He puts more effort in a single shot than most photographers do in a whole shoot.

It's not the color which has an effect of the texture of the skin, it's the shiny surface, as opposed to a beauty dish with a "sock" on it to mute the hard light.

Great, I honestly never considered the effect the colour of the dish would have on the resulting texture of the skin.
