Photo shoot of Troy and Mom
I used day light as the only light source, a reflector gold or silver, a mirror to bounce some light onto the wall for my brother's, a window shade to bounce some light on the side of my mom's face. 50 mm f/1.8, ISO @ 250
I am still editing but here is a hint.
I am still not happy with the color. I want to add some grain and maybe blow out a corner. I also need to touch up some spots on face, and sharpen using the highpass filter (my fav). I do like the lighting though.The hand picture is a little too grey.
I am trying to keep in mind what will look good under wax. I added a little more contrast so that it will pop better under the wax.
I bought some beeswax yesterday to try and some candle wax that has the same color as wax but much cheaper to see if it will be a good color too. and another creamier color wax.
It is funny when you scroll down on the blog you can see how influenced I am already by Sally Mann's work. Especially with my mother's pictures because I tightly cropped her face.
