Brianna has something special to share with all of you today. This is a continuation of her entry for the July contest theme "nerdy girl". This set showcases some new post-production processing techniques that I've been practicing. Facial details are brought to life with thick lashes and lusciously full and glossy lips. I'm not into doing makeup so I apply my makeup with my digital paintbrush haha

I've also been a bit more bold with my neckline blends to add to the realism. On occasion I even move the hairline down a smidge to make the hair look less wig-like.
The biggest impact, in my opinion, is a technique called "dodge and burn" that I've been researching and experimenting with. It helps to add some depth and dimension to an otherwise flat-looking image. It definitely adds some drama to the photos!
Let me know what you guys think of these next generation photos!
P.S. who can find all of the 'TDF's hidden in the equations?
