I do enjoy your content, but I thought this example was a bit off. 5: 33 There are only minor light sources coming from the left (as you look at the image. This is generating the top hair shadow, plus some other jacket shadow detail (right) Studio setup will no doubt have a number of lights/strobes for key/fill lights etc. This portrait (face) is mainly lit right of centre (from camera) and raised - you can see the catch light in her eye for position. Your application of shadow to the mainly lit area (nose) appears to be an odd choice as this is in the direction of the main light. Consequently, your overall application of shadow has not enhanced the image, it has confused it. The photographer got exactly what he wanted. No adds/omits required.

Hey Unmesh, thank you for more this great video. I would like to know from you, in a portrait,
which of the retouching steps do you prefer to do on Lightroom, and which ones you prefer on Photoshop.
I usually make only the raw edits on LR, and then go to PS to make the rest, like wrinkles removal, dodge n burn, color grading. etc
How is your workflow? You could make a video about this too. Thank you

Great tutorial although I found it hard to actually pay attention as the batman symbol on your head was distracting
