Yup, there are lots of ways to soften photos in ps. I have a particular action that I created that can do it basically 4 steps, but it only looks right on certain portraits.

p.s. I just learned that my sister-in-law and her fiance loved their engagement portraits I took, and now I'm designated as the reception photographer, lol. Too bad they're paying another photog $1400 to shoot the wedding itself (both camera and video). They should have come to me sooner, ya think??
