[Need Help] Specific photo effect, how to make it?

[metax047]

Hello there guys,and i'm going straight to my question : How can I make effect which are in picture below. (blurry image, and soft colors i guess, I can't even describe it correctly. )

and this is original image

and yes.. sorry for my bad language.

The image has had a re-touch...

Unfortunately there is no quick fix, not as far as I know anyway.

Color temp, using layers, blur,sharpening and, and TAT in RAW. The second image is a lot warmer.

Actually, a few adjustments in ACR or LR will get you very close. See below. To get it even closer would take a bit more tweaking, particularly in the hair, but this should get you started.

It probably shouldn't take you more than a minute or two to get this look in other images once you know the general direction to go. Of course, to work, such images must be lit similarly, have a white background, similar white clothing, etc.

To help in the PP part, I saved the ACR settings as a preset and I tried to attach the xmp file to this post.

Unfortunately, the forum uploader said, "invalid file type" and stopped me me from posting it. If you are interested, send me a PM with your real email address and I'll be happy to send the xmp file to you by conventional mail. Load it into ACR or LR and you'll see exactly what I did.

HTH,

Tom M

PS - BTW, how is it that you happen to have both the original and the tweaked version, but don't know how it was done?

Zip the file, Tom.

Then upload.

Thanks, dv8. I figured that if the uploader wouldn't take one accept one type of non-image file, my xmp, it probably wouldn't take any other type.

Woo-hoo - it seems to work!

Tnx again,

Tom
