Thought i would take a moment and post my workflow for a recent shot i did. Please check out the entire project here.
Breed watches Photography and copy on Behance
Here is the finished piece.
First some snapshots of the lighting
Notice all the white cards, and reflector. Im lighting it with strip boxes that are positioned to the left and rear of the subject. the cards and reflectors work as fillers to distribute the light more evenly. They also get rid of unwanted black blotches in the steel.
I focused stacked this shot so more than one shot was used. I also borrowed pieces of different shots with the cards in different places to get the best looking face and steel possible. Here are the images i used.
I then added a ostrich leather background that was shot separately.
blended it, and removed the pin.
Then just some final touches.
