I like both. I don't see the lavender cast that Pedro mentions on this Mac monitor.
The only things I see to do would be crop the bottom a bit if it fits the printers format, and maybe brighten up the one tooth that is in the shadow of her smile just a little. The printer may do a better job with the toned one. Shallow DOF is ok with me as it accents the pixie eyes above the dimple in the chin.
I am just a casual observer in the studio field, as it is not my field of experience, so this is just my unqualified opinion. |

this looks very similar to the quad that i usually use...not sure if it's just me/my monitor but it has a slight lavender cast to the skin. Ken Lee authored a couple of quads - one of which has a lavender bent to it - that looks a lot like this. i find it better for inanimates, and tend to go with a more earthy tone for faces.
very unusual to hear me say this, but i'm with you - I prefer the colour; it seems richer and more full of life.
for whatever it's worth, that's my opinion :)

I would go with the toning, it is just a little cleaner, allows the viewer to focus on Michelle rather than be distracted by the colors. |
