image that I've shot the other day. This was shot outdoors, using only beauty dish and a reflector. Simplicity is the key.
