western_isles Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 <p>Initially I would say small aperture for a shallow depth of field. Then Photoshop edited. Some lightening of skin tones of model on road and some colour enhancements.</p> <p>A similar look can be achieved using film. Fuji Velvia E6 film and Polariser with 81A warm up filter and standard processing. Maybe some tweaking in Photoshop at the final edit.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCL Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 <p>Many contre-jour shots, fill lighting, enhanced orange tones, enhanced saturation.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lex_jenkins Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 <p>Many of those photos appeared to have been hamfisted edits of small web sized JPEGs of photos made by Lisa Holloway. They're not a good representation of her work. The copies of copies are mushy, lacking in finesse, and inferior to the photographer's own originals.</p> <p>Drag and drop those samples into any Google Image Search box and you'll find the original sources. In some cases the photographers discuss their techniques.</p> <p>Or Google around for "lifestyle photography portrait actions" and similar terms. There are lots of tutorials on accomplishing these effects in Photoshop, Lightroom and other editors.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lex_jenkins Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 <blockquote> <p>"Is this spam for the site where those photos are posted?"</p> </blockquote> <p>It doesn't appear to be. The photo host site is just an alternative to Imgur, Photobucket, etc. Fairly commonly used, although some sites block that particular host.</p> <p>There's no direct link to the original photographer, so it's not spam/SEO for her either. It appears to be a bunch of small web sized JPEGs someone lifted, re-edited (badly in some cases) and used to demonstrate their Photoshop actions or perhaps as an exercise, who knows.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brett_w. Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 <p>yes, those are photos by Lisa Holloway, do a google search. <br> She is active on a couple of photography forums, Fred Miranda and POTN (Photography on the Net), not sure about here. In some of the "people" section threads she shows a before and after image and explains her processing style and Photoshop techniques and equipment used - quite useful</p> <p> </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bare_footdubai Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 <p>I think the photo is edited in Photoshop or some kind of same photography editing software</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
