Thanks!

It really is a lovely photo. Her dress complements the outdoor scenery perfectly, too. Nice job.

This is a really good edit. I like it better than the first one.

I like the edited #2 as well. I don't think she will even notice the "modifications" that you added. Models in magazines are enhanced all the time and we don't notice. How did you smooth her skin so effectively?

Thanks, I do think the "modifications" are subtle enough to not even be noticed. Actually she didn't notice. I smoothed the skin using a technique I learned on the forums. You can find info on this older forum post Anatomy of a Beauty Shot go to some of the links there and you can get a good idea. I now setup a photoshop action for myself that sets that all up automatically. Saves some time. -Matthew

I love popping the colors a bit - reds are tougher though.
