OK, so I was thinking, STUNNING--and that's just the word everyone seems to be using!

Gorgeous! Count me in as another fan of the lighting and colors!

Thank you! This is a favorite of mine! I wish I could claim this adorable little girl as my own, but its from a family session I did a few months ago. Really, I think her curls and adorable expression make the photo! I was just in the right place at the right time!

not only is she adorable, but it's just such a classy looking photograph. Love the processing on this.

p.s. I would love to know how you did it and if I could ever do that in elements...

This photo is absolutely breathtaking! Beautiful processing, as well.

Kristin said...

I love how the green coat just pops in this picture, as well as the intense look in her eyes! Great Picture!

Unknown said...

Thanks again for all the wonderful comments. I had no idea everyone would enjoy this picture so much. I knew I liked it... :)
I try not to process my pictures too much but I believe I did use an action for photoshop called "Portrait Pop" for her eyes. And on her coat I *might* have used a color boost action, otherwise (ha ha) it is sooc.
