Learning New Skills

Some time ago I purchased a chroma green background for use for some of my portrait shots. The plan was to shoot using the green screen and then move the subjects into different backgrounds easily. In theory it sounds easy but I have since learnt that it is not. Firstly the background needs to be lit correctly to create distance between the subject and the background. I failed to do this on my first attempt due to lact of space and at the time I really didn't give it much thought. The outcome was a lot of stunning images of some beautiful ladies that all had a green reflection through them that I couldn't separate. Most frustrating.

I hate to fail at anything and these photos really bugged me. So I have been busy searching for way to fix them without needing a diploma or degree to achieve the desired outcome. I am not totally there yet but as you can see from these two images, I think I am well on the way. There is still a hint of green in the book but otherwise I think I have acceptable images. It helps having such a beautiful model!
