Here are 2 more from a shoot I did a while back that I almost missed. I think they are probably better than the ones I posted previously. What do you think? PP done on background wrinkles and some minor skin work done. Exposures are as shot.
#1 Grandma and granddaughter

I like these a lot, good job on a first effort. You could remove the shine on the womans cheeks on the first and a hair light on the second. Otherwise these are very nice.

Good eye on the cheek reflections! I am still adding to my lighting hardware and a hair light is high on my list. Thanks for the comments!

I like this shot, so I adjusted it a bit. Hope you don't mind.

I like these. The only thing I would change is to push the glasses up just a little. I don't like the way the frame is touching the upper part of his eyeball. He sure is on an advanced reading list!

On my list too, probably why it stood out to me!

Are those his glasses, or did you add them for effect?

Actually the glasses belong to his grandma! He just put them on and grabbed a book so I shot it. He is a funny kid for sure and a natural in front of the camera.

I like the edit you did, especially the hair highlights and the eye brightening. I actually know how to do most of that but it never crossed my mind. Thanks for participating in my learning process!
