| No....her face looks great. The lighting on her face is very flattering. |

On my monitor it sure doesn't look like her face needs to be lightened any more. It looks perfect. Matter of fact, I was marvelling at how you got her face so pretty and radiant with that type of backlighting. She is so elegant looking.

A lot of very nice visual elements in this and natural framing - but for me anyway - she just looks a bit glum . .
. . but maybe that's just me. Otherwise some really nice parts to this |

no, don't lighten her face. if you want to see a difference, i'd see what adding a darker layer (just drop the brightness) and use a layer mask to bring back those great highlights. it'd take a lot of painting but i think it could look pretty good. that's what i'd try, anyway. :)
next time, maybe a gold reflector? or do it on the cheap and tape foil to cardbord and color it with an orange marker. it'll rub off on your fingers but gives a pretty great quality reflected light...and did i mention it is cheap? :) |

It's obviously a pretty good shot butI think I'd like to see for contrast in her face - the fill flash has obliterated potentially dramatic shadows. I took the liberty of trying to edit the image to show what I mean:
I hope you don't mind - a picture is worth a thousand words (well, maybe 20!)

| I agree with Leo, in fact I had a play with darkening the face a little..... i actually managed to ruin it mind you.... it's a gift lol :) |

| No I don't think you need to lighten her face anymore. Overall its a good image. I think the flash is too obvious. With that amount of sunlight, I think I would have used a reflector to bounce the light back and give it a more natural look. IMO |
