may I ask how you achieved such a nice skin tone? I went to your IM posts. I have to say IM resolutions don't do justice to your pictures.
That’s really kind of you to say, thank you. I can tell you about my general process. Most of the images here were take with the Sony A7R3 and Canon 35mm 1.4L (original), though there are some other cameras and lenses. In many cases the lighting was overcast or I had a good reference for the white balance. If I can get a pleasing white balance then the rest becomes much easier. I tend to edit the individual color channels and try to get the oranges so they have a good magenta/yellow balance and don’t oversaturate. If I add saturation it’s generally to the other colors like blues and greens. I’m a big fan of the newer Adobe profiles, especially Adobe Color for portraits, though I sometimes use Huelight profiles as well. Hope that helps.
