this is one of my favorite models (shots) that i've taken at school. the biggest thing for me, here, was to really bring out that eye color. (i love brown eyes.) it was also the first time i had the opportunity to really soften skin down. i've gotten more good feedback than bad. most people love the skin softening i did, some say it's too plastic-y. and, it is, a bit, but it's what i was going for.
the 2 hardest parts of this retouch job were the hair on the side of her face, and softening the skin down with a gaussian blur without getting a pink halo under the hat.
the truth is, i loved her skin as is. i sometimes find myself at a crossroads when it comes to beauty retouching when i know i want it to look that certain fake way, but the model's already absolutely beautiful.
