    Beautiful image and great tutorial. Thank you 🙂

  3. Clifton Yaney

    Improving the lay of the clothing was good, but this lesson was really helpful in settling the background by eliminating distractions and bringing the environmental elements into a single, beautiful palette. Another great lesson.
