Developing practical solutions based on this demand…

Pain Points (Public)

Multi-shot commercial sessions yield dozens of raw captures with uneven exposure and lighting variations, making manual color matching against a client's established lookbook tedious and prone to noticeable visual inconsistency.

Suggested Approach (Public)

Establish a standardized post-processing pipeline using Adobe Lightroom and Capture One to harmonize raw files against client reference decks, executing uniform color correction, skin tone balancing, and clean defect cleanup across entire batches.

What to build first
  1. Step 1: Build a Python-based color extraction script using Adobe Photoshop or Lightroom SDKs to analyze color palettes and tone curves from 3-5 provided reference deck images.
