NSPART - Fashion at the Pool with the Beautiful Nikola Weiterova IFBB Bikini Fitness competitor (Color & Black & White with Retouch Process Video) Another Steemit First Post!

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

Hello Fellow Steemians,

This is another shot from my shoot with the very Beautiful Nikola Weiterova IFBB Bikini Fitness competitor. I love working with her because we always produce such great images together.

I really like this image both color and Black & White, but I had a hard time choosing which version of the Black & White I liked best so I posted both of them. Tell me in the comments which version of the Black & White you like better. And of course check out the retouching process video to see how I improved this composition of the image and retouched it.

The location was at The Mansion Shoot I spoke about in this post https://steemit.com/photography/@nspart/nspart-photoshoot-at-usd12-000-000-dollar-home-with-5-models-nsfw-some-mild-nudity

Camera: Nikon D810
Lens: Tamron 24-70 f.28
Lighting: Natural light + Nikon Speedlight

What Goes In To My Work/Art:

For those that don't know, I spend a lot of time on all of my photos, unlike camera phone pictures, or quick snap shots. For any shoot there is model selection, planning, equipment setup, the shoot which is usually several hours where I shoot several hundred photos, then there is equipment tear down, choosing the best images which takes a couple of hours, color grading/correction, and then I spend sometimes an hour or two on a single image retouching and creating the final look, then resizing and watermarking for the web, even my Polaroids have to be scanned in, cropped, have the dust removed, resized and watermarked, so to the people that think I'm just posting a pic or two they are not seeing all of the work that goes into that picture they are looking at.

With advanced photo-manipulation and composites that can add many more hours of work. And what also makes these images possible is the years I have spent learning my craft, the $10,000+ in equipment + the Studio I was paying for that sadly I no longer have, and the model and Makeup Artist (when I use one) are either paid or get additional pictures which means more work for me, none of this is cheap or free it's a lot of work that I do because I love creating beautiful images.

I added this to my posts because it seems that people no longer value professional photography or understand what goes into it regarding, time, expense, etc... And some feel a camera phone picture of a ham sandwich or a selfie has equal value regardless of the difference in production time and cost. Almost every professional photographer I know has been adversely affected by the devaluation of professional photography due to mass proliferation of camera phones and the perception that all photos are created equally, so I try my best to educate people on what goes into what we do.

Keep capturing :) Don't let go ;)

I really like the second B&W photo, seems more subtle than the the first one!

Great work...you really did great here @nspart
Keep it up mate ..

Great pictures, but one "but", why is this retouching necessary. This is one hell of a beautifull woman and so what if she has some spots on her hand... That just makes her human. I would love it if everyone would stop with that cleaning up pictures and retouching, etc... For me a real picture from a beautiful woman is worth 100 times more than one with even the slightest touch of photoshop. Just my humble opinion...

Because this MY ART. I don't take pictures I create Pictures. I see perfection NOT reality. I see the beauty in my models and see past their flaws and then make sure everyone else can see what I see in MY ART. I love photoshop! Feel free to take your own picture without using it.

So we can agree to disagree.

Well, you explained that pretty well. I understand that it's your art, so my apologies to you... I just want to make clear that women don't need to clean up the pictures of theirselves, they are beautiful just the way they are

Lovely post and stunning girl, welcome to the community mate.

I have seen 2 or 3 of your posts and they are actually very good and of good quality. Upvoted you 100% and followed you. Cheers and have a great week 👍
