    One suggestion-- use PS to give her just a bit of whitening on her teeth in that second photo. A saturation adjustment layer with the yellows tweaked down will usually do the trick.

    But as someone else said-- $2K for braces-- well you got off easy!

    Nice shots. I know she was happy to get them off, I was when mine finally came off.

    She is gonna be a heart breaker (if she already isn't).

    AS far as whitening, her teeth are very white, but picked up some color cast. She was under the shade of a live oak in my back yard and I should have turned her face to the light instead of away. Thanks for the suggestion.

    You are probably right as I usually only know the half of it.
