Edited with iPhoto...too much fun!

Before I even read about the dodge and burn tool, I went through a recent photo shoot and edited them on my iPhoto. Photoshopped photos to come soon! 

At first, I had a lot of trouble with the lighting and the clarity of the water. I played a lot with the lighting, matting, temperature and the sharpness of each photo. For most of them, I had very little idea as to what I was doing - I usually just press buttons until something happens haha.
