I do a LOT of natural light, a ridiculous amount, but have been wanting to break into studio work for a while, yesterday I got my first chance, AND I got to use one of my favorite lens combinations, 5D and 135/2L. Also tried the 85 1.8, and 100 f2 but I think I know what my next purchase will be.

I like the composition but I'm not sure how I should process it. Her face is pretty red and she has a little acne, most of which I was able to spot heal in LR3. Her hair has a greenish-yellow tint on my screen and I'm not sure how to correct these in PS. I'm using CS5 for what it's worth.

There are a few others of her standing upright but they all have the same redness and facial features. Doing a natural light shoot with her today, we got rained out yesterday for that portion, gotta love Florida.

Not to be nit picky...but the corners of the eyes are red/swollen looking...dunno how to fix it, but Im sure others can help. Otherwise...great shot.

Her facial skin could use a bit of help too. It seems a bit shiny and there are some blemishes.

This too, it's not as bad on this one but on a couple others it shows up well, what to do about this?

Here is a quick take on it.
God rid of the green and yellow hue but retained her green eyes. To cover the skin crease simply duplicated the layer masked it and blended it over the area.
