πŸ’‘Lighting

This was a relatively straight forward 2 light setup consisting of a beauty dish and grid as the main light and a 10 degree grid on the background for separation.

πŸ–Œ Post Processing

In post-processing, I primarily focused on enhancing the image's overall look and feel. This involved adjusting color grading to unify skin tones and background hues, tweaking clarity to emphasize texture, and refining shadows and highlights for depth and dimension. Additionally, I utilized retouching techniques to clean up minor imperfections, such as stray hairs and clumped powder, ensuring a polished final result.
