Portrait No. 1

Her very first photo shoot. This particular photo was taken in naturallight filtering in through the window behind her.

I am especially looking for constructive comments (whether positiveor negative!) on technique, pose, etc. as I am developing her portfolio.

To contact this model, please send me an email

Mark, I like the portrait and I look forward to seeing more of your work with her.

 

A couple of suggestions I would offer. I would probably lose the framing. I would crop a bit from the top just above her hair. I like the softness which pervades the image in general. I would also add some softness for the space just right (from the viewer's perspective) of her right arm; i.e the area below where her hands meet.

 

 

Hi Amar. Thanks a lot for the comments. I'd forgotten that the photo background on PNet is grey, so I'll get rid of the frame because it blends in with the background. I uploaded this photo hurriedly last night.

I'll also try out your other suggestions. Thanks so much for looking, rating and commenting!

Best regards from Kenya, Mark

Beautiful portrait. Classic pose but very well captured. Yes, the frame blends with the background...

Took out the frame. You can view the framed version here...

I love this, the pose is very good, and the blown out effect works great. It creates an awesome dreamy effect. Good work!

Great image!Great tones and lighting ! Soft light, angle of light, angle of cammera...Beautiful image!

Congrats!
