October '26 Remix It! Challenge

October 2026: "Mad Hatter"

by Lisa Carney

Join me live on October 5th at 9am PT on YouTube and Behance, where I'll be remixing the "Mad Hatter" image myself and answering your questions in real time!

 

 

About the Image

This month I'm sharing one of my favorite shots from a shoot at MAX— a whimsical Mad Hatter character reaching straight out of the frame, with curls of orange hair spilling out from under a black-and-white spotted top hat. I love the theatrical energy in her expression and that playful, come-closer gesture. It feels like she's pulling you right into the frame with her. There's so much personality and texture here, from the lace glove and the velvet gown to the hat details, that I can't wait to see how everyone reinterprets it.

Have fun with the Remix and be sure to share yours! I'll announce my favorites at the end of the month and randomly select one entry to receive a complimentary 3-month Creative Cloud subscription.

About Me:
My name is Lisa Carney. I'm a photographer and photo retoucher based in Los Angeles, and I'm so excited to be this month's guest photographer for the Remix It! Challenge. You can see more of my work at lisacarney.com.

 

About Lightroom ReMix It:

The "Remix it!" challenge is a fun, community-driven creative activity that invites you to jump in, experiment, and share your unique editing style. Inspired by the collaborative spirit of Lightroom's Remix feature, where photographers build on each other's edits, this challenge is all about creativity, learning, and having fun together. Take an image, make it your own, and see how others in the community interpret the same starting point, because every remix tells a different story.

    Another one, this time focused on adding grain, took color sample from the image and go for modern film style grain edits:
