I will advise on pulling back on the sharpening or just doing spot sharpening to specific areas.
Else the complexion becomes bad with blanket sharpening.

Otherwise, nice B/W shot.

Many of your shots are nice:thumbsup:, but the model skin is not very flattering, especially at the area on the fore head.
This could be easily fixed in lightroom by softening the skin or PS it.

Any tips or trick, if PP too much it will looks like those wedding photo, too soft, and too smooth.

maybe you can try in LR clarity and sharpness -20 to -40. just a little to retain the texture.

If you using lightroom, Go to develop module >click on the adjustment brush> select soften skin> use the adjustment brush and paint over the skin & pull down the "clarity" slider, the skin will be blurred out. before u do any skin softening , it's
best to use the "spot removal" to remove any blemishes. If in doubt check on youtube, lightroom on skin soften.
How much to adjust it's base on your preference, but it's best to have a natural looking retouching.

No, pulling down the clarity slider will soften the overall image. You need to use the adjustment brush > select skin soften & paint over the skin instead. Hope this helps!
