SUMMARY
Photographer Prince Meyson outlines a practical workflow for achieving rich, warm skin tones in portraits, applicable across various editing software. The technique emphasizes monitor calibration, correct white balance, and shooting in RAW before post-processing. Key adjustments include adding warmth and a touch of magenta to skin tones, while subtly shifting backgrounds towards green to create visual separation and enhance the subject's pop.
