FreezGee33: Yes, actually, every one of these pictures are edited. Some more than others. Mainly I simply adjusted the Exposure, Black Balance, Contrast, Clarity and Saturation. Though none are too far off from the original photo, with the exception of Hospital Clean. That one took major editing because the lighting in the room was off and, as others were pointing out, the difference in her skin tones can be distracting (she doesn't actually have different skin tones, the glare from the lighting just made it look like she did).
Again, thank you all so much for all your comments, suggestions and critiques!
