I did this some time ago. The high key effect is all done in postprocessing.
I like how this turned out, though it could be a little bit too artificial. :)

Hope you like it!

    I think you did well. The only thing that bothers me are the eyes in the middle picture. I can't say what exactly is the problem but the middle picture hurts what could be a very nice triptych

    by taste I'm not fond of high key pics but this is nice-

    I do agree with ldog that the middle pic's eyes are a little disconcerting, whether it's the model's expression or from pp I don't know-

    Thanks a lot for your feedback!!

    Could you please explain what it is that you don't like about the eyes or the expression in the middle picture?
    I would like to correct that in pp if posible.

    Regards,

    Andreas,

    I think what she did is go a little, "bug eyed" into the camera. Her eyes are unnaturally large, because she was being funny for the camera. I'm not sure there is anything you want to do in software.

    These are some of the best high-key-in-software examples I have seen. I do hope you explain your process and procedure.

    Nice model! I suspect #3 is what you were trying for, and I do like it.

    Thanks,

    "Bug eyed"?!?! Laughing.gif!! :wow
    Now I can remember, I'm afraid this was my fault. I told her to give me a "What are you starring at?!"-look! :) Ah well, I think I leave it so.

    It was done with a plugin called "Lightmachine". I just used one of the presets, and blended it into the original image.

    I should have figured as much. It's always "the guy's" fault. The sooner guys figure that out, the longer the relationship will last. rolleyes1.gif

    Thanks for the information,

    I think the Middle shot is a harsh angle on the face that I do not like. Square on of female models are difficult.

    Like the other two.

    good work
