The models face was changed in many ways including:
-Her eyes were made larger
-Her neck was lengthened
-Her eye brows were raised
-Reshaped her head and neck
-Made her lips more plump
-Her acne was covered even more then the make-up could do
All of these changes were unethical. That's not what the women looks like at all. By the end, it hardly resembled her at all. By doing this, girls are taught their whole life that that's what your suppose to look like when its unrealistic. It makes girls feel ugly when they really aren't.
I think that all situations are unethical. Sometimes they don't alter the woman's appearance that much and its not as bad but its still wrong.
I think that all changes are wrong and shouldn't be done. I personally have felt bad about myself because of photos like that. You just shouldn't make her into a plastic barbie look.
The difference between fashion photography and photojournalism is that its not a fashion photographers job to tell the truth, its their job to take a good photo of a stereotypical pretty woman or man. They are linked though because they both effect people. People see these photos and they change that person and its not right to be lied to. They are two different industries so they aren't going to follow the same rules. One is obviously going to be more ethical then the other.
