Lovely photo!!, thanks again

Hello, Thomas!
Thank you for stopping by! I do post-processing in Lightroom or/and Photoshop. This is a natural light picture taken in a shade. I cleaned up her face a little, then added saturation and contrast. Good luck and feel free to ask questions!

Thanks for the reply, Can you have a look at this image http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/4844/13112r.jpg

You can see that it has that kind of Hazy Over Exposed look, is this done by just over exposing the image, or is there some kind of filter or Photoshop effect at work here.

Sorry for my Question and thanks again.

Thomas,
I’d assume this photo had low contrast SOOC due to shooting against sun, hence hazy look. Also, author most likely played with shadows, highlights and color balance (reddish tint) in Photoshop. The overexposure of background resulted from setting the right exposure on the girl’s face, which normally would be in a shade. This portrait was taken under similar lightning conditions. Hope I answered your question.

Thanks, will have a try at recreating it.

Hi just out of curiosity, where could I find that head Scarf?

Thanks

Honestly I don’t know, we used model’s scarf.
