Fix Shiny Skin with Affinity Photo

[@paulreid7761]

Thanks Scott. Best explanation of Frequency Separation that I've come across. I get it!

[@ScottWilliamsPhotography]

Cheers Paul. You should check out my other video on frequency separation. th-cam.com/video/dKsUH02GdFg/w-d-xo.html

Fantastic Scott, just started watching your videos and I believe they are the best ones, the way you show and explain the things you are doing easy to follow. Thank You

[@ScottWilliamsPhotography]

Glad you like them!

[@whosyourbrad]

Great video and super helpful 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@ScottWilliamsPhotography]

Thank you very much. I am glad you are finding it useful😀

This seems like the proper way to do it. I remember doing a very similar process/workflow in Photoshop. This is exactly the way I remember doing it. Thanks for showing this method. Other TH-camrs do it using a very unnecessary workflow, and the results are not as good.

[@ScottWilliamsPhotography]

You are welcome.

[@william2norman]

So helpful. Really did the trick.

Do you merge all the layers in the end? How does one export the final product as a jpg?

[@ScottWilliamsPhotography]

Choose file>export

[@Dhavhal]

In thiw Video you showed three methods of reducing Shiny Skin but were the first two methods just for reference ? So you suggest the Frequency Seperation method to tackle this problem ?

[@ScottWilliamsPhotography]

The frequency separation method is superior.

[@Dhavhal]

@@ScottWilliamsPhotography I have the same problem in one of my project where I have used Black & White Adjustment Layer because the original photo had strong sunlight coming in the face so used a mask there. Now when I use the Frequency Seperation on the Low Frequency Layer it paints the shiny part with a weird colour ? I select the colour from the skin whhch I want t lo apply still it paints weird colour. What could be wrong ?

[@Espermaschine]

What about blonde hair ?

[@ScottWilliamsPhotography]

If the hair is brighter than the skin you are modifying then you would have to be careful or use a mask.

[@massawax]

Would you recommend AF over C1?

[@ScottWilliamsPhotography]

Affinity Photo and Capture One are different products. Capture One is for organisation and basic editing of image files. Affinity Photo is a full image and photo editor. If I had to choose one I would go with Affinity Photo in a heartbeat. Affinity photo is a fantastic tool that for me is comparable to Photoshop but at a fraction of the cost.

[@massawax]

@@ScottWilliamsPhotography Will have to learn a new software then. I got the trial and, so far, the UI does not seem all that friendly to the new user...
