Hi!
I know I know, you maybe think I dont chop enough often... that's not true... I'm chopping all the time!
That's the problem, that's why I dont have enough time for PSC.
I said on another thread (great work part 2 (arg !)) that I'll show & share some work I made recently for different advertising agencies...
better than nothing! I still dont have a website... coming soon...

This one, the designer (the photographer himself) found the right model for his concept. We tried to give the impression she was from other space... human but mysterious... kind of! She has the look for it. I had to clean and take off the freckles, to modified a bit some shapes & to make her a bit taller and to clean up the background. We made 3 different images for 3 pages, a self-promotion for a design magazine...

This work was for the local major cable company. The concept was about the new trio services offer (cable-internet-phone).
I had to transform the same guy in a fat & small, tall & thin, and the middle one... that was funny...

Now a night club ad. Every couples were shot separately, the photographer modified the light setting few times to make the impression the people pop up. It makes a great contrast with the background. I had to make a huge clean up of everything, working on light & shadows.
Here's before & after...

I retouched few pictures of Sydney Crosby from the Pittsburgh Penguins for Reebok. Another before / after...

And the last one, it was for a Montréal & Québec Restaurants guide, the Guide Resto Voir. It was great to mix the wolf hair to the skin.
I made only the wolf-man...



Before...


After...

like it are you single

bloddy hell fire, that is some work right there Claf, superb, really great visuals. The detail on the last one is a joy. Brilliant

Close-ups...




Hope you like it!

I really like your work on all of these... just one question on the cable guy, did you have many pictures with diff poses or did you just use one pic/pose.

hey, where have the close ups gone from the wolf, who stole them, come on admit it

I hope there were many pictures, otherwise your more than a genius Claf, your some kind of Gandalf type magical wizard....

oh and theres the close ups, all is right with the world again

Very Cool!!!!

Usually the professional photographer's taking a lot of pictures of so many angles, expressions etc. After that the client decide which pictures they like and after that my work starts.

and how

OK well getting paid to chop is a good enough reason to not be chopping here...Awesome work Claf!

Thanks marco!
