1. Jamie Williams; May 21st, 2010; 10:10 a.m.; Dubois, ID; f/2.8; 1/10000 sec.; SONY DSC-H50; Enhancements: I first started in Camera Raw with basic edits, then brought image into Photoshop. Then, I converted the image to Smart Object by going to Smart filter. I then added a filter by going to: Filter-Convert for Smart Filters-Noise-Median. This gave the skin a nice smooth effect and also increased the bokeh. I masked out her whole body except but her skin and then whatever was in the foreground, leaving the background smooth. I then finished by adding a burned border.

This is where I was able to add a filter, like the one above to smooth the skin, but masking out everything else so that she looks sharp and defined. I then added a burned border to make it look more finished.

These portraits were so fun to take! I have never spent much time photographing people as subjects, but have now found that I really enjoy it. I would love to get better at this and continue to take photos of friends and family from now on!

I really like all of these portraits. They have nice angles. The one of Erica has a nice background that makes it look like it was taken in a studio.
I love your portraits! The one of Erica is amazing. She is posed well with a great background. You also used great angles in your portraits. Good job!
These are awesome portraits!!! Like Sarah and Katrina, the one of Erica is my favorites!! Great choice of edits. It looks perfectly exposed and very sharp and clear. Great work!!
