Hello,
Great shots as some one who shoots mostly sports with some simple natural light portrait work on the side I am always curious what the before and after shot looks like on these types of photos. Would it be possible for you to post a before of image #4 and comment on how long it took you to process the image to the final result. I realize the final image is only as good as the original with regards to lighting,exposure, pose, etc. so obviously you have that down pat. Thank you .

Actually the ones with the blue background are straight out of the cam.
Only thing done is boosted blue and red.
And healed two little imperfections.
The light source was very soft and Corine already has a very even skin, take with that a really good MUA and there is no need to shop.
Simply put our session stopped at arround 17:00 and at 19:00 I had 19 photos on line for the model and MUA and some here.
Damn
Why do you even post images here? What kind of critique do we give! If FM was a large international corporation of photographers you would be the BIG BOSS MAN.
Nice set, i like that the skin is not over softened. I like a little texture on the skin.

Hi,
Why post ?
Simple because I still LOVE my work and also love to share.
It's that simple.
Everyone will learn from remarks made, sometimes it's the preference on a forum that is different than my own and that helps in selecting shots when it counts.
Forums are I think nowadays a very powerful tool in improving, WHATEVER level you shoot at.
These are some of the most amazing pictures you have posted here in a long time. The backgrounds in the first two are brilliant. Were they bought or made?

By sharing his photos here, we get an example of what can be done. You can examine the pics, the lighting, the poses and see what you find impressive. Imagine how they were created. One thing I pointed out earlier was the impressive background separation. That wasn't for Frank's benefit, but for those learning and wanting to do better. Backgrounds are important. Study his. Note the lighting, the lack of distractions and how the colours coordinate with the model.
Keep posting Frank. Somebody will get something out of this.
