If you get a chance I highly recommend watching one of Lindsay Adler's
retouching seminars. I was fortunate to catch her three day seminar on
Creativelive.com last week and it was tremendously informative and
eye-opening. I was surprised to see how close my workflow is to hers,
but she goes so much further and introduced some really effective
techniques.
[ http://www.creativelive.com/live -- there's a wedding seminar on

She's a very experienced portrait and fashion shooter and retoucher,
and also a very personable presenter. I'm not generally big on video
seminars, but some subject matter benefits from this kind of
presentation and this lady has the chops for sure. For example, she
pointed out how nicely the Imagenomic Portraiture plugin can be
re-used to quickly clean up scuffed seamless. Super idea! I've spend
hours cleaning seamless in post. She demonstrates using frequency
separation to do very high quality skin retouching -- quite an
advanced technique.

I would highly recommend the CreativeLive DVD of her course based on
having seen it live.

Here's a much condensed seminar of hers on Youtube that B&H put up:

Jail-bait is a local term for a girl who looks older than the legal
age of consent.


... but is not. Yeah, I know.

That's pretty much the same thing it means around here, although
sometimes the girl's actual age don't matter as much as her appearance.
Where I grew up a lot of it could depend on who her daddy was ... not a
sugar-daddy; her genetic paternal unit.

You might be onto something there :-)

I've not used beauty dishes too often (I tend to stick to soft boxes &
umbrellas), but I decided to see what all the fuss is about on this
shoot.

Thanks Bruce.

The skin still has pore detail in the full res image. Like you, I look
at a lot of over cooked images too.

My general retouch technique is spot healing brush/patch tool for
blemishes, the clone stamp on lighten with a very low opacity (about
10% or less) for under the eyes, and the final skin smoothing is based
on this tutorial:

<http://youtu.be/Fv4L1-TaGhI>

I skip the 2 Gaussian blur steps and just reduce the skin smoothing
adjustment layers opacity at the end.

Dave, I don't feel this displays over-smoothed skin, but I view a lot
of fashion images where unrealistically uniform skin is expected, so I
have a bias. :-)

But I also note that one cannot really tell if skin detail was lost to
post-processing in a 3/4 length shot that's less than 1000px high,
like here. Assuming there is fine detail in the original, it's all
been smoothed by image reduction to that size anyway.

The beauty dish mounted just above head height and aimed close to
on-axis produces very little shadow detail and so, as you note, does a
pretty good job of skin smoothing by itself.

I assume that you don't blur the skin, but use the healing tools,
mid-opacity clone stamp on Lighten, frequency separation, maybe a good
plugin, etc.

G'day Rick,

I did indeed smooth the skin in post. I'd be interested to hear if
others thing it's too much. I like to think I'm pretty judicious in
the level of smoothing I use.

Also I've noticed that the beauty dish used like this washes out the
skin which is quite flattering.

Thanks for your comments.

Dave

We always have fun when we get together. We share a similar twisted
sense of humor :-)

Thanks for looking.

Cheers,

Dave

Dave, did you smooth her skin digitally?  If not, she's got astonishingly clear 
skin.  If so, it's a bit overdone.  Any more and she'd look like a mannequin, 
and they aren't threatening.

G'day Trendsetters,

I had a bit of a shoot with one of my favorite models last weekend.
Here is one of the images:
