Hey everyone,
I've been getting more into learning retouching techniques lately, been scouring Youtube for videos and have learned the basics. I'm still having trouble taking my images to the next level.
I was looking into this tutorial from Michael Woloszynowicz:
http://www.vibrantshot.com/portrait-beauty-retouching-tutorials/
I can't seem to find any reviews on it though. I don't mind spending the money, but wanted to see if other people had experience with it and would recommend it or not. Any pointers would be great. Thanks!
Hey Raj,
I have the entire tutorial and I can completely recommend it. It is INCREDIBLY thorough. I dont think there is a single question that goes unanswered. Michaels presentation is spot on as well.
It is honestly a great way to see how things are done first hand, and to see the thought process behind it. You'll see a variety of lighting examples, and as your experience grows, you will use those same examples as building blocks to evolve your own more complex versions.
The retouching portion is also quite incredible. I mean really, you are learning from one of the best retouchers as far as I'm concerned. Michael is incredibly technical and proficient in Photoshop.
So honestly, you cant go wrong.
I recommend. He's a good photographer and retoucher with a very natural look. He never over lights his subjects or over retouches his images! He teaches a solid Photoshop workflow with a few actions include for d&b and frequency separation.
