kmrozinski Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Hi Damien, I took a headshot for a lady running for a county office, and she will use it to put on brochures and on a billboard. I posted it on a Facebook group for CC and have fixed many things since, but I'm still not sure it's where it needs to be and I'm so nervous to have a picture blown up so huge. Some things people mentioned that I fixed (using your quick selection method and levels, thank you!!) : lightened the hair, evened the exposure on her teeth, lowered the exposure on the end of her nose, brightened the right side of the picture... I smoothed her skin a lot since it will be so huge, no one wants to see their wrinkles blown up huge. I didn't realize the SOOR was so yellow until someone pointed that out, so I took some yellows out (although I have a feeling you might tell me to start over in RAW....I have done so much work though so I guess I am trying not to!) I haven't done any sharpening yet, I have no idea how to format a picture to be made so large! ANY help or tips you can give me are greatly appreciated!! Thanks Damien!

Damien Symonds Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 I think she looks ... "over-perfected", if you know what I mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She asked me to make her look 20 years old I took it too far? I'm working on another version where I started over in RAW...and I've been pounding my head on my computer all night.

kmrozinski Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 This is what I ended up with, I don't know if you can comment at all but I wanted to share anyway... I think it's better...at least I hope it is! Next time I need to get my lighting and white balance right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samantha LaRue Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 It looks pretty good, but please undo whatever you did on the eyes. They are way over sharp and look very fake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
