Studio testing for my portfolio.

Ps. in reply to people trying to move this to 'photomanipulation', think of all the great fashion photographers out there, they edit their photographs 100 times more, retouchers do an amazing job and they are still classed as photographers. Keep trying, it will just be moved back!

Well I put my some of my beauties in manipulation and was told that it belonged in photography! Go figure! LOL! I love her she is a doll!

If this is supposed to be a "painted look", then I have to say that you've failed miserably at making it so. You've simply abused whatever photo editing program you used to the point that she look so unrealistic and fake - that it's obvious you over-edited the image, absolutely ruining your poor model.

By the way: As a friend of mine said, lose the "DIS IZ MY STYLE/DIS IZ HOW I WANTED IT 2 LEWK" attitude. You're not fooling anyone 'cept yourself, and you make yourself look absolutely childish by taking the past polite, constructive criticism so poorly. Surprising behavior coming form a senior member.

Its very regal, very modern, and yet very fashionable, almost like a take from a fantasy movie. :heart:

This does look very edited, and her eyes are otherworldly. Don't get me wrong, it's gorgeous. I can honestly say that I have never seen a portrait quite like this ever. The texture of the hair contrasts the smooth airbrushed flawless face very well.

Why so many people so harsh on the editing done to this photo? I personally absolutely love it, yes there is like a painted kind of look to it, but I really think it adds to it, it suits her hair & make up very well. Makes me think of Marie Antoinette for some reason, the paintings of her... this is like a more modern artistic implied take of it. People really don't appreciate enough of what people put into an image after its taken, i know everyone has a right to there opinion and everyone has different tastes.. oh well, I won't go any further into it.

The retouching took away the beauty of natural light on the skin.
great pose though.
