High Key Portrait

Newbie to the site and to photography, shooting for about 1 year. This is a portrait I did with my wife as she helps me to try to get better with my portrait photography... all CC is welcome.

D600, Tamron 70-200mm, shot at 82mm 1/160th f8.0 ISO 100... Clamshell lighting with speed light on background.

Your wife is gorgeous. I'd say pay attention to the highlights on the skin; these look just slightly too bright, and the color is a little off. Either upping your shutter speed to 1/200 or, if 1/160 is your max sync speed, either up the aperture to 9 *or* turning down the power of your strobes a little should help.There is a stark transition from the highlight on her cheekbone that doesn't look quite natural.

Hope this helps!

I agree I was thinking that the highlights were blown out... thank you for the feedback and I will make the adjustments
