This will sound harsh, but you need to give more thought when taking the photograph.

By posing your subject in front of distracting background clutter, you create the need for

time-consuming modifications in PS to correct problems that could be avoided.  The door

frame, the open door, and the light switch are distractions.


A tilted photograph, unless it is done on purpose for special effect, is a distraction.  Hold

your camera level.  Generally, your photograph will be better if your camera is at the

level of the subject's face or below.  Shooting down on the subject is seldom better.


I've modified one of these for you using the same wallpaper as background.  I'd prefer a

lighter background, but I wanted to keep with your version.  The "Trick or Treat" sign can

be omitted, but that kinda dates the image for you.  Personally, I'd take it out.  In PS,

that just means deleting a layer so it's easy to do.


This is cropped to 6" x 4" for a standard print size.
