Stefaniya Headshots

Bilsen

Spent Saturday at another one of PashaPhotos' massive shootouts with his crew of incredible Russians. One of the most gorgeous women I've ever seen is Stefaniya.


I KNOW some of you don't like ringlights but I do so just bear with me on that. I ran these headshots through Imagenomic Portraiture and that is one impressive bit of software. Literally one click to get these images done (other than color correcting the flourescent ringlight).


and now -- Stefaniya

Went back to RAW and redid them, toning down the hotspots on a layer and then using Portraiture on a new layer as Bobby suggested. Really pretty easy (or lazy).

Couldn't agree more Foques. One of the most beautiful women I've ever seen and I work with a bunch or pretty women.

Thanks Hack.

Great set. Wonderful subject too.

Foques

Hey John, what was your light set up for these?

Bilsen

Thanks TinStafl.

Foques - one round 2' ringlight with a florescent tube in it. Shaped like a donut with a 1 foot hole to shoot through.
The only real trick is positioning the model so the rignglight encircles her pupil instead of cutting through it.
It also doesn't hurt to have Stefaniya on the other side of it.

Foques

do you have a link to the ringlight you're talking about?

It was a DIY by the studio but, after a quick search, this is pretty much what it looked like.

Foques
