Freebie

I've missed writing posts!

Reaching 500 fans of my Facebook page, I decided to start answering some of the questions I usually receive in my inbox. One of the most often ones is about the process of retouching my images and colour correction when shooting on location.

I love shooting with natural light! But I've always feared the sun and the harsh mid-day light. So the best thing to do when you want to give your images a summer vibe with loads of yellow/red light is to shoot close to the sunset. The light gets softer and you can still achieve a glowing effect.

During my trip to Romania I really wanted to do a photo shoot by the seaside. The images turned out to be great, loved my team, got in the water, enjoyed the session. Was so excited when I got home, couldn't wait to download the images, but the result made me a bit scared again. Not because I thought they've turned out overexposed, but the colours were really intense and not doing any justice to the great tan the model had.

So I've created an action which you can alter and change to suit your image. To use this action you should have already done the basic retouching the photo needed (including skin, hair and highlights). If you have any questions, please comment below.

The action will be available for download for the next 7 days. After that it will be deleted and available on request.
