| Infrared imaging offers a spectacular, otherworldly view of the people and places that surround us. Tones shift and take on a magical cast, and the resultant images have a mystical quality—one that’s particularly well suited to clients who are looking for portraits with a certain edge.
While infrared film is expensive, requires special handling, and can be unpredictable at best, the ability to create infrared images with a digital camera and proper filtration has revolutionized the genre. Photographers can quickly capture traditional color images, then craft the striking infrared images that will round out—or make—the sale. Doing so is simple and, for the first time ever, you can preview the results—and even share them with clients on the spot.
With everything you need to know about digital infrared imaging—from testing your camera’s infrared sensitivity, to selecting the proper filtration, to enhancing the image with digital effects, to marketing your images—you’ll quickly gain the skills and inspiration you need to set your studio apart.
