Extra Details: After brightening by changing the exposure of the photo a bit, I used Crying for Contrast at 47%. Then I used Cake Smash Color Pop on the balloons with the brush opacity set to 100%, I then used Eyes Wide Open (brush opacity set to 60% for the brightener, 80% for the sharpener). Last I used Print Sharpie at the 75% preset. Totally last minute shoot thrown together, but I was very happy with the results after applying Newborn Necessities!
