Nice pictures love and the light is good throughout

You did really well to make her not look as big(?) as she really is.

Yay thank you! I wont lie, I kept checking your profile for when you would be on, and Im like ahmigawd he didnt comment, he either hates them and doesnt know how to tell me or hes building up a paragraph of cnc

Thanks for saying that, I was kind of worried. I guess the angles she normally shoots herself at makes her seem slimmer, if you look at the photos on her page: http://www.facebook.com/DaniRayeMakeup

Couple more, getting a little crazier with each edit, testing things out. Do you think its odd to have a series of photos with different editing styles?

LOL you're fucking mental :blush:

Well she has photoshopped those pictures, she looks much slimmer? Or trickery of the make up?

I honestly think keeping a colour theme/tone will work best otherwise it's mismatched and won't feel complete as a series!

Maybe a little At least Im not camped outside in your bushes or something.

I dont know, thats what I was hoping you could tell me haha. Seems like a big difference just for a different angle.

Okay How do you think I can make that work though? With pretty light shots by flowers and grungy ones against tires? Should I do a lighter edit for the tire ones?

Are you that sneaky muppet I've caught across the street with binoculars?? ha

Try doing one process or action over the whole set of images then tweak accordingly. Oh, I forgot, you don't use lightroom, you can't see how the whole series looks :wallbash:

Are they LRTemplate files? Its weird, I just tried downloading some and importing them but its saying the file is wrong.

Also I tried using the auto tone on every photo, it did okay for some but pretty much ended blowing most of them out.

Don't use auto tone.

Just batch mini series together. Like if you took 5 good images from one location shoot, select them all and batch correct because the original colour/exposure will be the same.

IF you want to batch the whole lot just select all and apply a preset. I would not batch correct the lot with exp/colour because not all shots are the same because you change location.

I sent you a pm

Oh and if youre going to comment or cnc me, please dont comment on the fact that she isnt a typical stick thin 100 pound model, its just tacky.

Oh and that comment wasn't needed here at all btw.
Thinking that ppl here never had a nontypical model is just tacky, i think you over reacted abit.

Model is lovely, tho she seems to feel abit uncomfortable on some photos, especially sitting ones.

Can you tell me how was this edit is made?

Also regarding your photos of kids, i think you need to add more light/abit contrast, or similar edit but warmer tones?

Well the reason I said that is because in another section I had some really childish comments about her weight, I didnt say anything here until that happened. I know I shouldnt expect anything like that here, I was just annoyed that it was said at all. But whatever, kids will be kids I suppose.

She was a bit. I tried to loosen her up with jokes, and I let her know to do what she felt comfortable doing. This was her first time modeling (sort of, she did a shoot last week or so with a fauxtog, and wasnt too happy about it) so she wasnt quite sure of how to position herself. I kind of blanked on poses myself a lot >.< I had looked up poses before, but its like it all just flew out of my mind, haha.

After RAW adjustments I edited that one with Paint the Moon's Luminosity and Artisan collections. Did you want a step by step?

Lith says the same thing all the time :P. Ive definitely been trying to.
