Estelle 2

Very fashion

Eldor,

Estelle is a very pretty girl. You have focused well on her eyes. She has good eye contact with the camera (viewer). I like her rather seductive expression. The background is nicely neutral and she is well separated from it. Your compositional balance is very good. Her skin tone looks very nice.

The delicate contrast and color saturation work nicely with her blonde hair and soft muted colors. I wouldn't have minded enhancing the tones a bit to make her stand out a little more. 

Her catchlights are good, but would be better if they were a little more intense. Good catchlights with well applied eyeliner under her eyes will frame her eyes and make them stand out.

The brick pattern is not very annoying, but if you would have moved her father away from the background and let it go out of focus a bit she certainly would have stood out better. It would have enhanced the illusion of depth within your photograph.

Her make-up is very natural looking. I would like to see just a tad more color on her lips. The color of her lips is very close to her skin color.  A little more eye make-up would make her eyes stand out even better.

Even though she has a beautiful figure, I would have turned her body slightly to the camera. It would have made her look even thinner, more feminine, graceful and elegant.

Nice shot,

Nice shot, beautiful model! Best regards, Ilkka

Very beautifully done. I think Estelle will be happy with this image now and 50 years from now. Very sensual pose and just beautiful eye contact. I imagine that you were trying to capture that mystical quality that makes women so wonderful. In that you have a great success here.

I like the portrait and the tension of her look into the camera. Well done!
