Nalah Cosmetics – Beauty campaign in Spain
1 October 2024
As most of you know, the beauty genre is one of my absolute favorite genres as a photographer. It's that genre
Texture, colors, details, structure in absolute close up is basically what "Macro Beauty" is all about - if you're like me, your fingers tingle to be allowed to create magic with the camera.
What is macro beauty?
In my eyes, it is EVERYTHING I love about beauty photography, just very very very close. So close that you REALLY see all the details, play of colors and textures, etc.
It is in this genre that a makeup artist comes to work - because EVERYTHING is seen! That is also the whole glory of it – precisely that everything can be seen! The viewing eye really comes on a journey through the colorful and exciting landscape that the face and makeup really create.
You can choose to be very close to ONE element of the face or choose to use a section as shown here.
You must use a macro lens, as a close crop of an image shot from far away often causes quality problems with sharpness etc. It can also "morph" your image and distort the proportions if you don't choose the right lens for the task.
I myself am happy with my 100 mm macro lens from Canon to play with beauty in the studio. You can probably also easily use it for nature photography, but I have no experience with that genre
