>>2842233 That's my biggest struggle when it comes to portraiture work is capturing that emotion from somebody and portraying an idea or theme without context given to the image.
We didn't exactly have a set idea, other than get some photos of him to please his record label since all of his photos are very out dated. This is a lame excuse, but he has very little time to do anything, so we had to do it while at work, and couldn't get a grand idea and go out some where else to make the images portray something more.
>nothing to push the image to a theme or ideaI honestly wouldn't know where to start in the first place with this, even if we had a solid idea. I know my way around Photoshop decently well, but when editing photos I tend to stick with normalizing them, like how you put it, in Lightroom.
