Great. Think of these as a different starting point. For example the 
whitebalance is a guess (I did the editing on a crappy laptop monitor that 
can’t be calibrated…)

 

For the future, you might think about lighting differently: As a Nikon user, 
you have got a very powerful wireless flash control inside your camera. If the 
light is difficult, sometimes I set the camera as CLS master without flash 
output (“—“ symbol in the menu) , and hold a flash in my other hand (TTL slave 
mode, above the subject and to the side). If you don’t have a flash, consider 
getting a portable reflector.

 

Cheers

Thanks Michael,

They look quite good on the phone. I'll check them out once I get home.

Here's my take:

I used a simpler approach than you did, but included a custom white
balance, a bit of equalizer ("clarity"), and some additional
exposure for the faces.

Cheers
