Paper texture has a direct impact on the skin texture of the subject

If you are looking for a paper that best suits your photographs, it's probably best not to use a photo of an intensely-colored or unfamiliar subject. Our advice is to prepare a photograph of a familiar subject, such as people, birds, flowers, or a landscape. This will help you to easily remember the subject's actual color. Then print the photo with the settings recommended by the manufacturer of the paper. 

Female portraits are especially helpful in understanding the characteristics of the paper and deciding whether or not it suits you, because the texture of the paper surface greatly affects how the skin appears.
