My cousin Neevedita
My cousin Neevedita. Summer 1998. New York, NY. Shot with Canon EOS Elan IIE film camera with Kodak MAX 200 film and Sigma 28-80mm lens. Some adjustments done with Photoshop Elements to get a glamor glow and improve skin tone. I know the nose is kind of burnt, but I still like the expressions on her face, so I picked this one.
Shraddha without makeup
Shraddha. Summer 2007. She never wears makeup. But has a very nice skin tone that always comes out good in photos. I’ve adjusted tonal contrast a little bit to give this photo a studio look.
