Default Newborn for CC

I'm looking for CC on everything, but would specifically like to know on color. I do a little color correction to most newborns to even out the skin tone.

This photo was taken using OCF.
Brolly was camera right, very close to baby with my canon speedlight set at 1/16 or 1/32nd (can't remember for this particular shot, had had changed settings about halfway through)

Had a small reflector opposite brolly on other side of baby angled back towards baby.

Camera settings:
f2.8, ISO200, SS 1/200

Color looks good, but it can use a bit more contrast.

The color looks just right to me, and I agree with Susan that a little more contrast might help. I like the composition of the shot, the position of the little guy suits the frame and you gotta love the hat.
