She has great legs!!
It was a bit chilly out and had planned to do some swimwear shots but it had started to sprinkle. She wasn't really experienced but took direction pretty well. You're right about the legs and the rest was model worthy as well, but a lot of repetitive expression and posing. All in all, it went pretty good. I think we'll shoot again soon.
I love the concept of shots like this but thought this particular one was more poignant:

Don't mean to offend, but is the previous lady a country music artist and looking for some shots for a cd cover?
Very reminiscent of one Miss Becky Hobbs.............
I think you have a great eye for shading and colors.
Nope, but after I did a search I can see a resemblance. Thanks, Pap, I think I'm more talented at covering up my mistakes. I had all sorts of problems with lighting on this shoot, probably because I was out of practice and hadn't tinkered with the camera in months. This shoot seems to be getting some exposure in the surrounding modeling community and I'm getting interest expressed from a few sources again so I hope I'll be honing my skills again soon. This one wants to shoot again within a week weather permitting. Figures things are warming up now that the weather is getting cold. :533:
badrose, I absolutely love your black and white shots!! There's just something about b&w that's eye catching to me.
I love this one. A lot of emotion in this picture.Quote:

My friends refuse to let me take their pics at parties because I have a knack for making them look their absolute worst. I'm the antithesis of a good people photographer. Nature and city scapes on the other hand I love doing though I just use my cellphone. I often get good enough results from it though.Quote:

Most of the models I work with aren't really models in the commercial sense, but want the experience and something to show for it. Here's a less edited version: http://i892.photobucket.com/albums/a...psb8d3fa24.jpg Not a huge difference, but I defer unless I feel strongly about a particular effort.Quote:

I need to learn your post edit skills.
'murica!!

Great eyes and lips, though had suffered from acne, I assume, as a teen, so I had some post work to do. We shot at her house which she shared with her boyfriend who made himself scarce for the most part in other rooms.
Winner winner lobster dinner!!!Quote:
