Ehhh... I think you shouldn't mess with the eyes. If that's actually her eye color, I suggest you darken it some. I also agree with Mike, just leave the shirt as it is, or else it would make it look really unrealistic.

Yeah, make the colors pop out some more and I think it'll be just fine.

I would remove that pole thing on the wall. It's distracting.

Well, don't pop out the colors too much, because the image quality isn't that great..

For these type of pictures, I usually mess with the Skin tone and the background with Selective Coloring( Mess with specific colors ) , Curves( Change the tone of the picture ) and Brightness/Contrast( Mess with the lighting and contrast of the picture) and making the picture look more natural or pretty.


I made a 2MP picture look like it's taken from a 8MP. so that's the wonderful things photoshop can do.

brightin the skin up and her eye color
i got photoshop cs4


1.) CS4 - that's an expensive program for someone toying around!
2.) Why would you want to brighten her skin?

Actually, I have no advice. I don't know what the heck I'm doin' in Photoshop.
