Fall Model Shoot

Dr T

I recently went up Hobble Creek with a lovely model Ashtyn Mackey. We had a lot of fun, she was super fun and laided back and knew how to take direction. *She even climbed on a crazy model pile in the middle of the river. We had some great times.

Check out the whole gallery <a href="http://torstenbangerter.smugmug.com/Models/Ashtyn-Hobble-Creek-Canyon/14509202_Gd7Tk">here</a&gt;

Thanks,
Torsten

Well it sounds like you had fun but most of your processing here is a bit odd, especially on the skin tones where it's most important.
The B&W is fantastic btw but on the third image her skin tones are over-saturated leaning towards the magentas.
On four and five it looks like focus is off where most needed (eyes)
Six and eight, the sunlight on her face does not work at all.....
Curious, are shooting raw?
I had similar issues with raw and skin tones and I switched to neutral picture control which fixed it....

anonymouscuban

I completely agree with Rey.

Yeah, that direct sunlight on her face is not doing you any favors. Try getting her into diffused shade (you did on a couple of shots and those worked) or even better, use the sun as a rim light and use a reflector or fill flash to fill in the shadows.

Dr T

Thank for your comments everyone.
I will try to use the sun a rim light and see how that works.
I was shooting in RAW, I'll have to work on the processing

I just viewed your thread with the beautiful football model.
You seem to be more comfortable in a studio environment...
I was going to suggest having your display calibrated if hasn't been but viewing those, I don't think that's the issue here.....

Looks like most of your exposures were off and you tried to save them but went too far. Neat gal with some great ideas going on.
