This is a shot of my Daughter and her BF. Nothing too staged, the Moms had them pose and I snagged a shot as I walked by. They really liked the one I got so I ran it through LR and I feel I improved it a good bit but far from can probably be done. C&C welcome, just be kind. I'm still wet behind the ears.

Original as shot.

    Haha, I just realized it looks like she's cupping his butt. That gives a shudder.

    It needed to be cropped, so you had the right idea there, but why an oval like that?

    Check your skin tones. On my monitor they look less natural after LR than before.

    Funny how tight teenage-girl jeans weren't made for big cell phones like that!

    The oval was to be different, plus it's probably going to get framed, I thought the white oval would make it stand out a bit better.

    See I'm not happy with the skin tones either. I helped with the sunburn (Dang teenagers, they even had sunblock with them!) but it put a strange tint I don't like, but isn't too bad. I'm probably going to go back in and fix that even if I just go back to normal.

    I told her I'm leaving the phone! That earned an eye roll!

    Yes I see the same thing looked at in LR I see this also you may want to check the white balance....
