What You’ll Learn

Raw File and Actions included

  • Learn about the mindset and influencing factors that spurred the ideas of the shoot and the styling! We’ve got so many inspirations!
  • I’ll be showing you a number of images from the shoot and discussing each in the series, so you can begin to build an idea of what I look for and how I change to different lenses for varying end results
  • Learn how the different compositions can affect the DOF
  • I’ll be showing you through the viewfinder as well as behind-the-scenes views, so you can clearly understand the light patterns and how I achieved them in two different scenarios of the shoot
  • You’ll understand the camera settings and different lenses used in the shoot
  • Using the new masking tools in Lightroom to edit our background luminance and saturation independently
  • We then head into Photoshop to identify and clear up distracting elements and color,s with emphasis on the macro-details
  • Using D&B to create shape and dimension
  • Using the glow action for the final magic touch!

    Taking lots of notes as I learn Daniel’s methods. Appreciate the thoroughness and explanation of his thought process. The more of these tutorials I watch, the more things are starting to sink in and click for me. Thank you for another excellent tutorial!
