Post your best wife shots

I am still trying to decide which is my best wife...

Everyone is anti white vignette nowadays. It is the cheesy 1980's look that you used to get at the mall...

Lovely lady!
I like your wife's pose better in the left image, but the background is better in the right. I guess there's no pleasing me!

Thank you, Jon ! Appreciate the kind words. I agree with you about the left pose being better, but the background in the right is better.

It was such an impromptu shoot; we were just waiting outside a hospital where our teenage son was interviewing for a volunteer position for the summer. As always, I had my camera with me, and asked her to start posing.

lets see if i can help
- she is beautiful
- her face is very symmetric
- the hair highlight is perfect
- her makeup is perfect
- the soft lighting on her face is good
- her pose is feminine yet strong and natural
- the chosen background is not distracting
- her outfit looks great on her
- her expression is nearly perfect

besides all of the above
- the 85L was used at F2 which is perfect
- the outdoor light allowed ISO 100

when you get that much right in camera, PP becomes a little easier

Not my images, but just a quick guess:

For the faded look in the second, a quick & easy way is:
- Linear Level adjustment
- Push the blacks due north a touch and remove them from the image
- Push the mid-range a little, plus the highlights
- Then increase contrast a bit

The third image could be accomplished with highlight and shadow toning to add blues & greens. That'd be tough to figure out without a guide. Although, I think NIK Analog Effex has some great presets along these lines for a vintage look with saturation. I vote for NIK if you want a quick and easy method.

Cheers
