retouching is more than my taste but i don't think it looks bad at all...gives the photos a softer feel, and its part of your style i've noticed. i like 2 a lot! number 3 and 4 i also really like, but minor nit..the wb seems mixed, like two different light sources but not one dominating one. anyway beautiful otherwise. I bet 3 would be awesome in b&w!

Thank you, your input is thoughtful and helpful . I used a beauty light in some of these, it mostly just gives the eyes come catchlights. I did 3 in b&w as well, it looked great. #1 is way way smooth but I really like that one over smoothed.
Sometimes I look at my photos or others and I wonder what is that one thing , the one tweak that makes others look "polished" or gives them that little push that says PRO PHOTO! Can't put my finger on it but I feel sometimes I need it. Sometimes a vingnette does it, but not always. Thanks for commenting

The third one is amusing. Was the hubby trying to give himself a "baby bump" too?
No he wasn't lol I didn't even really notice!
thank you very much for the compliment.
