For some of them, anyway. But the CWB didn't capture her tones how they are in person. She's verrrry tan.

How about just smashing the sheet with a flash to the point of over-exposure? That model is super-cute!

Tried it.. But it made her orange.
I know, right?!

I wasn't using auto white balance, I was using custom white balance. Took a picture of a white piece of paper and used it. Forgot who told me to do that.

Well if you did that, and it worked, your white balance shouldn't fluctuate like it clearly had throughout the series.

Then you didn't set it correctly.

All you do is select CWB and click on the image you want to set it too.. Not too hard to set a few buttons don't know how I could mess up that.

Yeah, I used CA for some of them. still learning this camera. Just got it.

But obviously it didn't work if the WB fluctuates between the photos you posted. Look at the tint of the background in the first 3 photos, and them photo 4. The fourth photo has a cyan bias. The 5th photo has a magenta bias.

So if you set a custom white balance and you set it properly (as well as not mixing ambient light sources) all the white balances should be the same. Since they are not, one can only presume that the reason is user error.

Okay, so my suggestion to you is to forget that mode even exists. You hadn't mentioned that before and that would be a reason for the WB would be all over the place.

Are you using constant lights or flashes?

Constant lights.
Ahhh I see.. Thank you!
I really need a person off this forum to come with me when I shoot and help me. :Lol: I don't know anything about this camera yet, this was my first shoot with it. So i was having a hard time. I had an xsi, simple camera. I'll admit, I don't know the best modes, best ISO, best lighting sources to shoot with or anything.

LOL - ill come, ill come!

I can't remember if you said or someone asked. What version of Photoshop are you using?

Quick Edit

2- Filter > Blur> Surface Blur 20px 20 TH
3- Patch Tool (j) to get rid of bottom shades.

Note: Background looks like a gradient from original pic...??
