6. This shot was completely candid which is part of why I love it, other than the fact that my friend is completely gorgeous. For the enhancements I airbrushed her skin and whitened her teeth. I also blurred the background so that she would stand out even more. I also increased the saturation and played with the color balance as well.

6. This kid is hilarious! I loved taking pictures of her! I applied the match color edit to this shot which made it look alot better! I also sharpened the image overall and made some minor saturation and color balance edits because it ended up looking a little more pink than I wanted it to, but overall I really liked how it turned out. I still think I would to take out the background so it is not distracting to how cute she is!
