Rap Group Portraits

[Corey Jenkins]

I've worked with Troop 41 (rap group) a few times. They contacted me recently wanting to put together a shoot for their next single cover and for a clothing company that wanted some photos wearing their apparel. Let me know what you think! Lighting was pretty simple, 3 lights and the sun.

Really good work. Loving the Highlights and Shadows. Im guessing post dodge and burn? Great work and Great location. Keep it up

[Nick Saglimbeni]

Nice work, Corey! I can see your shoots are starting to get bigger and bigger! Watch out world.

Love the color and the crushed contrast. It's a hot look.

[Corey Jenkins]

Appreciate it guys! Yes, I used a lot of dodging and burning to achieve the look especially with the relatively simple lighting set up (usually have a few more lights) Also a couple contrast masks and sharping tricks. Let me know if you have any other questions!
