In this class:

  • Post-production tools and techniques for beauty photography

    Hi Karl, I really learning a lot from you. Especially the way how you observe images. Looking at the very fine details, understanding how to convey the right emotions through photography.
    There are so much people who cares only about gears, lighting ratios and manipulating for nothing on Photoshop all these nonsenses. But you are giving a true education! Thank you!
