I wanted to manipulate the photography I took of my model so that it will make the image look more attractive and to make it stand out better against the background.

This is the original image without any effects.

I looked at image adjustments and decided to experiment with altering the brightness and contrast. I only changed the brightness slightly because the lighting in the photo already worked well, however adding more brightness made the models face lighter and made her stand out against the background. I improved the contrast more than the brightness this gave the photo shadows and more depth, making my model appear more attractive which will increase the appeal for the reader.
