She is softhearted, kind and has a gentle soul. She is beautiful and a friend. I knew when my friend Arianne put her outfit on that these pics were going to be amazing, but I didn’t know that the theme would turn into soft and muted colors that capture her beauty even more.
Arianne is a great friend of mine with whom I had the pleasure to work for a few years ago when I was a personal trainer . She is the owner to an amazing personal training studio in Wilmington Delaware, but her job definitely does not define who she is. She is all together a wonderful and lovely person and someone I am proud to call my friend. And not to mention, she is a blast to work with!
This photo shoot was very easy for me. I kept screaming out things like, “Oh yay! That is beautiful” and “you’re a natural!” and she laughed at my dorky-ness – which made it even more easy to capture all these great shots. When I came home and uploaded the pictures, I knew instantly what I wanted the theme to be. I wanted the colors to be soft and muted and make everything about her pop off the screen. I ended up turning the whole bridge scene into soft and muted colors. I am normally a very bright colors and high contrast person, but this wouldn’t have captured Arianne’s personality and “look” to what it truly is: gentle beauty.
To edit these, I decreased the saturation and clarity in Photoshop raw conversion program and then I also added a very soft pink texture that I purchased from this website. After I applied the texture to the way I wanted it, I sharpened some colors that I wanted to pop a little more.
It is all about what style and theme you want to portray. This style may not be for everyone, but I love it!
I didn’t add a texture to the picture below, but kept the colors and clarity a little softer than the original pic SOOC (straight out of the camera).
