What a pretty girl, Lorey. Love the light in these shots, too, very well done. I only have one niggle: my eyes are drawn to her teeth, and those are not her best feature. I wonder if her smile could be a bit more subtle and not so pronounced? I dunno, I just look at the teeth and not her eyes .... maybe it's just me.

I quite like shot 2 here. Teeth do look extra white especially in shot 2.

Thanks Matt and Marko. Well, this was my first attempt at using the 'whiten teeth' tool in lightroom. I thought they might be a little on the white side but I was wanting other opinions too. When I whitened them the default setting was even brighter than what you see. I brought it down some from the default but I guess not quite enough. Luckily LR edits are nondestructive so it'll be just a matter of moving the slider down some more and saving it. Your input has been helpful. I appreciate it!

I toned the teeth down a bit and I think it does look better. Any input on my changes?

Yes, much better on the second go around. I also favour her more relaxed pose in shot number 2 though I would expect she'd be happy with either. Both shots are reasonably technically sound but the second come out ahead due to the moment that was captured.

Tooth tones look just fine in shot 1.
Still 10-15% too white to my eye in shot 2.

Thanks Iggy and Marko. Appreciate the feedback and viewing.

nicely done

Thank you Ed, I appreciate it.
