(It doesn't always...depends on the image), so my final version of this image was bit more processed...more to my style and taste than what I posted here...and it did include a sky. I'll post my final version on my blog here in a bit. Jodi and I decided not to post my final version since it was considerably more processed than where I took it to in the tutorial. I hope that helps! You’re all very welcome for the tutorial. :) Johanna – you asked if the white sky bothers me…and yes…in this particular image it does.

I was wondering if the white sky bothers you at all, and if anything could be done about it during capture as opposed to after in PS? Thanks. I enjoyed the tutorial Sandi.

Hope you can answer a question I have about sharpening. Do I sharpen the hi resolution file or do I only sharpen for web and print? And what is the best technique for sharpening?

A little advanced for me, but I'm attempting the techniques anyway! I'm trying to follow your steps on my own photo and I'm having trouble "inverting my layer mask" after adjusting my hue/saturation. I'm to this step: "Once I’ve clicked “OK”, I am going to invert my layer mask and then paint back in the areas of her skin where I want the adjustment layer to show through at 100% opacity as shown above." Every time I invert my Hue/Saturation layer it looks like film negatives? Am I doing this correctly? BTW, I never knew you could lasso select your image to adjust curves accordingly either! I love this blog! Wow, great tutorial!! A little advanced for me, but I’m attempting the techniques anyway!

The images came out of the camera pretty close to the SOOC you show here... any thoughts on tans? just curious on this one… i had a really tan senior and lightened her up in the same way and she was disappointed that she looked “so pale.” The images came out of the camera pretty close to the SOOC you show here… any thoughts on tans?
