In this video I share how I create a color saturated beauty image, plus I’ll share the steps I used to create the best and most accurate color results.
I think about color long before I step foot in the studio. When creating an image with color as one of the most important elements of impact, I consider the color of the light, the background, the makeup, the styling - all of these have to work together for a successful image.
Every color, every hue is done on purpose.
Once in the studio to make sure I am working accurate colors throughout the entire process. To get me started on the right foot, I use an X-Rite ColorChecker Passport II to give me correct white balance and a custom camera/lens profile.
Another important part of my process is making sure I have consistent colors across devices and one way to ensure this throughout is by calibrating my monitors. I use the i1 Display Studio across all of my devices.
Let's take a look at the details of the shoot:
👉Light 1: The main light has a 5 degree grid which creates a tight area of illumination on the face.
👉Light 2: Next I light the background with a zoom reflector an a purple gel which helps to unite the color of the headpiece with the background.
👉Light 3: I felt that the headpiece was falling a little bit too into darkness so I decided to add a 3rd light (with a grid) to help separate the headpiece from the background.
👉Light 4: I added a zoom reflector with a blue gel. This light is mean’t to add color to the shadows and really fill the image with saturated color!

This is something I haven't been doing with my shoots. After watching this yesterday, I ordered the color checker passport and the i1 display studio. I'm excited to see the difference in my future sessions! Great info!

Merry Christmas Lindsey, maybe you'll be under my tree christmas morning ;-)
My go-to lens is the Nikkor 24-120 mm. I've been using ON1 Photo Raw more than Photoshop, but ON1 has issues. AI isn't consistent, among other things. I do a lot of compositing, and ON1 is faster than Ps., but it more often than not doesn't work well.
do you use the color checker for everytime you shoot, and change lights?
If I need accurate skin tone, then yes
What software do you prefer for tethering? No issues with Catalina 10.15.2 and Canon tethering?
CaptureOne. No issues!
OMG is Annie Vanrickley?
Can you do a beauty shoot using continuous led lights ? I really want to get into beauty but there’s very little videos using constant lights it’s all I have at the moment
You can but it can be more challenging. The power might not be enough and the modifier selection isn't as great. You typically have to keep the lights very close as well. I would experiment and look into purchasing inexpensive constant lights and see what you can achieve first and if you like them.
I have 2 Godox sl60w in my mind I’m thinking of trying a glow beauty dish and a 48 inch deep parabolic
@@mystahgerri8178 did you try this set up? I wonder
I have got to get a color checker, once the price is more affordable.
Charles Rollins It feels expensive until you get it. Then it feels like the best $120 you've ever spent. It's like it breathes new life into your expensive camera.
