My daughter was very tired and uncooperative during this photo shoot, so I gave up on trying to pose her and just let her do what she wanted. I love her sleepy pose. I thought it was very innocent looking and pure. In post processing I applied gaussian blur in certain areas, used the healing brush for minor blemishes and blotches on her face and hands, lightened the whites of her eyes, increased the saturation on her irisis, sharpened up the eyes a bit, and some dodging/burning/levels.
