I had nothing to do so I forced my sister model for me or she'd get punched square in the face! Jk! Just did the usual stuff, minor complexion touch ups, added glare in CS2, sharpening, and curve adjustments.

Great photos! How did you do the lighting? Especially in #3 (which I like the most)

As far as #3, I overexposed slightly and adjusted my white balance using curves; giving it a warmer tone.

So you used natural light? In that case it was great natural light! :D

Yup yup! And thanks! For some reason shooting at wide apertures like f/1.4 & f/1.8 yield better contrast and that distinct light you see in a lot of prime pictures. So it's definitely not all me!

I let her off for being my model! But today is a new day! :evil:
