Do you shoot your subjects in HDR? Or do you use special lighting? I'd love to know.

Nop, i don't shoot for HDR post-processing. i mostly light them this way (most of the time strobs or reflectors) I try to have as more details as possible on camera (so it give a more flat RAW shot) them, boots it in photoshop. This way i dont destroyed that much my pixels.... i often shoot on camera lock: one shot for the background empty, them i shoot the model with a reflector in the frame, so i can just take the bg shot to cover the reflector. Help me to get an interresting light (who can see it on the shot Junk.food3 [link] if you click on the before verstion in the commentary) It also alowed me to choose the right expression for each models (as in the serie "Delire Ringard". After in post-prod its usally curves, saturation and some dodge and burning on empty layer on soft.light... i might made a little tutorial to show someday...
but like in the "Contraction" serie, it was mostly light! one strob with blue gelatine for the bg, 2 strip-softbox for the back light and one beauty-dish right in front, just ahead the camera.... all at the hightest power to be at f.22 or something...
Hope it help a little bit
cheers

Awesome! I'm glad you decided to share so much. It's great to see somebody NOT using HDR. I see that everywhere I go now. If you make a tutorial on this, I would definitely be very, very interested.

ok... merci.
ça sort trois fois l'an, alors c'est pas vraiment un hebdo...
je travaille pour deux hebdos de Quebecor en Abitibi, d'où ma confusion.
prochain numéro début février!
