Archived from groups: rec>photo>technique>people (more info?)

these photos are by Fadil Berisha.
I was wondering how he achieved this look in his photograph, the
models seem flawless and it seems that the photo's texture is
different, is it a filter, settings, lighting or whatever, i have some
equipment but i can't seem to achieve this look. So if there is anyone
who can help me I would really appreciate it.

-makeup
-very diffused lighting coming from a broad source. Big softboxes,
large curtained windows, etc

the more diffused the light source, the smoother the surface texture
will be. (for any subject)

Things look really smooth when downsampled to screen resolution. They are
great photos for sure in terms of lighting and composition etc, but if you
were to look at large prints of them, you would likely see a lot that you
can't on screen.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

Nothing particularly unusual there...soft light, low ratio, reflector from a
low angle.

large soft diffuse light, scene looks like a hotel lobby, so there is
probably a high and very wide wall or corner of windows, what I call semi
directional, there is possibly a scrim. A lot of new york photogs will set
up tent on a building roof that's shaded by a taller building, the tent will
overhang the model and the face will be lit from one side, the other or from
the front depending on where they hang scrims on the side.

you can do a similar effect, just open your garage door, have a subject move
back inch by inch till just where the light seems to start of fall off,
that's your sweet spot.
