Beauty and the Sheet

One of quite a few shots taken, I need some help with facial

expressions. I will post a few more from this set, but would like

opinions on this shot.

Yes, I agree. But don't blame yourself for that. I have such a problem with my own models when it comes to this subject. You can help them out when it comes to the pose but how is a guy supposed to make the face he wants the model to make? Just doesnt work. I think to solve the problem I/we need to start using models who are experienced in this line of work. Sure the position of her body is great, but without the right facial experssion to set the "mood" so to speak, you've really got nothing to work with.

(In general, not this photo) The over all look of this image is nice though.

Good job on your end.

this models face is beautiful....i always feel that eye shadow ruins the effect...it takes something natural and lovely and makes it less than what it is...nice lines and softness tho...good contrast with skin and sheet fabric...

Good lighting and contrast of skin-tones and white. I would echo the comment on too much eye-shadow-with that blue color, she looks a bit like a street walker, to be honest. The facial expression is okay, looks a bit wistful, which I think would be hightened by getting rid of much of the makeup.

composition, lighting, position, model 4 me excellent. if anything I would change would be just make the sheets smooth(er)?

Photographers cannot control model's expressions specially if you intend for the image to come across as natural (my opnion of course).

I like the expression, and the model is beautiful. Lighting is just about perfect and my only negative has already been mentioned, the sheets should have been flattened out a little, too many wrinkles in the background left.

 

Your shots are consistently eye catching, great work.
