Test shoot retouch collaboration

Hello, world! Recently I’ve collaborated with a talented London-based photographer Agata Preyss.

The most challenging was the second image, because I had to reshape the face (partially). The area between the eye, eyebrow and the hair looked too flat – check the before/after.

I solved the problem by adding the shadows and highlights with the dodge&burn technique.

This must be done properly in terms of anatomy, not just random painting. So, I had to google a number of skulls, art sketches, anatomy and drawing manuals. I’m absolutely happy with the final result and the new collaboration!
