I've been doing photography for a few years now and feel myself hitting a brick wall for improving. I'd like to think my Lightroom and Photoshop experience is fairly good but I'm lacking in the real image touch up skills that it seems others have.
Now here's the catch, I mainly do 'Cosplay' photography. I know a lot of people who do it and it's far less serious than real portrait/people photography which makes the hobby far more fun for me.
I mainly focus on portrait but looking to expand out but seem to fall back into my safety zone:
I seem to focus more on washing out colours to get a stylised effect but it feels like a cheap trick:
My gear currently is:
Nikon D7100
Sigma 24mm 1.4 ART
Sigma 105 2.8 Macro
Nikon 50mm 1.8G
I'm definitely a victim of "this lightroom filter works well, lets use it on everything"!
Any feedback is welcome, good and bad. Do your worst!
