Here is a photo I took of my youngest tonight. I just told her to give me a smile and this is what I got. She's a little stinker. Not sure if there is much else I could have done with it but I thought it turned out fairly well.

Looking for more input though. They were taken with a 50mm prime close up. Is it too warm or too cool? Anything else?

Looks good to me. White balance and exposure look spot on on my laptop. Maybe a touch more contrast on the B&W?

Agree with David. Spot on. Black & White or Sepia usually has more contrast and even sharpness.

Photo was taken with a big window behind me. Thanks for the suggestion about adding a little more sharpness or contrast to the B&W. I struggle with those.

Skin tones look good. Like the color one the best.
