Shay LED Retouch
To celebrate Peter and Shay working together for 10 years they did shoot using 1 LED light and natural light. Peter got Shay to pick out 3 photos she loved, and then Peter used the minimal lighting to recreate the feel of the images. This is followed by a retouch with the RAW and TIFF file for you to practice with!

great inspo Daphne Groeneveld by Lachlan Bailey, very interesting shoot and thanks for posting the image to let me try out retouching for myself
No worries, thanks so much
I enjoyed this very much. It’s always interesting to see what you touch out and leave in place. I know you say you only retouch what draws your eye in a negative way so I’m wondering how do you decide what stray hairs offend you? You removed one but left in place the one that ran across Shay’s eye. That was one I took out in my retouch. Thanks for providing the files for us to work on.
Thanks heaps Stephen, glad you enjoyed it along with the file to retouch yourself. I don’t overthink it, my mind just either says I like it or it doesn’t bother me
Always enjoyable when you shoot Shay! It gets better and better every photo shoot.
Yes Shay is awesome
Listening to you talk through your retouching process is very helpful. Different images need different approaches, great to hear how you think and work through them. Thanks.
Thanks Jim, happy to hear it’s helpful & yes I treat every image individually
