Hi All,

Recently I saw works of amazing photographer - https://www.behance.net/marekmicanek

My fav shot is the Vogue Portugal editorial: https://www.behance.net/gallery/64231195/VOGUE-PORTUGAL

Any guesses about the postproduction there? Some analog film styles for Capture One?

From the second link you posted, I see that there are many images with strong dominants of green. These are clearly intended shades. Curve or grading map in photoshop, but other ways too in Capture one or camera raw or other. No complicated  editing.in this case. Maybe some preset too.

For all retouching related first you gonna need similar pictures, look for photographers doing editorials focused on storytelling, ask for collabs. Feed your eye with magazines and editorials all over internet, I'm glad this is trendy right now: more natural, focused on color, mood, whole composition and content.
Regarding PS you may wanna use film styles, camera calibration, noise, curves.

Learn more about color and you'll see big improvements in your work.
