Final Image, Edit and Outcome

 

The top image is my final edited image of the original image which is the photo below it. I had a photographer edit the background, the hair, the costume and match up the skin tones slightly, where I hadn't taken the makeup far down enough. I think a lighter wig would've helped the overall effect, but the only options I could find where blond or a darker brown. I'm really pleased with the overall effect. I think the editing did what I could've done with more time and a better initial image, so I don't feel this edited final image is too 'fake'.
