Hi everyone!
I have been shooting nightclubs for a while, yet have been unable to master my color settings. it has been quite perturbing for me because there are other nightclub photographers in seattle who have really spectacular colors in their photos.
Here is an example of mine:
I feel that it is way over saturated, the skin tones are not as nice, and it distracts from having a good picture.
Here is an example of what I wish it was:
The skin tones are much nicer, not distracting, and yet the background is still very colorful. It looks more 'lifelike'.
We both shoot raw and with nikon (I with a d700 and he with a d90) what could I do to make the colors more attractive like his? I've messed with vivid, neutral, etc, but after about a year of practicing still have less attractive color in my photos. Is it something post processed? or in the camera? Do you guys have any ideas or suggestions? I am open to any comments! I appreciate you for taking the time to read my post. Thanks in advance!
