Before & After
First of all, this photo is a self portrait (armado aos cágados).
It was shot with a Nikon D3200, Tamron 17-50, and one flash unit and yongnuo flash triggers. (The best my money can buy... ahaha).
The photo was edited using a bunch of techniques in Photoshop:
1st - Cleaned the background using curves, dodge and burning tools to make a mask (notice the hair);
2nd - Cleaned the face, using frequency separation (it works like the high pass filter), clone tool and patch tools;
3rd - Brightened the eyes, painting freely around the eyes using light colors and blured them at the end;
4th - Took care of the wrinkles in the clothes, combining the spot healing brush with the patch tool;
5th - Last but not least, used dodge and burning tools and a fill layer with 50% grey.
PHLEARN - Big HUG - if you want to learn too, go and watch the videos on youtube.
