Portrait of Daughter - Before and After

[Jimby]

Just happened to be shooting photos while shes was playing on the floor in her pink dress. Afterward when viewing the photos I fell in love with her pose and expression in this photo. I spent several hours removing the background, but I wanted more. It was then I found some nice instructions on creating a dreamy effect. Let me know what you think.

Aw, that's so sweet! I agree that her pose and expression are adorable. May I suggest that you crop it differently (maybe portrait instead of landscape) to get rid of some of the white?

lovely photo, but is toooo white and the lines beneath the chin look akward

When I printed the photo I did actually crop it to a portrait style. It was much better, and I do agree about the white. It was a bit much. As for the chin, Im not really sure how to fix that. My photoshop skills are not quite there yet.
Thanks for the input.
