Hair

This a picture of a frind of mine who wanted to "be a model for a day". I

told her she was born for it. What do you think?

Good pose, great hair. Black sheath dress always works. (The monkey wrench of women's clothing?) Good face.

She has the look of a very successful model. Gorgeous eyes. The photographer also brought out all her wonderful features. If there is any negative to say I would say that her left elbow looks a little put of proportion from the perspective of the lens. Maybe a longer focal length lens would have remedied the situation.

I would consider this to be a flawless portrait

 

How she has avoided the photographers lens till now, is absolutely beyond me

 

She has all the classic features, as you already know

 

If she wants modeling at all, it's hers to refuse, she's a n a t u r a l

 

Your portfolio is top notch!

Very good image and lighting.

However, with a little vignetting I think you can tie the elements together even better. I did this vignetting with the Elliptical Marquee Selection tool feathered at 60 pixels, selecting the inverse. I darkened the outside of the oval with the Brightness/Contrast control.

 

If you don't find my suggestions helpful, just let me know by email and I will be glad to delete them.

Wonderful job Steve...I love what you did! Thanks so much!
