In this case, we choose a yellow hue of 46 and saturate to around 20.ĥ.) We can now fine tune the colors in the HSL. Since we have skintones that lie somewhere between purple and blue on the bottom half of the wheel, we need to pick a color around the same spot on the top half of the wheel. If you look at a color wheel, we want to get an orange somewhere on the middle right of the wheel.

If you remember your color theory, we need to mix in a color with the blue/purple in the skin to make reddish orange. When you're done, your image is going to look very blue in the shadows with skintones that are cool and slightly purple.Ĥ.) Next we split tone to get that reddish bronze in the skin. Your highlights are going to be close to neutral, but I brought out a slight blue/green tint to them since the highlights in the image aren't exactly rosy. If you look at the histogram on the original image, the photographer raised the black point on the red curve to really get a lot of blue and green in the blacks. Remember, there's blue and green in the blacks/shadows and midtones, so make sure points in those ranges are higher than your red curve.
In the individual channels, you're going to create slight s-curves. I didn't do this, but you can also lower the white point to fade your highlights. The higher you raise the bottom of the stick, the more faded your picture will look. The RGB is going to have a hockey stick curve with the black point raised. I desaturated the greens to get a good base of saturated red and blue in the skintones.ģ.) Create your curves. Play with the balance to get your skintones looking natural (not too red, not too green). Saturate both, and then push the greens toward the right and desaturate. You can come back to the other adjustments once all the final color adjustments have been made.Ģ.) In camera calibration, push the reds towards the right, blues to the left. It's not perfectly exact, but it'll give you a good understanding for getting this kind of look.ġ.) In your basic adjustments, desaturate your image to around -45. This is a quick rundown on an image with not all of the colors of the original (credit: ). One way to get this kind of desaturated look with rich reddish bronze skintones is to tone your image so that it's blueish and then add in the brown with split toning. The orange/red tones have this cool blue underneath them.
You can see this when you look at the skin. There's a lot of blue and green in the shadows and midtones, and red in the highlights. If you look at the histogram you can see what's going on with the different channels. This subreddit is mostly night mode compatible There are various places around the web you can use to host RAW files. No piracy related posts (asking for presets, trading presets, offering presets, etc.) NSFW images that are not tagged will be removed. We'd like to keep this subreddit for serious discussion only. No joke posts, memes, or rage comics, please. If several minutes have passed and your submission does not appear under NEW, try messaging the moderators, it was probably stopped by the spam filter.

r/postprocessing is for help with editing your photo, linking to information about post processing, and sharing tips with the community. This is not the place to show off your photos. This will let the OP see how they can better edit their pictures. When you make adjustments to a photo, include the steps you took or take a screenshot of your settings. The JPEG will let us preview your shot without downloading it, and the RAW will allow us to edit it more effectively. When you submit a photo, be sure to include both a JPEG and RAW file (if available). Simply asking for others to edit your photo for you, without putting in the effort to make an attempt yourself will result in your post being removed. When asking for help editing one of your photos, you must also include your attempt. By submitting your RAW files for help, edits for critique, and questions about processing, the reddit community will be able to help you create an amazing final photo.
