I had a great shooting today in the studio. Very charming und with lots of appeal:

Pam, I wonder how you did it. The red light -no pun intended- comes from both sides. You used a reflector to throw in some red light from the oposite side?

I had one red gel on the hair light and one on the background light which also partly lit the right side.
Then I adjusted skin tones (which were too red) to my likings.

Very nice indeed. This dreamy softness makes it special, did you soften the picture in PP?

Thanks and kindest regards,

Yes, there are many ways of creating "glow" or soft light. I did some of that and then add some blur to smoothe skin pores (not too much, though).

Thank you, Stany. I was not happy with the images, though. The AF was way off (front focus) and the S5´s resolution doesn´t cut it any more.
I feel 12 Mpix to be the minimum of resolution to use in studio shootings.

I must admit I´m a sloppy lighter, too. I guess this time I was just lucky ;)
