As a professional photographer, a huge part of my work is spent on post-production. This is not only where I engineer tones, colours and image effects in Adobe Lightroom, but also where I spend hours sometimes retouching and perfecting images in Adobe Photoshop to remove imperfections, props and tools used in the shoot, as well as layering images together when using particular lighting techniques.
Below are a set of images taken by Rob Smalley at Scene Studios in Nottingham, retouched by myself as part of a project for K-Tech Suspension.
Although Rob Smalley and his assistant Simon Bernacki did a great job of shooting the images by removing dust, wiping fingerprints and using clear wire to prop products; there was still a fair bit of work to do after the shoot to get the images where they needed to be for use on billboards, websites and social media etc
Here are some before and afters of Rob’s images I edited for K-Tech Suspension…
