Your opinion about this photo and retouch
Hi everyone,
I would like to know what do you think about this photo especially about retouch? I took this picture a few month ago and I wanted to do something sweet, natural and soft.

Recently, I taught an Off Camera Flash class. Paige was my model for the class. We were outdoors but it started to rain. Luckily, a nearby restaurant let us conduct the class in their dining room.

Beautiful! Not sure what you did to retouch it, but it does look very natural and clean to me. The grey backdrop does feel a touch too masculine for her, though.
Thank you for your opinion. A good comment. I think the picture can be better without grey backdrop) Honestly I added grey color because this neutral tone is good for photos. But I agree with you.
Would definitely help to see a before/after of this - I have to agree that a more "feminine" colored backdrop would really help to convey the sweetness you were going for.
Thanks for comment)
Your lighting is impeccable Darya!
Excellent treatment,it still feels very natural
