Please critique my last untouched studio attempt

I think I commented on this in another post. I like the composition and lighting on this photo.

I too like the composition and lighting. Though my eyes keep focusing on the two dark spots on the side of her mouth. Are those shadows?

[milleker]

Great but it really could use some cloning/healing and maybe some soft focus on her skin. Two things you can't get right in camera unfortunately, though you've gotten everything else spot on.

Beauty of a shot! Hope you re-post it if you decide to post process it a bit.

Thanks heaps for the replies.

I do not pp the photos before I post as I would prefer to work clean - until I select the image I want to work on.

The spots are dimples.

VERY nice. Especially for something that has received no PP! What was your setup for this shot?

[Ken Robertson]

Thanks babyduckm

2 strobes ( veryry large sbox and smaller one on right) set couple of blockers to retain the black background

Beautiful model and great image. I'd be tempted to remove those slight skin blemishes and straighten her lipstick and remove the shadow above her mouth. I find her partially hidden right eye a bit distracting. Having said that, I'd be very pleased to have taken something like this.

THANKS BS - My posts are mostly untouched so thanks for the pp advice
