insane. thats literally a masterclass. ive learnt about 50 new things today and i can currently implement about 5 of them. baby steps etc.... thanks for your time Ivan.

[@IvanWeiss-london]

Ha! It took me a while to get there. Watch it on replay and try them all out - see what works for you and then tweak it to your own tastes.

[@nitareed4088]

THIS!

This is truly a photo editing gem! Not only because you know your craft so well but you also have the ability to step by step explain what your doing in the process to achieve a pleasing end result. And along the way you give us useful tips e.g how to avoid eye fatigue! Brilliant! Very well done and thank you very much!

Thanks, Günther. That's very kind of you to say so. I'm really glad so many people are finding this video useful.

As a fellow commentor below said, "That's literally a masterclass."

Coming to Affinity Photo as I did only a year or so ago, I have a great deal to learn. Every new bit of knowledge helps me along the way. So many useful tools you shared today, were especially helpful because you explained how you use them. I am very grateful. Beautiful finished portrait! Thank you for the texture downloads.

[@ianjohns]

I'm a headshot photographer who is starting to dabble in table portraits, thanks to the inspirational work from Ivan. After watching this, I've now got the "bug" on learning how to hone in on a retouching style for these types of images. I'm a longtime user of another image editing application, but own Affinity Photo, Publisher, and Designer and have wanted to start making the switch to Photo (I've already gone full-time Publisher with my marketing materials, etc.) This is the swift kick I needed. Thank you for putting this brilliant photographer on your channel -- I look forward to many more of his contributions in the future. You certainly have a good ambassador in Ivan on board!

[@IvanWeiss-london]

Thanks, Ian. Making the video was a great exercise for me. But it's been even greater to hear from people who've found it useful. And you've got the time now to switch your workflow before opening the studio up to clients again.

[@southwoodsstudio2934]

Amazing work! Awesome inspiration to try something different. This series is great.

[@StevenDempseyArtist]

Ivan, it hardly needs saying at this point that your presentation was engaging, well-paced and informative. I think your willingness to share every step of the process and be open and honest about it makes this video unique. It also shows how secure you are as an artist. I’m relatively new to Affinity Photo but not new to photo editing but each piece of software has its own personality. After a year with AP, I’m still excited to launch it and see what it can do. One question about your choice of a grain overlay, I’m assuming you chose that route over adding a noise filter for aesthetic reasons? I suppose blending the grain layer and thus concealing the grain pattern will hide the fact that you probably use that same file for a lot of different portraits. Like using the same texture in many shots, I worry sometimes that the repetitiveness will be noticeable to viewers. Anyway, it’s refreshing to see someone of your caliber using and promoting Affinity Photo instead of the usual Photoshop endorsements. I encourage you to continue with these videos if you can find the time.

[@IvanWeiss-london]

It's a good point. But I would suggest that anyone looking at a portrait and noticing the specific pattern of the texture overlay is missing the point entirely. If you are concerned, you can flip the layer horizontally and/or vertically. If you are cropping to 4:5, you can use different parts of the 2:3 file. And you can certainly create more overlays of your own.

[@StevenDempseyArtist]

Ha ha, yes, it is true. What I do is create a blank middle grey document in Affinity Photo, then import into Lightroom and create a set of grain textures with differing strengths, etc. I then export those files and use them as overlays. That way, I have an endless variety to choose from or just create new ones when needed. I guess my concern was related to textures with obvious patterns that come through the image, not so much grain overlays. But yes, there are creative ways to mix it up. Thanks for the reply.

[@phlotographer]

AP certainly offers a lot of options for editing. I just found this tutorial but have stored many links for tutorials created by a number of different creators related to AP. There are a few things that I find difficult related to the basic posing and lighting of the subject. Getting rid of lighting first, I just find the large and strong specular highlight on the forehead to attract the eye that I don't find the mask of the face without searching. Another interesting thing to do with an image to see where the eye goes is to not only rotate from one side direction to the other but also turn the image upside down. Then also, close the eyes or if you have a print (I know, old technology) and quickly open the eyes and see where you look first. This is the easiest fix whereas the next two have to be done prior to shutter release. First is the placement of the arms. To my eyesight the arms seem to be pulled toward the middle of the body creating a scrunched look to the subject and I do understand it is difficult to see this when doing a self portrait. When spread more, there is also some separation between the arms and the body. Secondly, when closing the hand, it is nicer to have a view that the fingers do not appear to be amputated. When dealing with a subject which is not yourself, try using either hand and allow the fingers to flow showing more finger of each until the index finger is most prominent (don't do this with the middle finger lol) with a bend in the wrist and the hand on a 45 degree angle. In the portrait here, the face is so incredible with the beard and the eyes are so penetrating, the image at the beginning of the video would be my selection of the cropping which also gets rid of the other issues. Not many subjects of this quality come along once in a lifetime. Hopefully someone might find this bit of info of value. I will poke around and find more videos by you Ivan. TIA

[@IvanWeiss-london]

Thanks for sharing your opinion.

Ivan is a wizard! Thank you!

[@Kim_Miller]

Thank you for a wonderful tutorial. I see portraits like your edited version and am at a total loss to understand how to get there. This has been very helpful. My camera club has an extra competition for this month where we download a raw portrait and edit it, then submit the edit into the comp. The original is a disaster, it's a landscape snapshot from a tropical holiday where the person is lit from behind by strong sunshine and the background is close, cluttered and dominant. Now that I've watched your video I'm starting to get some idea of how to edit it, although I can see a few more sessions watching you until I understand what it all does. Thank you again. I'm enjoying these expert videos.

[@IvanWeiss-london]

Good luck for the competition, Kim!

Of course, I am going to dig deeper into this so I can get the best out of these lessons. Amazing content, great programs. Thank you, Affinity.

My apologies, Jules. View>Studio>Assets. You can place it wherever is most convenient for you. Note that you have to add your own assets, so only worth doing for things you use frequently. Alternatively, you can just drag and drop an image from your file browser. Frequency Separation can be found under Filters>Frequency Separation.
