 Shot with incandescent lighting and overexposed 1.3 shops to achieve high-key effect. Levels adjusted in Photoshop and a tiny bit of glaussian blur added to hopefully enhance the softness of the high-key tone I was going for.

a little more lip, a little less light on the left would have made this a 10.. still needs a little work. Keep at it!
