Instead of unpacking my suitcase and folding my laundry I decided to post-process another portrait of mine from my photo shoot with Wilnelia Velez.
The original photo I began with was photographed with a white backdrop in my Studio. I already had it listed as the fifth image in my "Project J" breakdown (FYI - the sixth image was previously completed and will likely surface next week).
After I did some retouching I still felt like something was missing. The image needed some graffiti kind of flavoring. I then pulled the image into Nik Software and came out with two images: one was a black & white grainy poster image you might see on a wall in the Village, the other was this uber yellow punchy in your face imagery.
When I returned to Lightroom I took the second image and decided to play with some filters. That was when I started to get closer to a color palette that to me matched the image.
I added some adobo and within time this portrait came out the oven.
Please direct your compliments to the chef.
