hi guys, yesterday i shot some engagement portraits for friends of ours... nothing formal or paid, just wanted to get some nice shots for them as an engagement present. Used my new 50mm1.8lens which i need loads more practice with (hence lots of out of focus bits & pieces! ) Anyway, in my other thread i was asking for post-processing advice so thought posting might help...Any comments/feedback always appreciated xx:heart:
PS.. just noticed some things look over sharpened - i did this converting my RAWS, bumping the sharpening to mid-high...still have originals so will fix this later x (markc was definitely right, sharpen later! thanks x)
#1... here is the 'regrowth' dilemma!! any photoshopping ideas to help her out????? also, aperture was 1.8, leaving only front eye in focus - is this ever acceptable and if she was facing the camera directly, would both eyes then be in focus???? please excuse the oversharpened hair in this one!:blushing:
#2... in this one, just lopped off the regrowth! kinda like it though??
#3...
#4...slight curves adjustment, tried to whiten teeth and whites of eyes by lasooing and upping curves?? any better ideas????????
#6... this is my fave, that i hope to have mounted on matte board for people to sign at their engagement party ~ please help me decide on colour...
or#7, black & white...
thanks for looking xx:heart:
All of my pictures are okay to edit, so long as you promise to share your secrets!!
