Formal Portraits Retouched with Questions

Questions:

1. Which portrait is your favorite and why?

My favorite is the portrait of Jayminn, because his posture and subtle grin lends itself to a truly iconic portrait. It reminds me of a wholesome school picture from 2012 that you would look back at with your kids in 20 years and recall fond memories.

2. What was the easiest part of this process?

The easiest part of the portrait process in my opinion was taking the photos, because it only required a simple set-up and we had the chance to take many photos and choose from our options.

3. What was the hardest part of this process?

The most difficult part of the process was the retouching, because sometimes following the tutorials did not lead to the desired result, so I was forced to improvise and experiment to optimize the portraits.
