Can anyone here hook me up with the Portraiture plug-in for Cs5?
Oh... I have a PC if that matters, which it probably does.
I know, I know... Windows, Canon, Android phone. I'm doing all the wrong things as far as the creative field goes

If I'm not mistaken, most PS plugins are cross platform.
I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for, but I just bought some actions from "Greater Than Gatsby" that do some pretty cool stuff.

Welcome - Greater Than Gatsby - Greater Than Gatsby | Professional Photoshop Actions

Yeah, I've seen their actions (as well as many others) advertised all over Fb.
Some of them are okay, but most of them look like Instagram filters to me and they don't actually do any real retouching of skin unless you count reducing the clarity and blowing out the highlights.

A friend of mine showed me this over the weekend:
Portraiture - Retouching Plugin for Adobe Photoshop, Photoshop Lightroom and Apple Aperture
She was gonna hook me up but then told me her Mac version wouldn't work on my computer.
I've gotten much better with my skin retouching using layers, but if there's a shortcut...

It's neat, but you can achieve better results with the split frequency technique. There are a few tutorials on YouTube. It basically splits the color and texture to produce smoother, more natural result instead of a uniform skin tone or texture.

Yup, frequency separation is what I'm doing now. :-)

Alright, time to sub and learn.

Pintsize725 · 05-17-2013, 12:05 AM

Mine, open for critique. I'm using a T3 with the stock lens and am a noob to manual mode.

I was advised to get a 50mm 2.8 prime to practice composition. Any advice?
