I have to agree that her skin texture bothers me. Was Portrait Professional used here?
Beautiful model, colors, lighting.
I agree with (at least) some of the others. The skin just doens't look right.I am not a fan of the totally silky, nearing plastic look some beauty shots show. But here it is as if there is a finely pebbled, evenly distributed textured layer added. I thought it was more make up than anything else, but the uniformity does not fit that theory and digital processing does
beautiful images. Agree with others that the skin texture is a bit distracting. A combination of selective sharpening and a bit of smoothing would take care of that I think.
I love these. I find the skin texture very appropriate for the overall look, make up and colors; to me it is great just as you processed it.
Thanks for sharing!
The lighting, mood, makeup, ... everything is just superb with the exception of the FS. It is a bit too much for my taste. At least you left in some wrinkles under her eye.
I like the highlights in the model's hair very much. If you decide to adjust them, might I suggest that you don't eliminate them entirely. They add much to her magnificent hairstyle, in my opinion. As for the skin treatment, reducing the effects to a little more natural would be better, to my eye. But none of this is to contradict what I said first: stunning!
I do like the first image (eyes more visible) more than the second one, but I have to agree with those who think that these images were way over-processed and/or over-sharpened. Sorry!
