This was from a last minute senior portrait shoot in our home studio. It has been very nice to be working with people other than those that live n my house.
We actually have a color version of this image printed and framed along with the original image straight from camera as an example of what editing we do. A proper before and after. There was NI used on her skin along with cloning and healing. I tried not to go too far with it - I may have though.
Thank you for the votes and comments.

I have to say, it's an awesome image either way. I've got a real soft spot for B&W though, and this one was very nicely converted. Everything is so smoooooth. Nice job!
Great portrait! Thanks for posting the original, it's always good to see the post processing choices that others make in their portraits. I'm sure she is (or will be) ecstatic with this image! Nicely done.

Tim, this is different for you! I love the b and w conversion...just that little Neat Image thing I mentioned - but I might be wrong about that...let me know if you used it or not, I am interested...she looks stunning and those eyes have really connected with the lens
stunning face...b and w tones are great...did you use neat image here? it seems there is a little too much plastic from some kind of noise reduction, but other than that, bueatiful 7
