Viktoriia Pt.2 (Patreon)

Viktoriia and her long braids — a photoshoot in her bedroom.

As usual, I shot all of these photos using only the available natural light. It was around noon in Barcelona, with some light cloud cover, which gave me really nice, soft, diffused light.

As with some of my other posts, I’m showing you a few different—sometimes completely different—ways to edit similar photos. Most of these are spontaneous decisions I make while working on them. I like having variety and being able to create different moods from the same set.

The possibilities with editing software these days are pretty amazing. And ever since I got the Apple Studio Display, it’s been a completely different experience. I can easily spend hours sitting in front of my photos, trying different things — and honestly, it’s just a pleasure.

BTW, in case anyone is wondering about that softness and the nice image blur in this post, and also in the previous one (someone already asked about this on Reddit), I don't use any filters or effects that manipulate depth of field; the Sigma Art 1.4 lenses do the trick, plus a bit of tweaking with the Texture slider.
