How to convert 'This' image to 'that' (Pictures)
This is my photo, raw with no editing: How can I get it to this (Alex Saladrigas Photo) ? http://photos-g.ak.instagram.com/hphoto … 3396_n.jpg Both photos are one light setups with vflat Oct 16 14 06:45 am Link B+W adjustment layer, reduce lightness of reds. Underneath dodge and burn, cloning. It's a quite simple process. Oct 16 14 06:56 am Link Jakov Markovic wrote: What do you mean underneath dodge and burn, cloning? As in make the color adjustment, then dodge and burn on top of that? How do you reduce lightness of reds, down on red luminosity?

He was the one that helped me pick out mine. Oct 16 14 08:10 am Link Hazem Giballi wrote: You are funny. It doesn't matter what he pick. It's blue on the picture you show.

It's blue on the picture you show. There has been no retouching done.. I changed the color temperature of the photo set and that is why. Oct 16 14 08:15 am Link See, it's blue. Oct 16 14 08:16 am Link Make you histogram matching, and then work on color luminosity. Oct 16 14 08:22 am Link Why not ask your friend? If he helped you to pick the background, maybe he will help you with retouching as well? Oct 16 14 10:29 am Link Tulack wrote: I literally just spoke to Alex Saladrigas (the photographer). He confirmed it is a dark grey background. Oct 16 14 10:48 am Link cwwmbm wrote: He is shooting a campaign in his new NYC studio. He doesn't have the time. I wouldn't have posted here if it was that easy Oct 16 14 10:48 am Link Hazem Giballi wrote: How does it related to the picture? On your picture background is blue. You can make it red or any other color. And it has nothing to do with background in his studio. We are talking about picture background, and it's blue. Oct 16 14 11:25 am Link Ah! My apologies I thought you meant what he shot it on. Yes, he told me he added 'a bluish silver tint' Miscommunication Oct 16 14 11:43 am Link Yes, you said "How do you get the background to be that grey?" and I answered , it's not grey, it's blue. Beside that, grey is just luminosity of white (or black). blacks are clipped. Whites are down. low contrast in midtones. You can see all this on histogram. Match it and you would have the same image.

That's what gives you "the look". Blue tint you can add with selective color, or curves on top of the B+W. Oct 16 14 03:40 pm Link 3 Easy Steps: 1. Do a black(foreground) and White(background) Gradient map 2. Go to curves channel and lift the blue up to the desired tone. 3. Go to Brightness and Contrast and boost the Contrast slightly.
