Haley Prestwich – Bannack Portraits

Portraits

At Bannack Ghost Town, there were some cosplayers that came dressed up as people that would have lived in Bannack when it was a thriving town. I wanted to capture the personalities of every person that I photographed. I edited all of them in both Adobe Bridge and Photoshop. Each photo uses different lighting styles, and I put what was used next to the title.

Home Guardian – Window and Strobe Lighting
Locked and Loaded – Continuous Natural Lighting
Red Vest – Flash
Favorite Bracelet – LED Lighting
The Protector and His Wife – Strobe Lighting
A Selfless Grin – Continuous Lighting

Before and After Photo

Here is an example of before and after adding the special lighting techniques provided. It is amazing what flashes, reflectors, strobes, etc. can do to your photo.
