Portrait, Before and After Photoshop

Before and after on a simple self portrait, if you want to watch how I did it, check out my previous post for a little video I recorded of the post process.

I'm not a fan of showing my bad skin but I'm also not gonna be here and only always show you when it's plastered in makeup and photoshopped to oblivion. I always want to err on the side of reality, even when creating a bit of illusion.

Shot with the Nikon D7200 and Nikkor 35mm f/1.8.

Have you considered doing something else than Photoshop?

"Before and after MS Word"
"Before and after Siemens NX 3D modeling"
"Before and after CS:GO"

Just a suggestion though.

Great ideas, but I don't use any of those! Maybe before and after Happy Meal?

... so you have a Happy Meal? Like, somewhere in the closet waiting for you?

But yes! Even if you wouldn't have a Happy Meal and you just get one, I will give an upvote for a post with "Before and after Happy Meal" :)

I would need to order a happy meal first! I'm gonna do it one some day :D

Finnish life goals.

"One day... I'll get a happy meal. But until then, I'll be without it."

No funny expressions? No imitations of animals? It seems like even you at times can be more or less normal...😝

It's a split second!

If you ever get bored of paying crazy money, there is a free and open source alternative to PhotoShop, its called RawTherapee http://rawtherapee.com/

Photoshop is only like 12€ per month, and I like the user experience, I have no need to get anything else. But maybe this is helpful for someone who can't afford the real thing :)

Yeah I realise its a major inconvenience to switch platforms..

I like your post-processing style, as I am also not a fan of highly polished photoshopped skin. But small corrections are almost always necessary.

Thank you :) I agree with you, I don't like it when some people want to show everything.

Some people want to leave a small bit of mystery by not revealing everything - that's why they choose Photoshop!

I do disagree with this, as I think small corrections are never necessary.

Usually people do want some corrections though.

But we like pretty things!

We do, but it's not like things we see as pretty are necessary.

We do, but it's not
Like things we see as pretty
Are necessary.

Hello @eveuncovered, when a woman shows herself as she is, she talks a lot about her security and that she has a well-defined personality, that's how the winners are. I've always admired that in the ladies and especially in my wife. Congratulations.
