Description Location : Paris.
Photographer : Nqv .
Editing : Me.

This was a picture I loved and that the photographer didn't seem to appreciate, so I insisted and he let me do the retouching part.
It's the first time I ever post it somewhere, hope you like it !

I would really like to have some constructive critiques about this pic ^^

I am new to this but what I do know might be able to help. The shot could of been composed a bit better. Maybe that's why the photographer didn't like it. I think best if it were cropped to remove the red and white stripes or edit the girl and flip her in the other direction as if she was walking to the stripes.
I'm not sure what you did in editing, but I hope the following helps.
The face looks great it's smooth and shows the important lines not to many less important fly away hairs. it has a bit of vintage touch to it.
I like it.

Thank you very much for your critique !
In editing, I changed the whole tone of the pic to make the two reds of the dress & the door match.
I also created this "vintage" look with some filters and accentuated the contrast.

j'aime beaucoup cette photo, mais ce serait bien de réaliser différentes variantes sur cette base ( le jeux entre les 2 rouges ea)

Le soucis c'est que je serais bien incapable de retrouver cette porte !

Quand Mitsu a un idée en tête, elle ne l'a pas ailleurs. En plus, les résultats sont toujours très beaux.

I really like the overall feel of the photo but the only thing I don't like so much is the dark shadow behind your face.

So much of a photo can be centred on a face that when it is distorted like this it can be very distracting.

Apart from that though, its really very good

Thank you very much for your constructive comment !
I've been trying again and again to remove this shadow, but didn't manage to do it properly...

No problem. I really do love the colours of the photo though.

I do a lot of work with Photoshop. I could try to remove the shadow if you have a higher def version of the photo available. No problem if you don't

I have it somewhere, but I'm not sure the photographer will be okay with me sending the high def picture to another photographer ^^"
Thank you for offering though !
