Added a little extra fill flash with an off camera flash and one of
those remote triggers from the camera for this image. Tried
something different with the white balance on this one also by
shooting on flouresent mode and once it was in photoshop I
simply clicked on the auto color and this is the results from that.

Hey,

I like the image but, there seems to be a little shadow cast on the wall behind her. Was that planned or not with your testing? I like the look on my monitor of the overall balance. Is that something you do or something you are trying? I never thought of it and am tying to create tan skin by shooting on cloud and + or - 3 on the hue. I like the results but, not all of them. However, I do like your image here.

Take care and be safe.
God be with you,
Tony

Looks good, however you may want to darken the background just a bit. It looks a little overpowering as is, just tone it down a notch and see if you like it!

The shadow was cast by the off camera flash that was mounted on a tripod.
It turned out to be brighter than the outside light in that area. Normally I will
shoot on the type of white balance settings that you mention, such as cloudy
or shade to warm the colors, but there were several that I shot on flouresent
just to see what the results would be. The original images have slighty cooler
color tints on them but turned very natural when auto color was applied on
photoshop.

I like it, the background does look a bit out of range, but the model and skin tone look really nice. Was there someting to her left? Only mention it because the way the shadow to her right and the wall to her left appear to be the same brightness. The wall to the left of the shadow apprears lighter.

It was probably due to the flash being to my right and directed towards
the model at an angle that caused the shadow to appear to one side
of her and leaving part of the wall looking more bright than the other side.
