Kind of looks like it huh?
I was actually at twin peaks in SF. It over looks all of downtown SF and the Golden Gate Bridge. That street that looks like a airplane runway is Market Street and at the very end of it is the Ferry building.
I used my 70-200mm for those shots.

If you're going to start taking more of these beauty shots you should start looking into playing around with diffusion filters on your lenses. It would make all the difference on her skin.

Constructive criticism from me though would be to get a reflector from the bottom to avoid the shadows over her eyes. That's one of the hardest things to deal with for flash illuminated shots.

But there is so much in the way of diffusion and strengths that you can control the image without degrading it. Different diffusions yield different effects which can actually enhance your shot if you know what you're doing.
Its another tool in the tool box.

IMO diffusion filters aren't the way to go for this sort of thing. It blurs out details in places you want it. You can post process in smoother skin no problem.
Constructive criticism from me though would be to get a reflector from the bottom to avoid the shadows over her eyes. That's one of the hardest things to deal with for flash illuminated shots.

You can do it in post if you have the knowledge and the time.
But there is so much in the way of diffusion and strengths that you can control the image without degrading it. Different diffusions yield different effects which can actually enhance your shot if you know what you're doing.
