Beth is a long term friend of mine and is a marine biologist, and does modelling on the side, she invited down to the barbarian back home to do a shoot with her and another photographer named Alan Lock-heart.
Beth has been a model for a few years now is pretty good at it, she’s even ran for calendar girls in Plymouth two years running and plans to enter again this year .
for the venue we went to Jumping Jacks, a bar where one of my friends during the day, this was convenient as the bar was empty allowing us take full advantage of the space.
in the bar there are one over head led lights that can change colors by using a remote, they was helpful as it allows us control the lighting needed for the shoot, starting with a off purple or violate. this lighting was really hard to shoot in because it altered the visual apparel of the subject and surrounding. in Photoshop i was able to try and correct this by removing some of the magenta slider and adding a hint of green to balance the photo
after this is done, i need to balance out the photo and add a small amount of yellow to that she isn’t just an off green colour, to this i also bright down the highlights and whites in the photo to allow her to pop more, rather than being washed out by the over powered lights reflecting off the wall
