Too late now? Well, maybe dodge the background a little so that you get some separation between her and the background.
I don't know how dark the dress really was... but if it wasn't pitch black, then maybe a little lighter exposure (or processing) to bring out some lost details might be nice (depends on what's hiding in the black).
It's overall darker than I would have gone, but it appears to be on purpose and part of your vision for the image so I wouldn't change that. Sharpness and contrasts both look really good.
So, except for those two possible improvements, I think ya did great. |
thanks, yes the dress was black, i woke up at 6:30 that morning to catch the sunrise to get some pics, but it was cloudy so outside was just like a giant softbox :/ i wanted some orange light
