Tom,
Good start for just 4 hrs.
Just a quick look at the finished image I see 2 situations.
1. Male forehead is blown out.
2. Male nose is also blown out.
Other than those 2, at a quick glance, I did not see other situations in the image.

Tom, I am just wondering, are you using RAW or JPG file for editing?
If you are using RAW, I would suggest you try to feed JPG straight into PP.
Set skin smoothing a bit lower - perhaps by half. Adjust the tan slider a little to the left.
Slim her face a little bit. Using the "Before and After" screen, go to the "Before" and adjust (click and drag) the outlines.

This may be a bit late to answer, but here it goes;
i think the main problems with this image are:
blown highlights and over saturation of the skin colors.
have you tried to make those faces look like you were looking at them in person? looking real?
RE: My first attempt with pp - Gellidius - 04-09-2014
re. my previous post above, i downloaded your image and did some work on it with PP12;
mind you, i have had the program only for a few days, so you will surely find many things to correct on top of what i've done here, like the haiirline, mainly for the man.
hope you like it! [attachment=636]
