Opinions on Skin Tone

Albert Dickson

I would love to hear any opinions on the skin tones in this image. She had been working out and was a bit warm to begin with. I am curious to see what thoughts ya'll might have about this and how the skin contrasts against the cool blue of the wall. Thanks so much.

Hm, in my opinion she's too red ... I'd ad a bit yellow .... and maybe just desaturate her a little bit ..

Thanks for your input. Here is another form the same shoot. Perhaps this is better. The shoot was designed to be concerted to B&W and worked well for that.

Try doing a color click on her black outfit and it might help the skin tones or even try several places on the wall what might be grey.

If that's the true color that's fine but it just doesn't look good on the first one. B&W conversions are a great option....

Rey,
Perhaps this is more true. Do you find this to be better? And you are right, the B&W conversions from this shoot were killer.

Color correct the red and add a little of yellow as other have said.

I would turn down the red, orange and yellow. In LR if you use it, it will balance it for you with the color picker.

Thanks all. I appreciate the input.
