I missed last week's challenge due to well.. life. Those of you who are new can read more about that here, here, and here.

First Edit. |
Simple: In Lightroom I used Preset Heaven's Fashion Shot II and adjusted it to my liking. I also used the Adjustment Brush to soften her skin just slightly and clarify & sharpen her facial features (eyes, mouth, lashes). I also cropped the photo in a little and to be a 5x7 print size.
Final Edit!
I did this entire edit in Lightroom. I used the Creamtone preset. It is my favorite place to start for a B&W edit. It has a little color added but I usually remove that. I also used the Adjustment Brush to manually soften her skin and sharpen her eyes, mouth, and other features. I used a slightly different crop on this one. I kind of want a copy of this for myself! =) That okay Beth??? hehe

PS. If you like what you see in my edits...I have just opened a shop on etsy and am offering editing services. I'm going to add more stuff later, but I decided I better do some self promoting...which is hard for me..but that's a discussion for a different day! =)
