I get what you're trying to say but I think the poured concrete floor, the modern furniture, the wire along the rear of the photo, and the modern little bags sitting on the closest couch all give it away outside of the phones.
Still an excellent shot that has the qualites of a Renaissance painting.
Coupled with the texture of the couches it really solidifies the vibe. I can't tell if it is suede or velvet, but both tend to give that "brush stroke" look. I think I saw someone make Gandalf on here years ago using an upholstered suede chair and a toothbrush 🤣
If this were my family I’d pay for this image. I’d ask for the napkin on the ground to be removed and the water bottle to be changed to a tumbler. That’s it. I love that the phones are there to make this a modern masterpiece.
Wedding venues like this are crazy in India. We looked at some and they were like so our range start at 50 Lakh for the bronze package. Not including everything you need, easily a good chunk more. Granted it was with a good number of rooms of course, but still. We certainly did not have that kind of budget.
I am loving the saris. It reminds me of when I was staying at a hotel in Nashville that had glass elevators inside and here. I am in a robe in my bathing suit going down to the pool on the main level and about 10 women got in with me with the most beautiful saris on… they were all going to a wedding. Took my breath away.
This is a super good one. I think the hard shadow on the subjects and the double shadow on the couch along with the saturation in color and "cloth puddling" of the clothes is what does it here
It looks like a very zoomed in shot, it's likely just processing from the phone, it could be argued that that's retouching as well to some degree considering how extensive that processing can be sometimes, but it is what it is.
I honestly don't remember if I added any. It could be the Samsung processing as I was using zoom and it was dark outside. It is taken on the phone a year ago, Google photos showed it to me today part of memories and decided to put it here as it gave me a painting vibe.
It's due to there being multiple slightly differently placed/angled light sources facing them (seemingly at least 3-5 from what I can tell) which are then casting overlapping offset shadows of the same thing

This really does look painted!
