Model #1 - For this image, I evened the skin tones and smoothed the lines by the mouth and under the eyes. I also evened the skin tones on the arm.
Model #2 - For this image, I made the hair a bit neater by removing the wispy hairs around the face and on top of the head in addition to evening the skin tones and smoothing the lines by the mouth and under the eyes.

SoCal MS Bike-a-thon 2008 participants - This image was one I was given to use in a pledge sheet for the 2009 bike-a-thon. I felt the focus should be on the faces of these generous people who give their time and energy to the MS Society's efforts to raise funds for MS Research. For this one, I cropped in as close as possible on the faces and darkened the background. I also reduced the yellow in their skin tones.

Herman Weiskopf portrait - This was sent to me as a medium res jpeg 1"x2"
It was to be used in a fundraising dinner invitation. It was the only image that was available to me so I had to make it work. I evened out the skin tones and blurred the background to reduce the pixelated appearance.
Tia Barbie and Uncle George - I did this as a Christmas present for my aunt and uncle.
