I began in Camera Raw making some general adjustments to lighting (increasing blacks and saturation). In Photoshop, I used an airbrush (30 opacity/40 flow) to make specific adjustments to soften the features.

After making some initial level adjustments in Camera RAW (in particular increasing blacks and slightly increasing saturation), I turned to Photoshop applying some airbrushing to the parents faces to blend some of the strong evening light. Using Photoshop’s replace color, I took the wife’s shirt and replaced the color with a bright purple.
