Portrait

Hmmm. Just a little too heavy-handed on the softening, I think. It's a very fine line, of course, and difficult to establish sometimes - but perhaps just pull back from it a bit. Your model is lovely, and your light is very nice - but there's just a little to little reality in that skin - it doesn't match the intensity of the features (like the eyes, lips, or brows) that remain au natural.

Agreed. A truly captivating portrait, lessened a bit by the overdone smoothing. She looks like shes made out of plastic. A bit more of a natural look and this one would really work.
