lex_jenkins Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 <p>Striking. I can't offer any critiques or suggestions. But you piqued my curiosity enough to look for your Flickr stream, which I seldom bother to do after seeing most first efforts at fashion photography. I'd only say... keep doing it.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaelmowery Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 <p>I don't know if I would classify that as fashion but in any case the lighting looks good. The retouching is a bit much.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Johnson Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 <p>The lighting looks good for someone starting, the first shot appears to be a form of clamshell lighting:<br> http://www.lighting-essentials.com/clamshell-lighting-for-a-glamourous-headshot/<br> The second shot shows you know how to get bokeh.<br> Keep up the good work.<br> There's not a big market for headdresses, have you got any pics of a dress someone might be trying to sell?</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_wilson1 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Very nice. As I was taught along the way, and I am by far not a fashion expert, but I learned from a few great mentors, study all the classic publications like Vogue, harpers and New York Times Fashion editions when they come out on certain weekends to see the styles and trends and study the layouts and lighting etc. Let me just add that when you use the hands as in the first photo they are sometimes referred to as "headache poses" and get tired fast. So while it's always cool to use the hands, they can make or break what you're trying to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
style_jeni Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 <p>Wow, very nice. Well done. Wish you best luck!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gabriel_solis Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 <p>To build on what Dave says, hands can make or break a photo. In that first photo her right (lower) hand has a lot of tension. It doesn't look elegant. From this angle, it appears lumpy and awkward. Guide your model to soften those fingers, and make sure the perspective doesn't make the fingers look weird. I suggest you study up on Sue Bryce to learn about "ballet" hands. It has helped me immensely! </p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdo Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 <p>Hi Aphikrit,<br> That are my suggestion IMHO:<br> <strong>In the first picture:</strong><br> For your first time fashion-photography you are done a great work. Gut composition, color and contrast.<br> Just try to eliminate the red color of the vein in the white part and also try to make a little less strong the retouch in the skin on the face and also little bite softer.<br> <strong>In the second picture:</strong><br> Try to correct the effect of the lens with software: fish eye correction, just a little bit, in this way look more natural.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
