Lighting on this image?
Love the lighting on this for something different, can anyone tell me how to achieve the same result? The model seems to have left MM and took down her port,so I can't find out who the photographer is https://www.modelmayhem.com/contests/po … iew/710478 Dec 08 18 04:33 am Link It looks like someone used Lightroom and highlighted the model with a brush with a high white setting and a slight feather. Can be done other ways and with other programs too.

Then accidentally forget to turn on the light source, take your shot, import the photo to your workstation and try to bring back the model in Photoshop using a soft edged brush and whatever your favourite method of increasing exposure is Dec 08 18 05:35 am Link HV images wrote: Totally agree with most of what's been said. There's a few different techniques to get that type of look, but it's definitely (and obvious to the trained eye) that it was done in post production and not with on scene lighting. Dec 08 18 05:42 am Link Well you either do it in Lightroom or you could take your main light, use the barn doors on it to narrow down the light and set the power output about 3 stops higher than your fill lights.

Possibly a shot when the strobe didn't fire and the "artist, felt they had something they liked. Dec 08 18 03:19 pm Link Underexposed. Exposure pushed in post so the highlights are going past blown and the edges are solarized. Could be done any of the above ways, but not without post. Pushed more and the whole image would be solarized. Masking and a brush could have been used to control where the effect appeared. Dec 08 18 03:52 pm Link SayCheeZ! wrote: yes and yes and YES. Dec 08 18 04:21 pm Link Thanks everyone! Dec 09 18 01:05 pm Link I was thinking about this and I think you could actually do the effect in camera if the model would hold very still by using a pin-spot and using a light painting technique. I don't know why you would, it looks weird and unnatural to me, but thats why Baskin Robbins has 31 flavors/ Dec 09 18 02:17 pm Link Studio NSFW wrote: you need CC to use baskin-robbins. not compatible with CS6 Dec 10 18 11:33 am Link Seriously? Please tell me this is a joke? Its as awaful as can be. Its a badly shot image with a light of some kind, at her chest and face, probably something like a worklight. Its then had some really terrible photoshop work applied to it. Nothing skilled about it at all. If I wanted to butcher images like this, its about 10 seconds work, some awful over dodging andthen chuck on a couple of filters.
