their portrait photos. The skin/face would look super smooth and pretty much like a blur.. Just doesn't look right to me.  ???

I think that look came from those Vietnamese photo studio photos but overly done.  I haven't seen those for ages!  But, I can definitely understand what you mean.

It depends on the look that the photographer is trying to achieve. Different client prefer different looks and skin tone.

Or photos that's been dodged and burned and sponged heavily? Where's the inspiration in that?

Maybe they're going for the cold, scary or lonely, uncomfy feel?  I'm a fan of that look.
