Whiskers and Tails Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Hi there! This is the first time I am posting something, so I hope I am doing it right. I am wondering how my favourite photographer achieves her style. I think I have a bit of a similar photo: Hers: https://www.facebook.com/purrpaws.fotografie.Natalie.Grosse/photos/a.1526934590965730.1073741829.1526927830966406/2037021246623726/?type=3&theater mine: in attach I see some lovely color correction and dodging and burning, but don't know how to get it quite right... Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Whoa. Danger! Danger! We'll get to the editing, I promise. But first we have to fix a CATASTROPHIC problem with your file. Please follow this troubleshooter all the way to its conclusion, then post your photo again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskers and Tails Posted April 25, 2018 Author Share Posted April 25, 2018 I think this should be ok now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Yes, that's good now. Please don't let that happen again. I can't tell you how bad it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 There's really not much needed to make your photo into the other photo. Just some more saturation for the background, and less for the foreground. Download PSD Of course it's more effective on Natalie's photo, because she has some other colours (such as the blue fence) to work with. So please feel free to post some more photos of your own, with perhaps a bit more detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien Symonds Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 I'm worried about your white balance on this one. How sure are you of its accuracy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiskers and Tails Posted April 27, 2018 Author Share Posted April 27, 2018 Yes, sorry! I like that! It seems to be a lot of playing with hue/saturation to get Nathalie's style Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien Symonds Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I'm running on very slow farm internet at the moment, so I had to shrink the file quite a bit to get it up. Still, you'll get the idea. Download PSD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
