[Visual Description at bottom of post.]
This photo is over 10 years old. 2014. A self portrait. I had a lot of acne at this stage of my life. A new set of very weak constant soft boxes (that I still use, just pulled them out for headshots to give the light a little bump at a space 🤘). A piece of fabric I bought from JoAnn’s.
My point? A couple things.
The photo has aged just fine output quality wise. I tossed the RAW into Photoshop, ran my usual noise correction, gave my skin a little smooth job, color boost, and here we are.
Make sure to get in front of the camera as well as behind it. I look back fondly at the exploration here and it made me a better photographer.
