Ibai Acevedo

Ibai Acevedo - Photographer for brands such as Nike, Microsoft, Tous, Evax or Mahou - will help you find your own style when taking pictures through experimentation and the transmission of evocative sensations.

To do this, he will show you step by step his work process when making a portrait playing with an unconventional lighting technique but with many creative possibilities, the phantom light.

Once the photograph is done, Ibai will detail its retouching methodology to achieve a treatment by light and color areas with an oniric aesthetic that wanders between reality and fiction.

Description

Learn to make portraits with creative lighting techniques

You will begin by getting to know the trajectory of Ibai Acevedo and some of his most outstanding works, then going into the ideas phase and finding out what inspires Ibai when making his photos.

Then Ibai will explain step by step his most representative technique, the phantom light, its possibilities and limits. You will also review the necessary and optional materials when taking pictures and, to better understand the proposed lighting scheme and the treatment by zones, you will be the witness of an Acevedo real shooting in the middle of the forest.

Finally, Ibai will teach you how to edit your photos with some key tricks such as the importance of color, the selection and development in Raw, the work in Photoshop and its final export.
