http://www.flickr.com/photos/a...s/72157632143855833/ This will be to submit for a commercial agent, which one should I print? Also, I was told to have a border and name on each shot, does the printer do this for me? Thanks, Ari | ||

Hi Arimannis, You look very different in the very last shot with the green shirt compared to the other outfit. Your hair style, skin tone is quite different from the other shots, I like that shot the best and your expression is the most authentic but you may want to crop it. If you look most like that then I would choose it. When you go get it printed, they will do the set up with the border and your name. Make sure that you warm up your skin tone if it's more like the other ones... Hope that helps. Joanna www.joannabrooks.com | |||

Thanks Joanna, do you mean crop the bottom? Also how do I warm up skin tone? | |||

Hi Ari, Yes, I think you should take 2 inches off the bottom of the shot. You need to ask the photographer to retouch and color correct the shot and tell them you want your skin tone the same color as it is in the other shots, if that's closer to your skin color. You really shouldn't have to do any of that unless you have skills to do it, your photographer and printer can do all that for you. I am attaching what I think it should look like, I just did a very quick version but hopefully it will help you understand what I mean. Hope that helps Joanna ![]() | |||

Thanks Joanna, My photographer doesnt do touch ups... but I do have adobe cs6, would you be willing to share your technique? I have cropped from bottom and attempted to warm, what do you think? Edit: Yours looks better after comparing them. Thanks Ari ![]() | |||

Hi Ari, Your photographer should be able to give you a color corrected image, so that's too bad. I think you should crop more from the bottom and right side, to that button on the bottom and the edge of your collar on the right, just keep the right size. I also cleaned up under your eyes a little. You may want to take the photo to Reproductions or Argentum and they will do that retouching for you as well as prepare it for printing etc. Joanna www.joannabrooks.com | |||
